Increasing boost on the 4x4
#9
i only spike about 2psi before it settles.The leaner a diesel runs the cooler it runs,the opposite of a petrol car which can hole a piston.diesels kill pistons,bearings,cranks and rods when you go apeshit with boost and matching fuel.The richer they are the hotter they run.my rodeo has a safari intercooler kit fitted along with a 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust.I also upped the boost from 10-13-14psi at about 75000k,s.It now has 230,000k,s and still uses less than 10L/100km around sydney at about 22-2300kg.I just don,t overrev it 3600-3800 tops with regular 5000km oil changes and the magical militec every 25-50000km.A little suggestion though is ideally a catch can to capture blowby before it returns to your intake will stop the intercooler slowly being oiled up.safari 4x4 never did a chip for the jackaroo,a shame really,it was the first decent efi turbo diesel.
