vRS Carl's New Machine ***Pics Added***

^ :happy2: Very cool.
EGR off, rather than EGR delete? Nice. Another software advantage I guess.
Will you DPF delete eventually? Does seem to expose a lovely deep V6/6 cylinder rumble on the 3.0 diesel Mercs/BMWs/Audis etc combined with a TBE.
vRS Carl:
Yes the EGR can be switched off on the Mercedes Diseasel.
No i won't be removing the DPF. With the MOT regs changing all the time and the current ones checking DPF's it's safer to just leave it on and saves me a few quid.
The engine actually sounds quite nice on WOT for a wood burner

:signLOL: Not your first TDI though is it? I forget now.
Makes sense - that's my concern too with DPF Del. The legality and insurance situation. Not sure if gutting the insides and leaving the box as it is leaves you any better off, in theory(?). The sound, performance and economy gains from doing it are mega tempting :sad1:
6pot diesels generally sound very smooth. I'd pay good cash to have the 3.0 V6 245ps VAG engine in my A3 :fighting:

So how much all in have you payed for your Stage 1 or tuning box unit all in Carl ??
