I'll be using the standard peugeot DVs for now and see how it goes, I can easily swap out the transit ones to see if there is any difference at some point, as presumably they can flow more.
It just gets to a point where without having a spec sheet, or someway of formal testing, the only thing I can do is trial and error and see if there is any difference. Or more specifically, wait until I feel there is a problem and then try and solve it.
I think everyone on here is being as helpful as possible, and I'm thankful for all the input and nods in the right direction.
Past a point it isn't going to be as easy as saying turn this or add that part as it will be specific to what you're trying to achieve, and some good understanding of how it all works and what you're doing is required. Coupled with what else you're running, ie what turbo and anything else exciting you've got going on with your engine will all have an input into how you want to set up your pump.
I've found the bosch ve yellow tech manual to be a fantastic start as it gives a complete breakdown of how the pump works and from this you get a feel for what you might want to do.
I'm building up this pump slowly and prob won't have it on a car for another month yet.
