Hi I've just fitted a Cross country one on mine with a fan it's a work of art ! The EGT'S are down about 50 degrees +. Now it gets to about 650 degrees max when in sand or up steep climbs, Before it would climb to 700 + and keep going so i had to back off ! Love it. I've also just ordered a larger bonnet scoop from Fairline fibreglass $285 to your door. I have his mobile number if needed.
HI Jimbo, I think 650 degrees is a bit to hot, I wouldn't let mine get that hot.

Hey is there a website for the scoop?
I can't seem to find one.
Have you got any pics of your new scoop?

Yeh that's what I thought, it seems a tad too high. I've seen mine hit 550 once and that was hammering it in 5th up a slightly inclining road. After feeding the dawes/needle, I've yet to see it go over 400. I think the factory sat-up did a piss poor job with the boost, so now it breathes better.
My Diesel smart IC should arrive Monday, so will be interesting if it makes any difference over a tad leaking factory one.
Mine will go to 650 degrees easily if I let it, but I never let it go over 550.

@ Maughany way too pricey you wont get any benefit from the fan unless you do heaps of sand driving
you should be able to buy a tig welded IC for around $4-500, keep shopping
