If you haven't already done it, get an aneroid pin from a 1.6TD, or for the ultimate potential increase in rate of fuelling a 1.6 GTD one. Tune the engine by altering the
timing a bit at a time and doing a repeated hill climb. Don't restrict yourself to believing that only more advancement gives the best response from turbo...
