If in your part of the world an original D24TIC intake and IC are obtainable - go for it!
Else... New injectors (there are some good threads around here about it, do a search...), FMIC (alcohol spray it?), MLS HG, then LDA/max fuel/governor mod (governor mod does huuge difference), then boost...lots of it. Mine went up to about 2 bar (28 psi) on stock TIC turbo, but efficiency is questionable. On a healthy engine, you can expect power similar to a gasser turbobrick with lots of torque and unbeatable sound. Of course, price is longevity. You can't really expect it to spin 6500rpm @2bar all day long and still be able to pass 100.000km on it. Though, a D24 is pretty sturdy motor, its weakest spot being the long, narrow head prone to cracking. Make sure radiator, thermostat and all the hoses are in perfect order and perhaps replace the water pump with the updated version off a VW T4 van's 2.4D inline five. There is virtually every step explained on this and VW Diesel forums, it is up to you only to find the balance of power and longevity that suits you.

Thanks for the response guys, I'm slacking on my part. I did turn the max fuel(boost) enrichment screw in about 1/4 turn clockwise. It seemed to help it quite a bit actually. It rolls a lot more coal now though, but nothing outrageous. I'm looking for a good EGT guage to go with. Any suggestions?
