more boost

recently read on a website that if you shorten the acctuator lever bar it will increas the boost of your turbo. i think he did it to a 200tdi. eill this work on my td. and also if it does work whats a safe bosst increase?
cheers,tom.

Can't remember It tells yer in Haynesiz, but it int summat to be trifled with.

why not, wat could possibly go wrong an imminent 200tdi retrofit couldn't sort out

It's the trifle bit, I had it on my mind to get some for Yaaaarksheeer day, you know the little individual ones with pubic hairs in them.

Diesel .... heat engine ..... compression ignition .... air is good .... more air is more good ... more pressure = more air .... cooler air = more air ... cooler air at lower pressure = best ....

Ram it in guys!

A 200 tdi and a 300 tdi probably cannot hit excessive pressures anyway.

You MIGHT hoick them up to about 1.4 bar or so, which would be OK.

Possibly seen my post / site..

Ive done my 200TDI and more details pics and a step by step guide is on my site

STEVES SITE

its in the defender section on page 19, now running approx 16psi

DO NOT UP THE BOOST ON A TD you will kill it , the engines are weak at best and do not like extra heat.... mine was originally a TD so dont ask how I know

Cheers Steve

install a boost gauge to be safe

go on, do it....then tell us how long the TD lasted
