    I paid $45 for a dawes valve from 3barracing in the states and paid $90 for a needle valve from Dependable distributors in SA.
    You'll also need a provent 200 catch can. Or PM mudski he should have stock.

    I have got a plate I was about to install on my 2007 CRD but I got nervous about not having the Dawes and Needle valve installed yet.

    Is it reasonable on the CRD motor to install the EGR block and see how the motor responds or should I just get the kit and install it anyway? (this is of course with the EGT and boost monitoring already in place).

    Mine has EGR block and no Dawes or Needle valve.
    I fitted the EGR then adjusted the VNT as per Chaz's bible and she's been tickety boo ever since (chipped, 3" exhaust, EGR block, pyro and scan gauge)
    I bought the Dawes gear but it runs perfectly well on the ECU so never bothered so I sold the bits

    Why does it have to be provent? I already have a catch...I also have the boost and egt guages and notice on the boost guage under acceleration it spikes then drops off the power and keeps doing this a couple of times until it levels out and this is why I want to fit the dawes and needle so as to take away the boost control from the ecu.... cheers G
