Hey Daz.
No mate. The only upgrades I have are the CC intercooler/scoop and a JPC high flow water pump all with a good tune.
But,as per my previous post I am watching the thread with much interest!

Also, I will add, the CC intercooler tamed the EGT's big time and gained a couple of ponies with it too. Pricey, but good investment.

Have you also considered a bigger air intake ?

Hi mate, no I haven't considered intake mods really. I have a billet air box lid with a cobra head which I got off @Stropp when he upgraded his airbox. Stropp did you do your airbox upgrade as a stand alone mod? Did you notice a huge change? What snorkel have you got feeding it?

Eric what sort of power did you make with your tune?

Can you help me with a parts list and where to get all that mate. When the time comes I need to not loose any time parked up as it's the Daily for Naomi and I can afford to not have everything I need to bolt up and go.

I went up from 75kW to about 100kW with just a tune after fitting a 3" exhaust.
Then after fitting the CC intercooler they easily reached 115-120kW, but apparently the car was gasping for air at that stage or beyond.
The standard HT18 was at its peak range so they suggested if I want more, I'd need a better turbo and/or open up the air intake.
The IP was also a limiting factor.

When you do this work Darren I would suggest to take it to diesel tech for a tune up. I don't think the tune you had was very good.

This what you need Dazz, this is from GCG but shop around as prices have come up a bit...

Try out Eastern Turbo Chargers in bayswater and MTQ

You may need a short bracket for the actuator but I have one here for you.

Are you going to upgrade your airbox too?

Borg Warner EFR6758 Turbocharger T25/V-Band
Turbine Outlet Flange Borg Warner EFR Series This is for the 3" dump pipe
V-Band Clamp 3.0" GT30/GT35/T04Z/EFR/GTW
Turbine Inlet Flange Adaptor T25 to T3
Base Gasket T25/T28 Multi Layer
Base Gasket T3 Multi Layer


I originally bought this oil drain but it's not ideal and ended up getting an ID drain of 15mm from Eastern Turbo in Bayswater for much better flow.

Just make sure you get 38mm bolt spacing for the oil drain and gasket.

I think I also have a set of M8 x 1.25 studs too.

Then Pirtek is your new friend in plumbing it up and I can help you there too with exact fittings and lengths, etc.
