easiest way to hit 140 bhp? out of an atd 100?  have egr delete would i only need say a decent panel filter, maybe cold air feed to bottom of airbox? smoothened air box and a remap is a cold air feed a bad thing? etc dont want to waste putting in parts i do'nt benifit from or at a push hav to sell blood for lol

or what should i expect?  only after info, ideas or chat topic, as still bit to do on body work  but it is between doing interior or engine next. not going crazy as car getting on and since it not a gttdi 115 130 etc wont get decent money on resale that is if i ever sell it

Diesels don't like cold air - so I wouldn't bother with that.
