should be a little plate you take off and you turn over the engine until a little allen head screw comes around the you tightin it to spread the arms the shoots diesel to each injector nozzle opens more but only turn it about a half or a 1/4 turn or you will blow it up but it will pour out some black smoke

well yes ... I have never done this yet. if you turn them to far the pump will run away and it should be benched after to make sure you get an even flow of fuel. I know it can be done on the truck , but when I do it for the first time its gonna get benched just to make sure.

I too wouldnt do it on the truck. I have never done it however I know a certin 180 sitting on a shop floor thats about to be sent off to push about 500cc's Your not going to find much info anywhere about this. Its a thing a shop will have to do so you dont have a runway like stated above.

I just thought this would be a good post to derail


As for the origanal question. A fuel plate and afc tunning will quickly overload the stock drivetrain.

the reason i pluged my wastgate off is so it builds boost quicker but when you do that you have to watch your boost gauge so you dont blow your turbo
