--- Quote from: "RedlineMike" ---do you have any idea of what it would take to fit a TD5 into your truck?
you would be better of buying a TD5 90 & swappin ur stuff over :wink:

Yep, building one at the moment.... was a 200tdi.... soon to be Td5 :wink:
ECU mapping, I know someone who might have kit very soon :wink: (blatent self plug :wink: )... 230bhp.... interesting to see how long they last with that (and those figures are probably rolling road figures :roll: - read the rolling road post)
Isn't that hard if you use the Defender set up (etc etc) rather than using Disco bits (mainly the wiring loom)
I'm a fan of the TD5 - and by modern car standards the electronics are pretty basic.... people just get scared because it's got an ECU :shock:

its a full defender kit from a m8s scrap 90
its already got allisport intercooler, ecu has been re-mapped not chipped, egr removed few other things
so its already around the 180 ish mark, just add a hybrid turbo and hey presto
but when running properly take it in 2 b tuned properly
and since looking at them, at 1st i hated them but now i quite like them,underneath that plastic and maze of wires , its still a engine !

Not had any problems with either of my TD5's, the first one did 140K and was chipped and intercoolered wihtout problems (then i sold it and its still going).
My current one is great, had water up to the windscreen and plenty around the ecu and battery without a stutter, she just keeps on going. Easy to tune and more powerful in standard form anyways.
Definatly go for it, youll not regret it :)
