When I say maxed I mean as far as itll go just adjusting the screws on the outside and still idle without taking the insides apart. I know the theoretical limit of these according to Bosch is about 230bhp

Dont think theres much shit in the tank TBH its just a little cold for how much veg im running.
JP has helped me loads in the past and no doubt soon when i come to building pump and get stuck haha
I wouldnt say its maxed out yet, how many times have you had to knock throttle arm back? ive only done this the once but got it just under revs hanging, on one of dans pins, need to look into LDA mods next and look at my throttle cable setup as doesnt seem to jump on full like it used to.
Looking forward to seeing how this mother runs on derv with an 11mm though
Ive not spun the arm yet im gonna grind the pump body where it hits first to get more neg travel that way then Im gonna start playing with the internals for more travel on bits and bobs.
