If you look around on the net you will find some write-ups from people who have done this and also added DI .The trouble is the LPT 900 doesn't have the APC box. What does seem worthwhile though is fitting an inter- cooler and adjusting the wastegate for 1 - 2 psi of extra boost. I've driven one that had this done to it by a previous owner and was impressed by how much difference it made. I'm not sure how fuel metering works out though and it looked like he'd squashed the FPR to increase fuel pressure. AndyH '94 9000 CDE
