I installed my Heath PMD isolator the other night. Everything went smoothly. I'm pretty impressed so far.
Getting the stock one unplugged prooved to be harder than I'd thought being tucked way down under the intake there where my sausage fingers can't reach...
So I decided since I had to remove the upper intake anyway, I may as well fix it up a bit. I ground some of the webbing away, and after seeing all the soot and crap in there, decided to block the EGR. A reamed 45mm frost plug did the trick quite nicely.
I must say, I'm quite happy! The truck certainly seems to run better. It seems smoother and snappier.
My only complaint was when I tried washing all that soot off my hands, arms, face, and the floor of my shop. That took as much time as the work on the truck...
