Hi Guys,
I had a quick search on various threads in relevant forums but couldn't really find a great deal of info on plug in boxes for the 1HD-FTE.
I'm looking at a custom 3" SS exhaust and possibly Allisport intercooler, if SWAMBO/purse-string holder can be convinced...! Not keen on pushing anything too far or delving into big turbos, AT valve bodies etc, just increasing efficiency and compensating for some extra weight once a few expedition goodies are in place. Has anyone got experience of boost control on the 1HD-FTE?
I've cleared out the EGR and all its piping and blanked it. May fit a catch can too. I've removed the intake manifold and swirl flaps for a decrudding (I'm being VERY careful with preventing chunky oily carbon bits getting into the cylinders!). Does anyone know if the flap module is only fitted to the early engines or throughout?
I'm looking for feedback from 100 series owners who have experience of the brands available in the UK, below is a little list of what I've found available, recent prices and performance claims. I guess the Rolls-Royce box would be the Steinbauer but I'm keen to see if anyone has had decent gains with the more cost-effective boxes?
If anyone knows of other providers, ones to avoid at all costs, specials etc please let me know...!
Kind Regards,
G
