Wazzer you've got same map as me, Nick im sure gave me the impression that was it for the k03s on my agu. There was no where else to go. As i asked about injectors to change and he said no don't need them.

Barry you are confusing me :grin:

So you have AGU inlet with AUM injectors?

I'll wait for the results with Patch and see how the tests go before deciding which way to go :cool:

You'll end up having some  :tongue:  Resistence is futile  :grin: :grin:

Though you'd need to move off the island to actually put that power to use  :tongue:

Yeah i've got everything AUM (Management, Injectors, VVT) apart from AGU Lump and intake manifold...

All those who said it couldn't be done... its done! lol

Just make sure you keep coolant in the engine  :lipsrsealed: :tongue:

Yeah yeah! it wasn't the head gasket it was the block that was cracked internally!  :sick:

Dunno really, its not as aggressive as it was before and a lot of times it holds back on boost (i think thats due to ECU thinking it has SAI even though it doesn't)

Basically i see it boosting between 15 - 17psi then all of a sudden it drops to 5psi then i change gear and it goes back up momentarily then back down to 5psi... sometimes it goes in limp mode aswell but i got my new map booked in for the 27th

i'm assuming it was because of no anti-freeze. but it was in the internal lines on the block for the oil and water. (i think)

no point unless you're going hybrid

stock injectors are good for 250bhp ish

Its the turbo that's the limiting factor with diesels.  For example mine's running near the limit of the boost available but there's a fair bit of headroom with regards to the fuelling though you'll end up with a very smokey back end  :tongue:

Holy grail is power with minimal smoke.
