Noob with some 87 300td questions! - boost_creep - 02-25-2010

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and looking to learn a few things about my "new" car. It's an 87 300td wagon, I'm not new to turbo's but I am new to MB and diesel. What should I be looking for as far as common problems go with these cars? Is there anything easy I can do to get a bit more power out of it? I'm not looking to make a race car but it would be nice if it had a little more pep. What are the factory boost settings and what can I safely run?. What's the factory exhaust size? Thanks in advance!

Shoot me an email sometime with any questions and I will be more than happy to let you know everything I know about the car. I have one and have done A LOT to get it up to spec.
