    How would bigger injectors and a button work out.....would that mean I wouldn't have to get the pump calibrated

    Not necessarily..
    I didn't read this thread again so I don't know what you already have.. Big injectors are useless if the fuel rail pressure isn't there..
    Find a good diesel injection shop and they can tell you what you can or can't do according to what cpl you have and whatever your going to..

    The button ain't there for turning it up.. Pump stand is for calibration..
    In theory the button is just for fine tuning, or adjustments without taking the pump off and putting it on a stand..

    Don't take that the wrong way though, there is alot of difference in 00 and 35 button..
    But to do it the right way is to have your pump calibrated to whatever, then a 35 button or something that leaves you room to adjust it up or down with the button..
