1) installing an intercooler.
2) installing a boost gauge and a pyrometer (tap in thermocouple pre-turbine).
3) upping your boost to 24 PSI or so if you have a T3 or K24.
4) upgrading your fuel pump and setting its timing to 1.05mm. Doing the fuel governor mod and turning up fuel IQ is decent, but there's still more than that.. i.e. upgrading camplate to 1.9. That should be enough for 110HP.
Hey, malone, is that really needed?! I got a little "scared" with that 24PSI (1.65bar!!) for "only" ~110hp! :|
What about with 1.0-1.2bar? How much power would you expect to reach (doing all the other mods and proper inj pump tuning) :?:

24 PSI may not be needed for 110HP... you can turn down the boost until you find the most efficient spot (in regards to power/smoke ratio and EGT). 24 PSI / 1.65bar with a healthy stock T3 or K24 turbo isn't that excessive IMO.

Yeah, my fear is more about the motor itself than the turbo :!:
What do you think? Are my concerns funded?

thats it!!!! *** son you have a customer...next month that is, gotta make the money first Ya i know which exhaust ill probably be getting, i know the intercooler, so ya sweet.
I can fab quite quickly, its just natural for me
Pm me and we can work it out for ya.
HP,
24 psi is no danger zone for your engine I've had a few 1.6's running 30-35 psi on the stock turbo on a stock engine with only fuel and exhaust mods, NO aftercooler, with no issues. Yes I know thats way out of the turbos effeciency range bla bla but it just shows that you dont HAVE to have a aftercooler or worry about your engine at those boost levels. Remember that fuel=power, not boost, if you went and dissabled your wastegate you might hit 24 psi but you arent going to get much more power than you have now, but if you match your fuel for 24 psi of boost than hot damn she will scoot

hehe... np
ya mine runs hot when I give her. It skyrockets up to the 3rd tick from the right, and balances out at around the 4th tick after a few mins of cooling off. My other diesel was a whole lot different though... 1.6 mech lifters. That thing never seemed to get too hot, unless I was booting it on the highway. I'm going to have to guess thermostat/water pump being the culprits, and possibly having the smaller K14 turbo?

Yeah man I know what you are saying hahaha, its cold here no doubt, I remember when I first got into diesels I was still living in san diego, I called one of my buddies in canada and I was liek dude its november here and its cold my diesel isnt starting as good as it used too, and he liek well how cold man, and I was like I dunno about 60 degree's hahaha he called me a whining ***.
Yes the k14 will definately make your engine run hotter, your oil temps especially, first thing I notice on the 1.9's when I put a bigger turbo on is the drop in oil temps.
