    So am I! I really hope that those combined with the NADS solves it, otherwise it's back to the drawing board!

    Well I got the Patrol back (the dawes, and needle valves are yet to be installed as is the catch can, gauges and EGR blocker, it'll go in for these installs when ALL the parts are here) and some good news, and bad news.

    The injectors have made a massive difference and it now drives like a Ferrari (except tougher!) There was also a burnt out solenoid hampering performance so this got replaced too and a full service was undertaken.

    Now just on Sunday I was going along at 100kph using cruise control and it lost power and went into limp mode, slowing down to about 80kph. When I turned cruise control off and put the accelerator down again, it got back up to speed.

    Has anyone else had this happen? If so what was the cause? Was it the throttle? the cruise control? any advice is welcome!!

    Will this bugger off once I have installed all the bits mentioned above?

    I've also ordered all new hoses for the engine area too......

    Yes, I would think once you take control of boost away from the ECU you should be fine.
    Need your gauges fitted first then as you fit /modify stuff you'll be able to monitor any changes
    cause is over boosting and going into limp mode

    Thank you for that. The gauges will be the first things installed for exactly that reason. Reading on here it seems to be that 10psi @2000rpm is a desirable level of boost. Is this correct?

    Did you get the new heavy duty spring with your Dawes? Made a big difference in mine.

    I had no idea there was a heavy duty spring! I'll contact the supplier to see if that was the case, and if not, I'll get it sent out straight away!
