EGT's. Where I used to see and creep up to 500C lugging it up a long hill, now it just scratches 400C, it sometimes goes to 425-450 but thats flogging it. Usual around town driving, like on the ring road for example, where I constantly used to see 300-350, after the intercooler upgrade the gauge doesn't even register any more unless I absolutely flog it.
Also a little hint if and when you DO order the CC intercooler.
Make absolutely sure they understand the exact model of car you have. Because although the intercooler and piping is the same across all patrols, the rest of the kit varies. For example our models have the EGR pipe, and they sent me the wrong kit, so the guys fitting the cooler had to chop, weld and block things to suit as the EGR pipe was in the way.
My post about it here.

So I rang up CC the next day and it was confirmed I was sent a kit for a 4.2 without EGR.
