Thanks for all the comments!

Poly saucer bushes made a massive difference - especially when braking - no more tugging and "shimmying" when you brake over a bump.

Felt a bit more torquey I think with the N/A manifold...but I'm not sure if that's just a placebo effect though. Didn't make a massive difference, but then I think the standard TIC manifold is probably a lot better than the standard turbo manifold to start with.

Mine isn't hydrailic lifters - think they came in the 940 TD only over here (a year after mine) - I've still got the normal lifters, which over here I struggle to find the shims for without paying the earth.

Yeh, I was quite suprised to have no EGR, and it's not been blanked by someone either - the exhaust manifold has a casting mark for it, but it's just not drilled out.
