Thanks for the welcome.
I've only covered 500mls and cant wait for a remap so I'll do say 2k miles then I'll get it done. The dealer said it does'nt really need running in but to be on the safe side I just give it bit of a boot now and again.
Oh the Rangy Superchager has nearly 400 BHP standard and is a bit of a tool, just the build quality is pants and you need to have a sexual relationship with your local petrol station.
Any idea where the DV is on a ED30? :evil:

The DV valve is on the right front of the engine.  To the left of the cold air intake .

I changed it for three reasons really:-

1. Peace of mind (fit and forget)
2. Better boost holding capacity over the OEM valve
3. Improved valve response over the OEM valve

Totally agree Hurdy...but one would not understand why people fit these aftermarket DV's until one fit's a unit and feels the difference. Money well spent in my opinion.
