davidlandy:
the simple answer is no

rip it off , loose the EGR , and appreciate the more low down pull it will give you.

EGR gone already. Did not notice any difference though.  Used a good kit from Cheviot4x4.

Before I get any comments, I did reconnect the air filter in the 2nd photo.

its not a CAT, its a particulate filter (as advised by my MOT inspector, who is a landy specialist) you can bin it as there is no requirement to keep it, as long as your truck still passes the emissions test in the MOT.

I binned mine at the weekend, and fitted a 300Tdi defender downpipe, i've already binned the EGR and tweaked the fueling slightly... it goes quite nicely now. :grin:
