Thread: Roo Systems ECU Remap, including EGR system disable and catch can fitting - booked in

Should be an interesting read. Looking forward to it.
Are you currently monitoring boost pressures , EGT, engine temperature etc. at present so that you have a before & comparison?

Brad, how many kms has your vehicle done. Very interested as I have same model. Would also be interested in how much gunk has built up in your system as well.

Following with interest..

does your car have DPF?

Wow that is expensive.

Before you fork out all those bickies, you should at the very least talk to Pete Bell at Bell Auto Systems in The UK.
Many of us here have tweaked our Defenders with a BAS remap. The bonus is yo get diagnostic and fault clearing ability.
There is no shortage of ecstatic raves on here about BAS.

Having said that. I'm sure you get what you pay for with Gleno. and he's right there with you in Brisbane.

I too am following this thread with interest. Its something I thought I would do too along with the 3" exhaust. Brad did they mention that.

No my car doesn't have a DPF.

It's just coming up to 104k kms now.

Just had it serviced and there were no issues. There was a soot build up as you'd expect but nothing major though.

Yes the 3" exhaust was spoken about a lot. Ironically the reason I'm not getting it is because of the price. Their justification is that due to the two turbos and therefore "two exhausts" the exhaust package costs a lot more. An extra $2495 plus $260 to fit. Crazy money if 2+ grand wasn't crazy enough.

I'll likely eventually get a performance exhaust. Just not from Roo Systems. We'll see I guess.

Also, no I'm not monitoring EGTs and boost pressure. Only because I don't have the means to do so.

Ive been assured by the lads at roo systems though that they'll be collecting that data on the "control test" before they commence the remap. Obviously monitoring these values over a longer period of time is ideal, but it'll be better than no idea at all.

Brad, getting the remap done now, and then maybe an exhaust later, will that mean you'll have to have them go over the car again later to tweak it perhaps,, to make use of the better breathing the car will have ?
