I like that 59 mpg rating. Now all they have to do is up that 120hp and the 214 pound ft of torque to decrease the 10.2 sec 0-62mph to less that 8 seconds and I'll line up for it. Even if the mpg's are down to the low 40's

Yeah but what happens to the mpg after all those mods?

And the stinky smoky exhaust that's common with modded diesels.

me like 59mpg. when i was in europe for the summer, i drove a mercedes dieseld 2.0L. I averaged high 40's to low 50's in that car and on long trips i was getting around 60.

That is what we should have here in the US, not those hybrid POS

Looking at MTM's website (http://www.mtm-online.de/en/index.php?nav=3&FZID=A4B8105TDI&Kitnum=m-3a4143170fx)there really isn't mods for the new engine. But mods for the 2.0 tdi only up the power to 170hp and they don't quote 0-60 times. But fuel economy does not suffer.
the nice thing about diesel tuning is essentially the more fuel and air you can flow into the chamber the more power, and your can just crank the boost up. Gas we have to keep ratios correct and have all this management software. Diesel just flow more air more gas you go faster.

Yours might be like mine, we don't have the controls on the stock for the mdf.
