RedRover I have done the 6.5 in a disco 2 and a 1.9 tdi as well as the om603 and I love the om603 the best at first I hated it but after I had the pump rebuilt with larger elements and added a HX35 turbo it was a whole different animal the only thing I had trouble with was the adapter I ended up...

Yes I am using the PSOC 5, I am writing the code which has taken me the longest in part because I had to come up with an equation for each signal that is produced by the land rover engine. This allows me to play it threw a DAC which is controlled by the PSOC via inputs from the diesel engine...
