Hi,
Sure you can. Ask Griz as he is. There are other posts about this, check the Performance section. There was a video posted of some nutter in a 740 with more power than a moon rocket!! Des. . . ![]()

My understanding is that a 940TD is the turbodiesel, in which case it definately does have the 2.4litre 6 cyl VW engine similar to that found in the LT35 van, but with the addition of a turbo and intercooler. If this is the case then the addition of a boost gauge (to allow you to see what you're doing) and a Manual Boost Controller (aka MBC) set to allow the turbo to boost at 15psi should see a very healthy increase in power. 15psi is about the safe limit on the TDi engine before the injection pump needs to be tweaked - this is, however, best left to a diesel engine expert.
