Adjusting the maximum fuel screw

[theman53]

seriously, this has been discussed a million times. Read the FAQ. Yes there is like 8 pages but find the ones that say something like "make your 1.6TD a faster car" or same but 1.9 or 1.6 na.

Boosting above your turbos stock  range will add some heat regardless of fuel.

If fueling remains the same, adding more boost lowers EGTs, it doesn't raise them.  

Once you go off the sweet spot on the compressor map, and your turbo has become a choke point,  possibly coupled with restrictive exhaust, it will generate more heat than boost.

Ta all,I'll fit the egt gauge as soon as possible.
The "jx" engine was only fitted to the T3 van [my syncro included].
My plan is to remove the turbo and drill the exhaust manifold from the underneath.
Any comments?

A search here will yield more detail, but grease on the drill and the tap should keep the big bits out.

I remember saying I was going to install an EGT. Not doing it (before I upped the boost and fuel) is where I went wrong.
