It is fairly easy to get a few more bhp out of them by adding an intercooler, then increasing fuelling and boost. They were rated at 81bhp, but have a fairly decent torque curve, so are not as peaky as some other high speed diesel engines (high speed by comparison with older Perkins that is...)...

Low mileage like that doesn't seem to have any ill effects on the turbo diesels..the non turbo's are the ones that seem to dislike not being used much..

Looks like a job well done! I think there is 'how to' for the o rings on here somewhere, only likely problem I can think of is the three bolts/screws holding the stepper motor on. They can be pigs to get out, well worth dousing them in penetrating oil (a quality one like 'arrow super slaks') over as...
