....can i simply shorten the actuator rod for a slight increase in power from a cheap old banger diesel runaround?

 

oh god

get a t4

 

i have a spare t34.63 in my shed but its far to big...
im just looking for a no expence slight adjustment to give it that little bit more go. its only done 60000 miles so it should handle it i reckon

 

Pull the pressure pipe off the actuator - garunteed full boost

 

think you have to adjust the fuel pressure too, but not sure that's possible on a dirty old astra

 

thats been mentioned to me already, i believe it is possible on the isuzu made engine thats fitted to this astravan.
someones said adjust until it bellows black smoke on full throttle and fit a bleed valve, im not sure about bleed valves so was going to adjust the actuator rod.
its a 450 quid banger so its not the end of the world if it breaks

 

go for it; just 1 turn at a time tho, otherwise it might be the quickest astra van in the world for 30 seconds

 

no, that doesnt work, ask the turbo specialist cossie4i uses
