man tons and tons id suggest fuel system upgrade,stud upgrade turbo upgrade, upsize your intercooler. thats awesome you got it imported to Australia

Crocmania 12-05-2012 07:43 PM

it was awesome until the cost of shipping, Conversion and compliance came along. $$$ got more and more and more. stud upgrade is there a fault with the standard ones?

Crocmania 12-05-2012 07:44 PM

i was thinking the dual fueler system and a cam upgrade would you recommend turbo and intercooler upgrade before that?

UTAHFORD 12-06-2012 04:22 PM

studs are just a good idea once you start up grading everything else no matter what engine it is thats my personal opinion. And I think at least an intercooler upgrade keep your egt's lower. Talking about that do you have gauges to monitor egt's, tranny temp, and boost those are the 3 main ones to keep an eye on

What did you have to do conversion wise?

Crocmania 12-06-2012 07:48 PM

no i dont have guages as yet im having a hard time finding a decent Pillar Pod for the RHS, Conversion wise had to make the truck Right Hand Drive so the engine had to be moved over a bit, new dash new trims, new mirrored image steering box all the pedals moved etc etc a

Defiantly get gauges and everything associated you dont want to overheat especially if its running on a tune
