Some people use an alternative method with an EGR plate hole and other trickery (check longranger's posts). Each to his own but it still going to allow 'some' carbon through from what i can tell.

Am just the one who hasto actually fix the vehicles and see the problems, every 30k interval (valve lash adjustment and every repair order that I get in my intray that heads with "vehicle lacking power please inspect" has gross amounts of carbon buildup, and when I do the 30 k intervals on pajeros with rather sensitive DPF systems that require them to use low ash oils there intake systems even after 60-90k are in damn fine shape.... Only passing on knowledge not trying to cover up or make excuses... And as for the chip situation for extra power... Word of advise,
Take the bloody chip setup out completely before it gets bought in for an engine light or etc on... You will not get warranty on anything in powertrain if evidence of a chip etc has been added to vehicle

What I said was just a suggestion, not the be all and end all to fix it, just what I have picked up from pulling a million of these things apart weekly, let me tell you when I went from building hypo chevs at home for other racer mates that I race with to starting for Mitsi it was a rude shock to see a carboned up egr and manifold!! The triton and pajero and challenger all get the same oil treatment unless the pajero has a sensored DPF system... Then it gets low ash... Both same engines in some.. 3.2l 4M41 and some Tritons and challengers get the 4D56 2.5l, now what I have picked up on is the pajero with the mobil 1 low ash was slot cleaner engine... Same goes for the Mercedes and the jeeps that I unfortunately hafto work on also... Was speaking with another tech at work and he has put an oil catch can on his and running low ash oil and it has prevented the carbon buildup in his 2.5... It's taken the soot outta the system and the oil away thy sticks it to all surfaces...
I haven't dealt with or seen the chip-it kit so might be one worth suggesting to the boys at work that wanna do it, the common one I see and have nO end of drama with is predominantly the steibauer
