How to disable your 1.6TD's blow off valve

Than don't get them to do your intercooler either.  I would much rather see a crush bent exhaust than crush bent charge piping.

I don't know
The other day i heard a dodge diesel that had a very loud blow off valve. Has anyone tried one and can conferm they won't give you the cool pssssst sound?

What would be a decent PSI to turn the boost on my turbo up to? Can't I get a aftermarket BOV that will allow for higher PSI and yet keep me from over pressure and enging damage?
I want a quick diesel that I can drive everyday without worries.

got this mod done at the weekend to my car, plus a bit more fuel, and its like a different motor, well recomended.

I have a 1.6 TD in my Samurai. I did the gov mod and the advance spring mod to the Lime Green spring. Just put boost and pyro on and get 9psi boost and in 4th and 5th pulling hard the EGT goes to 1400° and would probably go higher if I was pulling a long hill. I blocked the BOV with a bolt with no change in boost. I have a T-3 turbo. I added a manual boost control and before I got it set it would bury the 15 psi boost gage. I set it at 12 psi. This seems to keep the EGT down some. I have never seen smoke. At what boost pressure does the increase in boost cause higher air temperature out of the turbo to the point it doesn't do any good to raise boost? I do not have a intercooler. I am not looking for more power. In a 2100 pound Samurai its plenty. I just want to cool the EGT.

Scott,

PM me your email, I've got the whole thread and more saved into one word.doc,

Easiest way is to undo the screw in the plastic cover, with a slotted screwdriver. Under that there is another screw which applies pressure to the valve via a spring.

Tighten this screw down - job done.
