I wouldn't bother with trying to get dyno readings from an auto - it's not easy to get accurate results and works the box very hard. Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

2010 Range Rover Sport Supercharged HSE Santorini Black

133bhp at the wheels before a map. 173bhp after

And an extra 63 lb ft, again, at the wheels

Equates to somewhere around 260bhp at the flywheel in a D3/RRS

2009 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black

Hello Mikey, thanks for that. I've had quotes between £300 and £450 to delete the EGR valves and remap.
Does that sound about right. And do the EGR valves have to be in good working order to before they start the delete and remap or can they do it with a faulty EGR valve.

Atb, Steve.

The EGRs can be as dead as you like.

I suggest you contact member "geoff." (note the full stop) - he can fit the BAS emulators and remap it for you. Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

£450 sounds perfectly reasonable for a reputable remap + EGR delete.

I would be wary of the cheaper options. Cheap maps are cheap for a reason

All done and sorted guys, thanks for all your help.
The cars got bags more torque and a lot faster of the mark,
and the turbo lag has all but gone. I'm well happy with her now.
