Why did you buy a diesel if you're looking for power?

All you have to do to increase performance in a diesel is to increase the amount of fuel being compressed.

Be careful, though. Boost it too much and you could melt the pistons and basically cook the engine from the inside out.

Turn the ALDA CCW to increase off-the-line power, and make sure your linkage is set at the optimal setting.

Before doing any of this, make sure your car is ready for it. Have an EGT gauge, and a boost pressure gauge. You want to be as careful as possible not to hurt the engine.
