Hi Guys, I currently have a 2010 76 Series GXL single turbo V8 fitted with a Steinbauer performance system. I am upgrading to a new 200 Series GX early this year, and was wondering if I can swap the Steinbauer from the 76 series into the 200 series. Is the system compatible?

Part numbers & price is different, although I'm sure you would have Googled that.
Other than that, I can't help.

No as 76 is single turbo and 200 is twin turbo. A different fuel system with different injectors.
Sell it and buy the correct unit is the safest and correct thing to do

I think you should sell it and NOT put a chip of any sort on the 200. The consequences are $22000 for a new short motor.
I have seen the results of a chip on a 200 and it was not pretty. They have a lot of power and heaps of torque already. A 3" exhaust will be about all it needs.
The good thing is "it's your call and it could be your bill".

Not necessarily Noto, just thought I'd ask the question, particularly as my 76 series will likely go to auction after I trade it.

i asked Steinbauer about moving a module between 2 models of the same make. They said no.

IMHO you really need to ask these type of questions of the manufacturer or vehicle specific forums like LCOOL.

Thanks for all the replies, I spoke with Steinbauer & they advised that they are different models because of the twin turbo.

Did everything I wanted it to do. As
well as the Steinbauer, I also fitted a long range fuel tank, bullbar & winch, heavy duty clutch, roof rack, drawer system, Sat Nav & reversing camera.
