    If you are at all concerned, put in an EGT gauge first. I have to say I've noticed no heat difference on my EGT's with no EGR, but then my car is getting a lot better cold airflow than stock these days.

    What's the news for me, Greg? I wish to purchase, brother! My EGR solenoid is fooked so the sooner the better.

    you hear alot more turbo whistle with the delete. It's great

    just remember that we have the PD150 manifold stock when you go to order

    I thought that since the EGR is designed to effectively decrease the oxygen in combustion chamber, then increased air mass would also increase the EGT.
    But then increasing boost lowers EGTs in an overfuelled diesel....

    I'm hearing plenty of turbo noise with this blown soleniod. hahaha.

    I better confirm which manifold I have, as it is a bit different to yours I think. Might need to do some-a-measurin'.

    What sort of increase in HP are you feeling? Much?

    Preenster drop Darkside Developments a line in the UK, it seems the Dieselgeek one is very limited in Euro fitment, being very USA specific.

    Can you give me the engine code from the Caddy manual?

    is your engine code AXR??

    no real HP increase, it just feels more linear again, and smooth. I like it!

    Getting rid of the EGR flap makes it a much smoother car to drive!

    sure does! Big fan of the new driving experience

    however my only gripe is by getting rid of the flap, shut off is a lumpy affair, scared the crap out of me when I first turned it off, but then I worked it out and it was all ok
