If the dpf is removed does this not put light on dash on, or affect amything else?
I would advise not to get a tuning box because they can cause problems, you can get a replacement pipe from Allard and then tuning is not a problem. At the end of the day it depends on how much power you want. A good tuner would be able to custom map what you want.
Allards replacement pipe you are talking about is to remove the EGR system not the DPF.
You can tune the 140 to give more power than the 170 .. i think the 140 goes to about 185. (although you can tune the 170 to around 200 - 210)
The difference between the engines is all down to the injectors it uses. The 140 is standard PD injectors .. the 170 has piezo injectors.
p.s. this is *only* information which i have read over time on this site, i could well be wrong, please feel free to correct anything i may have got wrong (which might be all of it! )
