Ahh Hillfolk... I've been waiting for you to chime in, I've admired your setup and such from afar for a while now... I've been tuning my diesel on a shoestring budget as I'm a automotive student
(on a side note, I'm the only vw guy... let alone the ONLY diesel guy in a class full of ford and chev V8 guys)
most of the modifications I want to do to this diesel have to be either free, cheap or stolen 
<jk>
Now I have a few questions that have been brewing in my head...
How is the atomization; has it effected your impeller fins at all?
How long have you been running it?
What sort of jets should I use; do you have any recommendations?
It would be connected to a switch, correct?
What's the use cycle like?
When should it be engaged and for how long?
could it be wired up to a switch mounted on the IP so when the throttle's down, it'll kick in?
just some questions and an idea thrown in there.
um ive been running this basic setup for like 2 maybe almost 3 years now,somethin like that
my ol garrett compressor side looked fine,no erosion or anything
do ya have an old carburetor laying around from anything?even a lawnmower? so you can steal some jets
i think the orig jet i used was like an .050 hole
did you see my new"jet"?
you could hook it to a psi switch,or wot switch,or a combo of both
but i just have a button taped to the shifter knob
i activate it almost any time i floor it,or my boost is over 5-10 psi
ive held it on as long as ive had my foot to the floor,i dont think ive floored it for more than 20 seconds though(um 14.1-2-3 seconds in 1/4,doing 95+)
i dunno if id want it hooked up to just a wot switch,cause you can wot and not have boost
i sorta like tha manual button i got
i made the wires loong,so i can untape it from the shifter,and retape it to the steering wheel for the drags,its a pita to hit the button and shift,i learned fast at the drags
you sound like a perfect candidate for my setup(starving student)
mines free if ya got stuff in the garage,or real cheap
a carb jet,some tubing,an a2 washer bottle,and washer fluid+you are there
screw paying 300 bucks,so it"atomizes more finely"
you dont even need a carb jet really,solder a piece of(guage tubing) 1/8 inch copper tube shut+drill a small hole+make it larger until its what you need
actually,i got vw return line hooked to that 1/8 copper,then another piece of rubber,then into my new jet
the new jet"flows the same" as before,because i think the copper tubing is the restriction
mine doubles in value when i fill the washer bottle with blue stuff for a buck
pretty hard for water to get flung to the sides,when its being drawn in anyways
i "tested" the hydrolock capabilities one night,i was doin like 60 in top gear,like 5 psi,,well the engine started missing after like 10 seconds of holding on the button steady,so its pretty safe
even if it isnt an efficient setup,washer fluid is a dollar,it wont break the bank,so what if you even use 2x as much to get the same power as a "kit"?
i romp it hard,and i do 400 miles each week just for work alone ,and i use like 2/3 maybe 3/4(severe beating) of a gallon a week
then ive driven 500 miles to ny,and barely used it, its all hiway
i heard somewhere that an "average" is like 1 gallon every 1000 miles i dunno
hope this post isnt too run on,and is readable,lol
