    ZD30 intake butterfly removal

    As title. Why is this deemed a necessary mod?
    EGR has been removed, and throttle body cleaned....

    Its not necessary bud. Dont bother. you wont gain anything from doing it. The large butterfly assists in engine shut down, and the other i like a choke where it closes to richen the fuel mixture. Or something to that effect.
    But if your keen to see the difference, just leave the vacuum tube of it so it wont work and just stay open.

    Thanks Mudski.
    I've heard of it, just wasn't sure of the reason or affects it might have.

    You could remove your IC and clean the inside, Wouldnt bother testing it for leaks if its oily.
    Diesel Smart do a great tigged IC pressure tested to 60 psi I think, good service too.
    check that rear hose [blue] on yours they have a tendency to blow off or split

    3D I have a new intrcooler arriving monday -tuesday i will prob get new hoses for all the pipework on the IC as they all look a bit dodgey
    was thinking about going 2.25 inch (57mm) from turbo to intercooler had a look on ebay but found it hard to find all the parts needed
    this is what i think is required

    2.25inch (57mm) 90deg mandrell bent pipe
    2.25inch(57mm) 60deg mandrell bent pipe
    2.25inch (57mm) straight sillicone joiner x2
    1.75inch to 2.25inch reducer silicone joiner
