The current diesel has 148hp but a tuned version could easily put out 180-200hp.
200hp is a conservative figure for sure. For comparison the stock 1.9 TDI engine is 100 hp, while the 1.9 Race TDI engine puts out 190 hp with bigger holes, a bigger turbo and a bigger fuel pump.

I'm pretty sure there will be someone getting that beast close to 300 hp.
