A 76mm free flow exhaust and engine map on the 3.0 CRD is a worthwhile upgrade, especially if you are running bigger tyres.
Thanks for the welcome everyone.

@Steele - I did buy mine last year in June but got it at a second hand dealership in Durban. It had had one previous owner.

Would you mind sharing where you got your free flow exhaust and engine map done? I would love to get some more power out of it.
Hi Cameron, as Oetie said, Micheal Steyn does great work and arranged to have mine done. My exhaust was done by Viper and Michael arranged the engine remap at SAC in Centurion.

I see you are in Ballito though. I'm sure you could find a good exhaust shop down there. It is important that they do a full fee flow including the downpipe from the turbo as this is where your biggest gain will be. This necessitates removing the cat as well. I'm sure SAC must have a branch down there as well and they could chat to the guys in Centurion to get the down low. I opted for a mild tune with the focus on the lower end as I tow a heavy off road camper. The difference at pull off is astounding.
Cheers, Gareth
I think, therefore I am........ I think?!?!?!

Thank you Steele and Oetie. It seems my starting point is a phone call to Michael and then take it from there. A trip to JHB to get this done correctly is probably a worthwhile investment. Plus I can just work from our JHB office for a couple of days.
