    Sounds like a plan, pics of the re build would be great if it doesn't push up the hourly rate too much LOL

    Yes there will be a noticable difference in perfomance always is when something is fresh and new. Your economy will get better as it wears in a bit and "loosens up". But as its been said get nads on their asap and gauges if you dont already

    nads (except catch can) and guages had already been fitted. I also have a 2.5 -3 inch exhaust but not sure what brand as it was already fitted when bought. would love a chip but it will depend on the final bill.

    Well, she's back from the rebuild. A bit of a glitch on the way home as the intercooler pipe blew off, but since then all sweet. Had a run up to Caloundra yesterday and all seemed well, nice low egt's 250-350 and boost around 10-11 psi at 100-110kph. Bring on the next trip

    good news mate good eg,ts and temps,if you cruise at 95/100 they will stay low,a long climb with your camper you will see temp 500
    other than that 350 -400 then again they all have there own little quirks

    Does anyone know if this can be done to the earlier ZD30's? Or what exactly it is they did?
