i run 300ml in every tank seems to quieten it down abit lol

anyone know where to get creepys for a good price??

hey guys does anyone know the A/R specs of the standard/factory td42 turbo's or does anyone have one thay want to get rid of?

cheers Jacob

just remember that no 2 injector pump are going to be the same just coz one guy turns diesel up one turn doesnt mean you will be able to do the same Also the more boost you run the lower your egt's will be eg. so if you can get 15psi with out turning the fuel up your egt's should get lower the best ...

cheers guys and yea at this stages i have a feeling it could be a tired engine but don't want to have to tell him that lol
