    This got fitted last week!

    Do i notice much difference? Not really.
    Do i think it was worth $1700 fitted? Not really. Hard to tell before and after with the chip. The exhaust was definitely noticeable as the wagon stayed in the lower gear for longer. But with the chip, i was told I would notice a similar result.. ie, more lower end torque.

    The last thing im going to do for engine performance is have the EGR block fitted, along with the Dawes setup. And then ill get it dyno tested and tuned, and be done with the engine mods I think. Perhaps the tuner will tweak the Steinbauer settings. I just dont want it blowing smoke.

    Fitted the 2500 x 2500 ARB Touring awning.

    Had difficulty using the Rhino Rack foxwing brackets that ARB recommended for me, because the OCAM Industries alloy roof rack that I have has 32mm tubing on the bottom and an ARB roof rack uses 28mm tubing!

    My solution was to use stainless steel hose clamps instead of u-bolts. I also needed to drill a hole 50mm above the bottom hole on the bracket (as the awning bolt spacers are 50mm apart).

    Very happy with the awning and how she sits.
