🧼 Let’s talk about intake cleans 🧼
Over time, carbon and soot from the EGR system can build up inside your intake manifold - especially on modern turbo diesel vehicles. This buildup restricts airflow, chokes performance and reduces fuel economy.
❌ Leave it too long and it can lead to:
- Reduced power and fuel economy
- EGR valve malfunction
- Excessive smoke
- Clogged Intake runners
⏱️How long does it take to build up? ⏱️
We commonly see significant carbon buildup from 40,000km onward, especially in vehicles doing lots of short trips.
✅ Benefits of a clean intake:
- Improved throttle response
- Better fuel economy
- Smoother idle
- More consistent power delivery
📊 Real-world results:
On average, we see 5–15% gains in airflow and restored drivability—especially when paired with our ECU Recalibration or ECU Remap.
If you haven’t had yours checked, it might be time. You’d be shocked what’s hiding under there!
