Sorry for the lack of updates, been having a few issues.
right where to begin, i still have the 206 HDi GTi, although i have considered a swap on a GTi 180, as im no longer driving as a job due to me tearing my ACL, so i don't actually need a diesel anymore.
as for the car itself, its gone through another turbo, sourced from a reputable company, got 2500 miles then boom snapped the shaft, along with other errors (yep the map sensor was at it again).
however the does appear to be some light at the end of the think black cloud of smoke filled tunnel, i managed to get a good deal on a 1.6 HDi sport turbo (its the some one as mine was) it had done 50k miles, was fitted as per spec, pipe was checked but as it was virtually brand new was cleaned out rather than replaced. there is now a lot less smoke, it still does smoke, but not the thick black cloud it was. i have not herd a peep from the over boast sensor, and the car is now no longer hesitating to accelerate.
i have learn how to take the front of the car apart so i could clean the inter-cooler out, and found lots of metal shards, that have come from the end of the turbo, so ultimately it will need a new core. but that is a secondary issue to the fact i think the maf sensor is gone. so that is next to be replaced. then its a new core, and see where i am after that, that's assuming i don't sell up and get a 180 in the mean time as there both valued at around £2.5k at the moment.
