HI Abo Bob,

You can bump up the boost but its very important to have this done professionally as you will need to increase the diesel this is not like a petrol car to much fuel is actually as bad or worse then to lean increasing the exhaust temps will melt a piston and making them to cold will melt a piston i think the exhaust temp has to be 550Degrees ?and this is checked by a pyrometer (anyone can tell me im wrong here).

So once again take it to a diesel mechanic or somewhere similar that can adjust pump rates on your diesel accuratley.

Exhaust modss i have seen increase power on non-turbo diesels so I would assume they would help on the turbo diesels once again ask a diesel mechanic.

BR,

Yep Ive seen peugeot turbo diesels,

yep japsky33 is right you can adjust the boost, fit a bigger exhaust and intercooler and a cold air intake, even with all this it aint goin to give you a big power gain.

Diesel is all about fuel, the more you can give it the better.. BUT the only problem is diesel is a slow burning fuel so exhauts temp is the main killer with diesel engines

best bet is go and buy a VL turbo or a Skyline, theory is bang for your bucks dude!!!

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
