Available air intakes or ss exhaust for CRD's?

longarm · **Posted:** Fri Jul 15, 2005 4:56 pm

Are there any available aftermarket air intakes or ss exhaust systems for the CRD? I was thinking something like a short ram for intake. I especially want a ss exhaust due to Michigans really salty winters. I had this set up on my old Explorer Sporttrac and it helped with Milage, and HP. The engine was able to breath easier. I don't know how diesles are, but I figured it might help out.

On that note, anyone know of any chips for the CRD? I heard of a Chevy 3500 Diesel that has a chip and he claims that he gets better gas milage, HP, and torque. I heard that chips are very different on diesels than on regular gas engines.

On the old board there was a post of a member who put on exhuast and someone who chipped. I think that the exhaust he said was too loud and the chip didn't really do much. That is what I remember from the post. The chip was one used in europe or australia where they have had the crd's for a while.

TST Products and BullyDog are both working on computer tuners for the CRD right now. I too would love to know where I can find intake/exhaust upgrades for the CRD. If anybody finds out let me know.

You can also download the DIY instructions from tehm.

The exhaust was full custom.
2 different posts; both had good luck. One guy took the muffler out completely, that was not good. Then changed to an all stainless one. It helped. The other used a different muffler and was very happy. The big difference was the muffler, but they both increased to a 3" tailpipe. Unfortunately I can not remember the muffler brands they used. Anyone else remember?

We have an appointment with AEM next week to let them use our new Limited to prototype a Brute Force intake system for the CRDs. I've also recieved interest from Gail Banks Engineering on this subject but have yet to recieve a concrete offer for R&D use. Mark, the owner of TST said his test CRD was getting 27MPG and with his prototype fueling box it made 200 lb-ft more torque than stock!!! I bet it smoked like a freight train too. Give this a little time, the Diesel aftermarket is red hot right now. Good products are coming down the pipeline soon.

I am hoping the power boxes turn off the EGR system, as this seams to be the most commond problem with the CRD.
