Faster boost response is one of the benefits of blocking the EGR, the faster the turbo comes up on boost the earlier you start to make decent power.
Is yours a GQ or GU?

Little manual boost controller. I've got a cheap one of eBay and it works perfectly fine. Winding the fuel up I found will turn your boost up though. Had my 15psi over boost valve open yesterday. Which let me know I got oil inside my inlet manifold lol, now splattered on the front of the inlet manifold is oil haha.
Parden my ignorance gqt, but what is an overboost valve?Quote:

It's a pressure relief valve to protect the engine from overboosting.

Hi there gqt, just wondering how you wound the fuel up. I have same engine as yours with EGR just about to be blocked. Any info would be good brudda.
I've got a 98 gu 2.8td running 20pound not much use winding boost up unless you get a chip as the pump only flows a certain amount of fuel so it doesn't get anymore power until chiped up
