Great bit of kit! How much improvement do you get by going to a set-up like this?

There isnt a huge gain in modifying the manifolds, the factory design sees cylinders 3 and 4 taking most of the air to where 1 and 6 are recieving the least amount of air. This in return has 1 and 6 running leaner therefore hotter than the others. So while you will see a small gain from the larger manifold its all about get even air flow to all 6 cylinders.
Im hoping 200hp at the wheels with out having to modify my injector pump, so if I cant get there it will be fresh injectors and a tickled pump :D
Go the 200 Killer Wasps!

G'evening mate!

Good to chat again mate thanks for the call.
G'day mate!
I fitted the new 3inch exhaust yesterday, what a difference that has made to the GU.
I also fitted my boost gauge and took the beastie for a decent run around! Traveling at 100ks by the GPS and in fifth gear at 2000 RPM the factory boost reading was at 5 psi. Under-load and traveling at 100ks and in fifth gear at i was doing 2300 RPM and the boost reading was at 9 psi. Would it be fair to say, that the factory max boost is around 8 to 10 psi?
Looking forward to fitting both the intercooler and the Ye-Haa turbo!

G'day mate!
I have three space cases, i will be selling one or trading it. I bought three to fit into the back of my D40. I now only need two for the Patrol. If you are interested maybe i could do a deal with you if you need another one. I have 3 different sizes to pick from.

After perusing your thread again mate! It looks like you have cost me money again! If you do not mind, how much for the HID light set-up for your GU? The bloody lights on my GU are useless. I am even thinking of fitting HID kits to my IPF driving lights, especially heading up to the Cape next year!
PS, "Darling, Its his fault, he keeps making me buy things"

Awesome. Thanks for the photos. Would it be ok to grab the largest case?
As for the lights if you can wait until im home i can look it up, but if not Mick. on here has a vendor thread for them.
Awesome let me know how much you want for it and I will grab it when Im doing that way in 3 weeks :).
Im a little hesitant to meet your wife lol :P
G'evening mate!
I hope you had a great Christmas Day, i can see you out on the streets singing Christmas carols! lol
PS, not to long now buddy before you are back home!
Regards,
Paul
Thanks Paul
I ended up driving home and got back at 11 boxing day morning, needless to say everyone was over the moon to see me. Thanks for your call as well. I hope you had an awesome day mate with the family and all your new patrol bits :).
Anyway I am hoping to have all the mods completed in the next 4 weeks, so I though I would post up the dyno run with the factory setup.

Hi guys,
When I saw the above pics with the new HID headlights, I couldn't resist, and ended up speaking with Mick. about them, and will get some next week hopefully, if work pays me properly. They look amazing in the ute. It's good to see the build coming along so well.
Looks great, keep up the pics
G'evening mate,
I thought you might like this one!

OK been a while since an update. Just before chrissy with the help of some members from here I purchased a drop down fridge slide. This will help the girl access the fridge as she is only 5ft tall. Also the wiring that was installed by the previous owner wasnt up to mys standards so I replaced all that and wired in some new stuff.
First off this is the wiring comparison for the supply to the canopy, you can see how small the previous owners wiring was.
http://i1248.photobucket.com/albums/...ps43e3c87f.jpg
Then I installed the fuse box with a Neg bus bar, switch panel for canopy lighting and a voltmeter. As you can see I have changed everything to anderson plugs as well for a better connection.

Then the fridge slide went in. This thing is great, the design and placement of the struts makes it a breeze to use even with a full 80L fridge.

While I was in work mode I also fitted some reverse lights as the standard ones are useless. These things turn light into day :)
