Ah! Doc is your man to answer this as he has applied the knowledge and gained the experience on both counts.
It's already been documented over on BXP.

on a TD, lots of power.
Is it a good idea?
Not unless you like changing heads every few thousand miles..
125BHP is about the limit of what a 17TD can take.
Power tuning an N/A is about as pointless as Gordon Brown..
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!
Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...
