Egr block and a catch can do different things. Should have both really.

Great information, thanks everyone.

By the sounds of it a Scan Guage or an Ultra Guage could be a good idea as well. Which is better? are they easy to fit?

The 3 first things I did to 08 CRD when I bought it, Scanguage, Provent 200 Catch Can and EGR block. It chucks the check engine light up every now and then but the CRD seems to control boost better than the DI's do. Mine rarely peeks above 14 PSI.

All I can say is DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!!!

Really? Whats wrong with it? Boost that biatch!

Mine was maxed at 20psi, but I have to say there was little difference between 17 and 20psi. So I wound the lackka band up a bit more to 25psi and made the her squeal like a pig and there is notable difference now. EGT's actually dropped even more now too. Been at 25psi for a good three months now I reckon and still going good.
The first thing I did when I got my Patrol was rip off the useless engine cover POS. Litteraly did. Pick the car up, drove it home, pulled up into the garage, pop the hood and off it came.

Plug and Pray they are mate on the CRD's. Dunno which is better out of the two though sorry.
