Picked up our new/old Patrol 2 weeks ago 224K on the dial and all but bog standard.
Learning as much as we can - first on the list will be 3in exhaust. Intercooler, then turbo upgrade. 2in lift and suspension overhaul.
Building into a tourer towing up to 1.5T Drifta Dot6 camper trailer, with moderate off-road capability...
Happy days.

Welcome to the forum . My Dx has a factory turbo & intercooler, 3" exhaust + modest dyno tune (tuned for towing 13psi & torque with turbo cutting in at 1800rpm). For a reliable tourer I would advise not getting too carried away with tuning. With a 2" lift & towing a camper of similar weight with a vehicle GVM upgraded to 3.9t to you we find that our off road capability is better than moderate. Do you have leaf or coil rear?
