any one make or use headers or freeflow pipes or mufflers ect

on a gas car the pipes can add power and milage too if done right
on gas turbo's big down pipes and bigger pipes go well with bigger turbo's
along with intercoolers but need more fuel
can an eltric fuel pump push more fuel to and thru the injector pump or is that a bottle neck in the system
do bigger flowing injectors help on over boosted turbo's

A free-flowing exhaust will help spool the turbo, but a diesel has plenty of air - diesels burn LEAN normally. To make more power you must increase fuel, and control temperature. The injection pump is the key, and a stock IP will only make so much power. Higher flowing injectors will not matter when the pump is maxxed out, as all the fuel the IP flows necessarily goes through the injectors as well. A bigger turbo is onlly needed if you already have the ability to flow too much fuel and you need a cooler EGT (get an intercooler) or you have black smoke (not enough air).
