Re: 1999 4.5 GRX
Hi Michael
If your vehicle had a VDL Conversion, it would have been either
Stage 1: Chip + Free flow + Air cleaner
or
Stage 2: Chip + Free flow + Air cleaner + Cylinder head/ Gas flow + Camshaft
The Unclip will be close to the vehicle's ECU (Left hand side of clutch pedal above the gearbox tunnel)
As Peter said…. there would be a stamped Number on the manifold
If you phone VDL they should be able to confirm which conversion stage the vehicle received.

When ever you drive a diesel you become blind and deaf!! The madman screams so loudly you can't hear anything and then the cabin fills with white smoke and you can't see anything!!!!
