http://youtu.be/sPpLxYA6VNU sick power! although i hope it doesn't end like this one: http://youtu.be/wgmSiOTUQmg

I can feel this is going to be mental!

Well the bottomline is every component is able to make more power but is restricted by the fuel delivery. That's exactly the reason we are trying to find out feasable ways to improve the pumps flow. As mentioned in the thread it seems the fords have exactly the same pump (although we haven't...

Because we want more then that, isn't that clear? the thing is, with only basic mods these engines should be capable of producing much more power and retaining awesome mpg when cruising. So why wouldn't we? as you're a diesel engineer: how would you think we could improve the pumps flow...

I think it's only needed when you go real far but every little bit helps ofcourse. although as long as we don't ramp up the fuel pressure it won't get hotter...

Let us know what you've achieved afterwards mate!

Well he said he has to use standalone management because of it so i don't think it's possible. imo if we find out a pump swap or lift pump won't work, fitting a smaller pulley is the easiest way. Only downside i can think of is the pump will wear faster.

Hms, did you just put in the crdi injectors and drove with it was a remap neccesarily? i read a lot of vw guys just fit bigger nozzles without a remap...

Here is a nice thread of a fiesta 1.6tdci on passionford: http://www.passionford.com/forum/showthread.php?t=432786&styleid=5 made 156bhp and 260lb/ft with just basic mods, should be possible with a dci too when the fuel system is sufficient enough.

I disagree on that statement, torque will always have a peak and then drop of as a result of revs. That's just laws of physics. However it is possible to map out the torque peak to prevent gearbox/clutch breakage and then indeed torque could be flat from 2000-3600.

Hms, remapped dci's go more to 270nm. 200nm is standard for the 100. afaik boxes break when they're abused, with the linear power of the dci and day to day driving i don't think the problem will be that big. More concerned bout the clutch though. 172 clutches are known to hold 300nm so my...

I know how power/torque works but as mentioned my guess is a petrol turbo'ed engine is harder on the box than a dci. Yes the 100 block is different, it has the same mounting point layout as the tl4 equipped engines. I think a dual mass is only fitted to tl4 equipped engines. jr5 doesn't have a...

One thing i do wonder though, torque is always said to be the cause of breaking gearboxes. however i had a 2.0 turbo with unknown torque but it broke traction in second and occasionally in 3rd. if the torque from a diesel is higher but doesn't break traction, isn't more hp with less torque more...

Makes sense then :)

I have the 2 side by side and can't see why the 02m will be any weaker tbh. afaik they're proven at over 800bhp launching with 4x4. First thing to let go is the housing around that sort of power, rips open at the bearing end.

Hope i'll find myself in the same situation sometime soon too :p Shame the car tuning market in the Netherlands is nowhere near as big as the UK!

Why don't you just use a 02m bellhousing mate? Iirc the 02Q housing is a tad deeper so may cause clutch problems too.

I'm running a gt3071-wg .64 on my williams engine. Full boost of 15psi around 3500rpm. 330hp at the crank so far with only a base map made by myself. dunno what the t25 iwg will do but my goal is around 400 too. guess a helix will be okay depending on the torque, you could always map out the...

fastchip has done an RS 4 so maybe you could contact him :)

The question is, will it help/work.

Hhmmm you may have a point there, will pop the bonnet later today to check...

I hope we'll find out mate! Would be great when dieselbob reports back! How much torque did yours run with the 143bhp?

And then go for a mapping session again? :D hopefully we'll find out soon. Only problem for me is i don't have anyone near to map it... do you have an uprated clutch too Hms?

Could be worthfull to try and fit a clio sport intank pump. regarding the bottom-end, i'm lucky having a dci 100. would be interesting what bob finds out! If it turns out the pump flow the same then probably it's because of the lift pump which would be great news!

Yeah true but that wouldn't be that hard. Arleast it fits decent between the beams etc. or find yourself some 100 hoses which won't be easy :p

No exactly the same, only the left one is a little bit lower so it was a bit of a stretch with the original hoses.

and for half the price of a 100 intercooler :D

just fitted the dacia intercooler, it's only mounted with a few zipties atm but i can tell you it fits like a charm! only had to cut of a few small bits and it sits perfectly now. made a few pics for reference:

Found it after searching part databases, measurements where given so i could make a good comparison. i think the hose connection are a bit wider from eachother but anyway makes for a good priced intercooler :) cost €157 here in nl but after searching the pn on google i found daciashop :p

imo if an engine is healthy acl won't help a thing, isn't the oil film suppose to lubricate and keep the journal from touching the bearing?
