TD27 boost advice...

Hey all, just fitted a custom top mount air/air cooler to replace the dodgy water/air setup that was on my rig and just wondering who out there has played with boost settings on the TD27 motors... I currently run 12 psi, a mate with a non intercooled terrano runs 13 psi but would like to know how much every one has run and was there any damage... was thinking of pushing 15 psi ......

do you have an exhaust temp gauge (pryo)?

 

this is most important, as when exhaust gas temp hits a certain level it becomes damaging to the motor, that level depends on weather the probe its pre or post turbo.

 

the other important thing is if your planning on or have already up'd the boost you need to up the fuel.

 

both the td27 & td42 are very strong diesel motors, despite both being indirect inject, & if setup properly can handel big mods all day every day.

 

lets see some pics of the cooler setup. btw air to water coolers arnt a bad thing, there actually very expensive, but to be worth while the 'barrel' need to be BIG as possible like 8x6 as a minimum
