How to get more power out of a Golf TDI?

I've got a 2010 Golf TDI and i want to get more power out of it. I know i can't do much about the exhaust to this car so im more likely to get a new chip. Any suggestions?How to get more power out of a Golf TDI?Contrary to what Hank said, a simple ECU tune can produce huge gains in turbo diesels. VW's TDI's are no exception. Since this is a newer car, you will not be using a "chip" for ECU tuning, You'll be using a hand held tuner or a laptop.How to get more power out of a Golf TDI?Turbo diesels are for mileage not performance. There is no real way to get more performance from a turbo diesel without major modification. Adjusting the fuel mapping isn't really an option either because ignition works differently in diesel (no plugs) so adding fuel probably will just decrease gas mileage and not increase power.How to get more power out of a Golf TDI?Have it re-mapped, Or a new ECU put in. Dont bother with the bigger exhaust etc for what they cost, They give little performance increase.
