Thanks for the reply! I ended up replacing that part number and did an EGR delete while I was in there. Appears there was a pinhole in that boost pipe so I beleive that was the issue. I have a thermostat ordered as well while it’s all torn apart. As far as the compression test would that just involve pulling injectors one by one and inserting a compression test Gauge?

Picts of the winch set up would be great.

Will do once installed.

Went with the Warn VR Evo 10s and am currently planning to to an install based on https://crankshaftculture.com/2020/04/12/mitsubishi-delica-winch-mount/

Thanks, and congrats on the new Delica! We should link up sometime. It would be cool to start a little network of Michigan Delica owners for support, knowledge, and parts.

I'm pretty familiar with turbos, not Delica specific but just in general. What's up?

We definitely need a Michigan Delica network, it'd be awesome to have a meet up sometime!

Winch Installed! I am definitely going to a more finished mounting solution. But it's solid and works.


From a recent trip to Copper Harbor. I have some other pics and videos I'll upload later!

 

[Codycampbell]

Awesome! We are headed up to copper harbor in ours for 9 days in early September.

 

[hardknockgarage888]

That's awesome! it was a great time. Let me know if you want some route recommendations.

 

[tservo3]

I would love to hear about route recommendations! I have taken my Delica to the UP several times now but haven't taken it off road.

 

[Codycampbell]

I'll take recommendations... I've been up there one time before and have some idea... but we were in a caravan that trip, hoping to get to places and camp in places we couldn't last time. Beautiful country up there.

Roof Top Tent is the hard top SmittyBuilt... https://www.4wheelparts.com/p/smittybilt-overlander-hard-shell-rooftop-tent-2983/_/R-DSBP-2983

The Awning +Tent on the side is a 8x8 ARB awning https://www.4wheelparts.com/p/arb-shade-awning-2500mm-x-2500mm-814410/_/R-BHWQ-814410 with the 8x8 tent attachment https://www.4wheelparts.com/p/arb-deluxe-awning-room-with-floor-813108a/_/R-BHWQ-813108A

The shower/water tank is 6in PVC attached to my roof rack with larger L brackets.

The Roof Rack is 4 Heavy duty Rhino Rack Bars with tall Rhino Rack Legs RL210... The kit comes with 3 bars I bought an extra bar and set of legs off amazon to make sure my tent had plenty of support... https://www.rhinorack.com/en-au/pro...heavy-duty-rl210-black-3-bar-roof-rack_ja7783

Here are a bunch of picts as well.

Nice winch by the way... I'm just carrying one of these dudes for now...

Nice are you back up in the UP or one of the lower lakes? Here was our setup at Hoar Lake in copper country... We had a ton of fun finding spots to pop up and camp each night.
