run some injector cleaner, check cam timing is spot on, bin the egr, bin the cat convertor, fit a bigger intercooler, wind the boost up abit to 18psi (ish) and then Censored about with the pump settings as above link. Th

I have a 300 TDi Auto Disco, albeit just brought a defender puma so it's going to go after being my stalwart for 11yrs.

I fitted a full width alisport intercooler, fuel pump tweak, k&n air filter, egr bypass kit, silicon hoses, fan removed. I can quite happily say it goes rather well now!! Darren

I have a friend who has a 300tdi, VTN turbo, large intercooler, tweaked pump and turner performance head. It does on avarage 4mpg more than mine and if faster even with the tune in mine. Shocked Shocked

I drove a 130 300 the other day fitted with a VTN that belonged to a chap who converts and fits them and it was really nice to drive and had loads of pull.

I would love to have the balls to tweek my 300tdi but I'm too worried about reliability and at the moment mine is reliable
I'm going to EGR delete, Straight threw pipe with a TD5 rear box as I've been told after that it should go abit better and sound abit better but thats as far as I dare go.
