i assume its a 1.9td, adjusting the turbo will do bugga all, you need to get the injection pump off, get the immobiliser shield drilled out, and then adjust the max fueling screw, refit the pump and woosh, then it will bloody fly

You can fit a bleed value to increase the boost, but as previously said this will do nothing without up'ing the fueling.
You take take t to a diesel specialist who can up the fueling and fit a bleed value for you.
I help do it to a friend 1.5 TD Corsa, it made a big difference to the car. Was alot of fun to drive.
