Further to my post at 29443 and the helpful responses posted their, I am now being confused!
Denco (
Berri Diesel Service in SA) say they will fit a watercooled version turbo if I want it BUT the Schwitzer Triton turbo conversion does not require it because the diesel engine runs cool enough not to warrant water cooling - only the petrol engines that use turbo boosters need it.
MTQ in
Adelaide sell the Mitsubishi after market turbo which IS watercooled - I don't want to spend money I don't need to - it's $600 more than the Schwitzer.
Which one? Anyone had a non-turbo Triton or non-turbo Pajero converted?????????
Thanks (again)
George

George,
All I can say is that in my particular case,
Berri Diesel was right. They removed my water cooled Nissan turbo and replaced with the "dry" (the term they use for non-water cooled) Schwitzer turbo. Also, the later-model Nissan 4.2TD (series III) changed from water-cooled to dry as
well.
I have great faith that
Berri Diesel Service would not steer you in the wrong direction and you'd be
well advised to follow their advice.
Cheers
Roachie

The Denco non water cooled turbo I fitted to my 80 series is still going even after I sold it. Has now done around 30000 km since fitting.
Can recommend them.
