Transfer box swap?

(1/4) > >>

Jake:
I'm going to swap all the bits from my V8 onto my Tdi inc the 235/85r16 MTR's.
On the V8 it loses power going up long road hills in 5th with these big tyres on.
Now, i have a 1.410 ratio transfer box. Should i fit it or will it the Tdi be man enough to take it?
biggest problem is the Tdi struggles up long road hills with the caravan on the back.
Any thoughts
I'm going to work on the engine power bit asap.
main thing, do i swap the transfer boxes or not?
 :D

chuggaman:

a gentle breeze can slow my tdi down

chuggaman:
tdi got less power dude

watching an f reg transit van with a ton of rubble on the back go past you is really sad

Jake:
Power plans.
1. Get rid of cat converter
2. Fit Safari snorkel
3. Fit K&N filter
4. Remove egr completly
5. Talk to Alisports about an upgrade intercooler

Fingers crossed it should be ok after that lot!
