EGR block fitted, engine performance better ???

[mudski]

just fitted the EGR blocking plate, after reading the benefits on this site, and after talking to some patrol owners this is a common thing to do. is there anything else you can recommend that is a must do

Depending on what other mods you have done?
The list goes :

• Boost and EGT gauges ( should be done before any mods, including EGR plate)
• EGR plate
• Dawes valve
• Needle valve
• Catch Can
• Bigger exhaust
• Performance chip
• Better intercooler
• Better intercooler scoop
• Glow plug timer mod

There is more.
Out of that list that is a must I will say...

• Boost and EGT gauges ( should be done before any mods, including EGR plate)
• EGR plate
• Dawes valve
• Needle valve
• Catch Can

For engine longevity.

thanks for the info. i thought the boost and EGT gauges where for the earlier model GU due to the issues with over boosting (my patrol is 2003) is this recommended for all model patrol, i also thought the Dawes valve was for this problem as well, but below WYLD333 states the car would be a different car to drive, in what regards?
