Max fuel screw
#1
So just brought my Dtrubo and was looking at tuning it but it seems the max fuel screw caps been attacked before i dont know if it was tampered with, the boost comp still had the cover on.  
how do you reckon i proceed, is there a way to set it back to original, is it going to do any serious damage

not much without tightening the turbo wastegate too.

I adjusted max fuel on my lucas pump (still has more to go) and adjusted the actuator 3 turns tighter and it sits on 26psi and flies compared to standard

26psi will be fine aslong as you have a bit of mechanical sympathy , keep it well serviced an it should be fine. Get a fmic on though . after a few rags on the tmic you will he suffering heatsoak at anything higher than 20psi up
