Thanks 
It might be worth noting the L series fuel pumps aren't too different to your mechanical ones however they are electronically controlled, can be remapped, but we're only talking a rev limit of 4.5k, it's mad how you can push the XUD to 5-6k!
170bhp+/250lbft sounds ideal though, not "too much" torque to risk breaking anything but with a nice power increase.
What are TD04's like "off boost"? Does the engine feel gutless or is it still okay tootling aroun at 2-2.5k rpm as you normally would for daily driving? On standard turbos you're easily on full boost by 2.5k rpm but then power tails off only 1000 revs after, making the top end of the revs feel very dull. I'm guessing the TD04 would still be pulling well into the 4.5k rpm redline?
