They offer various performance upgrades for the 19td engine, I had work done on a ZX 19TD by them a few years ago, which took power to about 105hp from 92, and the difference was really noticable.

Hi after speaking to you vie e-mail I found out some info you might like.
If your engine is fitted with a Garret turbo then these have external waste gates and actuators. So you can obtain a bleed valve from good car accessory shops that is fitted in-line with the vacume servo attached to the waste gatre. This alows the turbo to produce more boost befor the waste gate kicks in as the vacume is restricted, prolonging the amount of time the turbo is in use and increacing power.
