I'm interested in doing a 1.9L VW TDI engine swap possibly. I've done a little bit of research and this swap seems very doable without a lot of effort and expense. The 3.0L I've got is a dog though and I don't want to spend money and effort to end up with another dog that gets better gas mileage.
I want to tow a 3000 lb trailer and want to get decent acceleration performance and maybe a little less than 30 mpg.
It seems that the VW TDI may be a little small to get decent performance so I'll ask what you folks think. Is there a better choice?
