I have a 1.6l na and in pursuit of more power, but don't plan on making the switch to Turbo quite yet. I've heard many good things about Giles' injection pump rebuilds but not quite convenced that it's worth the money. So what i'm asking is for others that have these pumps or have been around these pumps and what their impression of them was. Also how well do his tuned pumps do on a naturally aspirated diesel. Any info would be great. Thanks Cambo

I've seen some impressive dyno differences.
20% increase sometimes. I'm sure Tyler or Giles him self will post some data sheets for you. Have you looked at his web site?

Here is the link to his site. Tyler is running a Giles pump in an N/A application. I think he's been happy with it. In fact, I've yet to hear anyone say that it wasn't worth the money...

If anyone has any vids of these pumps in action that would also be great info, also if you'all don't mind me asking, how much does it cost for a 1.6l IP rebuild if i supply the core?

Wow, that's an awesome deal with the poor exchange rate these days.

Giles' very first crack at a performance n/a pump, 5 years ago, gained 22hp at the wheels on his delivery rabbit. 22!! No other mods. That's the same HP and more torque than the 1.7L gas rabbits.
His pumps have come a long way since then.
DEFINITELY worth the money.
This one isn't n/a, but it's a rabbit with a Giles pump in action.
2nd gear burnout with a peloquin differential.

It doesn't like the cold. It took about 1 minute of straight cranking to get it started in -22. The starter is crap on it so I don't mind wearing it out.
Looks like I might not have a choice though...
BOT though...
