More horsepower? CT225

No adjustment for the rack for the application. You cant turn it up. If you have a fuel injection shop near you you can have the pump bench tested and set up. I've see quite a few of these pumps not set up correctly(delivery valves)and delivering different amounts of fuel to each injector.

That's interesting is that generally something that is difficult or expensive to have done?

I can change the pump out in about 2 hrs. A novice tech can do it with the service manuel. Not sure what the shops in your area charge. Flate rate in our are area is about $75 depending on the pump.

OR as the chassis is the same for the 235, find a used larger engine and drop it in. Should be a direct bolt fit. But before putting it in, get it tuned up. Many of the HP tricks that are used on gas work on a diesel, especially air flow tricks.

Check out everything attachments, I seem to remember reading that Ted tweaked a tractor earlier this year .

Just remember guys you can not turn Bobcat injection pumps up. The stroke of the rack is some what fixed.It is connected to the throttle/governor via a spring. I would not mess with the throttle adj. especially if you have a lot of hrs. on the unit. Some injection pumps have a stop on the rack. This is what is being adjusted in the posted video. Bear this in mind and I've seen it happen. Its just like the plumbing in your house and you have low water PSI. You call the plumber and he turns up the PSI. A hour later you start springing leaks and the kamode is running. With diesel engines they usually come apart or start making horribly noises.

That does not sound good.

There's always The option of adding a turbo. I have read a couple of threads on here of guys that have done it two other tractors and they seem to have been happy with it. Plus it sounds kind a like a cool project. I'm happy with the power of mine too but who doesn't like more power?

What RPM are you running at?
