What's a TDi?

Can we convert our normal diesel engines into TDi's?

Hindi ba TDi means TurboDiesel Injected? Halos lahat naman ng diesel engines ay injected (so solve na tayo sa "i" part). In theory, any engine can be turbocharged.

thanks for the info. all this time i thought the "i" in TDi meant intercooler... yun kasi ang nakikita ko sa mga sticker palagi

Pero kung ganun lang ang definition....how come the Big Horn's TDi makes a real difference in fuel consumption and speed???

So its' intercooled Turbo Diesel na fuel Injected???

TDi? di ba turbo direct inject? direct injection diesel engine with turbo booster? yun ang alam ko but am not sure. first time na na-encounter ko yang acronym na yan e sa VW jetta ata yon -- when they raced a TDi powered jetta or some other VW car against gas engines.

i think TDi means turbo diesel intercooled also

"i" is common shorthand for electronic fuel injection if i'm not mistaken... hindi yata intercooled ibig sabih nun. i think TDi stands for fuel-injected turbodiesel

VW uses TDi for some of their turboed models that are not intercooled
