I have a OM617 in a Land Rover 110 and like everyone else would like to get more power, perhaps the 160 HP being claimed from the stock MW pump.
Am running an intercooler with the stock KKK Turbo (which seems to spool up boost faster than the Garett.
This weekend I drove from Asheville, NC to Chesapeake, VA and was able to go between 70 and 85 MPH on the interstate.
I have read every post on the thread and am still unsure as to what to do.
Some have said adjust out the ALDA, others leave it alone and make other adjustments. Not sure where to proceed.
Has anyone tried one of those waste gate pressure bleed off valves to gain more boost? I did experiment with blocking off the wastegate and it caused what I think was a pop-off type relief valve to dump the boost which was terrible. Would the bleed off cause the relief valve to dump all the boost if the wastegate remains closed and lets higher boost build?
Any advice is welcome.
