Top one's the crankcase valve. I haven't looked at my TD one in a while, but if it's giving you problems (oil in your intake), you can do WingNut's CCV v 3.0 from tdiclub.

The other one looks like your Wastegate, but I'm not sure. Again, the TD has been sitting in the street for 6 months now. I hardly remember what anything looks like.

bottom is a BOV... it leaks boost at 10-12psi so you don't get too carried away with power.

you can tighten it up or cap it so it doesn't leak.

by doing so would maintain teh boost correct. i think ill wait till next week or so when i get a boost gauge.

There's some wastegate and BOV mods that you can do to get more air. It's like the "bible" article here. I just can't find it.

You'll want to increase your fueling at the same time if you're dumping more air into the system, so I'd look at doing the governor'ectomy mod to retard the level at which the fuel starts cutting off. If you start pushing silly power later, look into the GTD injectors and an upgraded pump. Knowing you're on a student budget, I'm saying you probably want to put those off. The first mods are pretty much free. The latter ones will cost you over $1000.

Lastly, start looking for an intercooler. The TDs don't have them stock, so your turbo blows hot air right back into the intake manifold. Cooling that pressurized air will make your car run better.

ya im getting my car all planned out, i already increased the fuel a little, (not the gov mod) but enough that i notice more power, so now i just wanna up the boost a bit to add to the fuel, this sumemr will be intercooler.
