You need a throttle before you need a dump valve, and diesels don't have them. :y

would i be able to fit-
-bigger turbo
-dump valve
-bigger front mounted inter cooler

if so where would i find these and guides and what ever

Bigger turbo= I don't know. Why would you, you'd only get more turbo lag.
Dump Valve= Don't be daft  ;D
Bigger Inter Cooler= You could, because there's lots of room down infront of the rad, but rooting the pipes would be a major problem as there's no way through without major chopping & re-moving of parts.
It would also be a good option if it where possible, because the current set up is a laugh. How in the hell is a Intercooler supposed to work when it's seated behind a radiator & condensor. Air flow, what air flow  ::) ???
If you want more power, you need to remove the cat & the silencer box just after it & re-map it too. It works well with mine :y :y

...and if you want to look after the pump, then add 300ml of 2 stroke synthetic oil to every tankfull of diesel  ;)

Trouble strikes in series of three's, but when working on the car, the next job after a series of three is not the fourth job -- it's the start of a brand new series of three
