With the exhaust are you doing turbo back or just from the Cat back??

I have just fitted EGR and Dawes set up and gauges to my 08 CRD. Previously fitted catch can and second filter/water trap. Scan gauge will arrive next week to clear the check light:icon_bonk: The Trol is going well. topping out at 18 psi boost and now will pull up my hill in to gear only dropping 5 kmph and apposed to 10 to 15. Cheaper than chipping and better for the engine. Was a bit fiddly until I got my head around what did what and yes I got a bit lost on the way. This forum has a wealth of information at your disposal so read up and ask questions.
Footnote: Very happy with the Trol now after a run to Canberra tonight.
oh jeez wait till you chip it then that will give you the happiesQuote:

Not a good idea as I couldn't say if there were any huge improvements
You may want to think about getting your ECU re mapped "2trollfam" just had it done
and you cant wipe the smile off Sharen's face
Yes Threedogs, I definitely want to look into the ECU re mapping once I save a bit more coin :)Quote:

Just thought I would update you on how everything went . The car seems to have a much more smoother and immediate response in regards to exceleration, the dawes valve has been currently set to 17 psi which seems to be good. The Scan Guage 2 is a great piece of kit with the various readings it give you and being able to clear the fault code from the egr block. The boost and egt guage also has been a great insight to how the car is going. As for the oil catch can, that really is an essential mod for these vehicles. should of done this stuff sooner.
Good to hear things are going well with the Patrol mate. Dawes and needle need a sweet spot, and once you find it, set it and forget it.
