yeah drop the idle first...use the throttle arm stop and the idle screws on the back of the pump (accessed from the top)
then you can increase it.
how much have you increased the boost by? and how much is the internal LDA adjuster wheel turned?

the idle will inevitably go up once you start increasing the amount of fuel per cycle, but you can fine tune it a little bit with the hot and cold idle adjustment.
my fully maxxed out 9mm bosch cold idle is 1200rpm then 800rpm at hot idle so its possible to control things this way to some degree

Your throttle arm can sit back alot further yet! Theres a screw on the back that holds it in place.
Doesnt even own a 306.

Thanks for that didn't think of this I'm a bit tired. I've not adjusted the wheel in side yet what would you suggest how much adjustment.

Thanks for the help lads I'll have a tweak tomorrow. I will probably have to tweak it all again when I change the turbo anyway.
