GU TD42 Turbo Upgrade

[hutchy84]

Yeah i spoke with the guy who owns united on saturaday at the 4x4 show and he has a 4.2 in a 2010 model and he has is set up and he is pushing a whoping 930nm of touqe which is pretty impressive and he was saying he could go so much more with the engine and the bottom end was all standard still just shows you how strong the nissans TD42T are and there drivelines

There is so much potential in the TD42 you just have to eliminate the limiting factors first

I finally fit a 3 inch exaust to my patrol and put a K&N air filter in and went to United fuel Injection for a Tune to which they installed a manual boost controller and they welded the intake pressure relief valve and wound the fuel up a little. Wow What a difference in performance feels like im driving a new car thanks for your advice guys really appreciated. Just have to be good now otherwise she will just drink the juice lol. Just took a while to get it done was saving for a house. I would recomend anyone looking for a basic upgrade to do this.

Hey Hutchy

If you don't mind me asking how much did that cost you? I've got a 3" exhaust on my ute but I am pretty sure she is the stock turbo, she seems to go alright off the line.

Hey gubigfish,
The tune cost me $450 which included the supply of a boost controller, welding of the blow off valve and doing a pre dyno run then a tune whilst on the dyno - i gained massive gains from what i originally had really impressed the the guys at united diesel. best $450 i have spent on the car in my opinion. Only took them 4 hrs.
