Just I'm running a stage 3 TD5 inside map and have a larger intercooler (britpart - yes I know, but it doesn't leak and seems to work ok) and removed the EGR. I haven't touched my exhaust and don't have an EGT sensor to tell if its hot.
Should I be worried about warping the head?

Sorry for the delayed response.

In answer: Bruce Davis tune. Factory Intercooler. Factory exhaust. EGR blanking kit. Boost wound up a smidge to reduce overfuelling. Ian (Mools) covered the other issues eloquently.

On the long term acquisition list is an intercooler and umming and arring about the merits of a full exhaust or merely the removal of the centre muffler.

I agree that the EGT probe should be pre-turbo for accurate readings. Each to their own for methodology of drilling but to my mind removing the turbo is a prudent exercise.

Fixing a warped manifold can be expensive, as is my case when the bolt has snapped in the head, which involves a time taking removal of the bolt, cutting out the webbing, skimming the manifold and bolting it all back together.

cheers MLD
