    - The aftermarket turbo is probably not tuned right to be outputting that much boost for the car

    There is so much intake noise, that when the car is on the highway, you have to shout to other passengers in the car.

    I am trying to find a dyno place that will help re-tune the car to a safe level before something bad happens.

    I will see what happens when I get some work done on it.
    take it to see Brett at 4WD Obsession in Melton mate. he has a 4 wheel dyno and knows the Patrol well. He will steer you right.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
