    There's a right way and a wrong way to get a manual, and your definitely going about the wrong way.
    The moderators will most likely ban you and you wont get your manuals then.

    Certainly is a right and wrong way and he is already on the ban list. But I'm sure he won't read this as he is already posting crap in another thread

    Indeed NADS and Dawes valve etc is to limit boost and usually at a lower pressure than what you have now.

    First mods you need to do are NADS then you can work on a Chip, bigger free flowing exhaust and better intercooler.

    Other alternative is to just accept the vehicle for what it is and enjoy it. They go more than OK stock off road, aren't a sprint car on road and when towing can't pull the skin off custard at RPM below 2200
    I'd really like to know what the limit is for these donks. I run mine at 20psi and just did an hour hour run towing a 1.4T trailer with thew boost at full prolly 60% of the trip. Ran like a dream apart from the hills where I could have gotten out and pushed. Lol
    I did set it to 25psi just to see, still no limp mode and jesus! It really went but was to worried to leave it. Once my TD42 build is ready to drop in I might screw it up just to see what goes bang first as I won't be able to sell the engine for anything so I might aswell do some r & d with it.

    TW, there is multiple ways mate. I used what is called a bulkhead fitting, do a google image search to see what it is. But I welded mine in for a better seal. Or you can use a purpose made weldable fitting, that I happen to sell lol, which is made for both pyro fittings and boost fittings.
    Either way it good though. just weld it in though if you use the bulkhead fittings. They seal a lot better that way.
