Changing diff ratios could be an option.

i'd say your engine isn't puttin out of you can't get it over 100kph. might wanna have the injection pump checked out. does it blow much smoke? direct injection motors (factory turbo motors) need to have the injectors in top shape too

ive had the injectors out and cleaned so they should be right

and it does blow a bit of smoke, someone also suggested i get the injection pump tacken out and tuned,


also suggested my 3inch exhaust is 2 big and should drop it back to
2 1/4 inch
