Hi everyone, I'm currently rebuilding my N/A TD42 engine with aftermarket turbo.
I have two questions, are the oil pump and squirters from the N/A to turbo engines interchangeable. Listings on 'Patrol Part' suggest they aren't but I'm sure I read somewhere that they are.
Second question, is there any point doing this upgrade? Original one doesn't look too bad, are they pretty reliable or is it advised to change when doing a rebuild?
G’day GGQ Mate!
Far from a mechanic I am but my nuffy logic only suggests to me that faster/higher pressure oil flow would only be needed on much higher pimped up RPM wicked TD42 weapon donks?
In regards injector specs that is even further out of my OEM only off the shelf known knowledge but have read and overheard in person solid arguments that ‘Turbo Spec’ advertised could possibly be a myth maybe?
More to do with precision built pump pressures and injector crack points customised to suit each other I think but hopefully a Dark Arts Master can chime in here
