Yhey will help a little bit but don't expect a massive difference. The best way to achieve better torque and power is to turbo it

long stroy short. it is a diesel, only 3 litres ad it has no turbo. so it will always lac power and any mods will have small gains. as even the manufacturers have found out, the only real way to get power from a diesel is a turbo. headers will help, but not worth the cost.
