Tinkering with injector pumps and injectors is best left to those who have the right tools and training. Even my dad with 40 years experience in all things diesel won't tinker with it himself.

That said there are some external adjustments that you can attempt to fiddle with, as long as its done with moderation.
You can adjust the Injector Pump to broadly enrich the fuel. As your only going for lo blo turbocharging, you shouldn't need to do anything radical. Having an exhaust pyrometer will help in your tuning.

The Factory service manual for the engine will have detailed instruction on overhauling the Injector Pump. That will give you pointers on whats what as far as adjustments go.
