So it's flush the intercooler, check for leaks in the hoses, clean out the inlet manifold and EGR valve making sure the EGR valve closes properly, then as stated, block the rubber pipe to the EGR valve when putting it back.
Diagnostics would help checking the function of the MAP sensor and the boost level.
One quick check you can make is to unplug the MAF sensor (in the inlet hose from the air cleaner), a faulty MAF can do funny things. Check the air filter is clean. Check the in tank lift pump is working.

I MEAN, sorry, he's a degree slower IN THAT PARTICULAR SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES, a sudden hill climb required. Otherwise I'm relatively happy with his performance.

I use the gear lever to drop into third, then it does well. The autobox is reluctant to downshift on hills without stamping on the throttle and when it does downshift it often goes down 2 gears then immediately upshifts to third. Using the gearlever to force the shift removes the need to stamp on the peddle.
