I recently posted a request for information from contributors regarding the retro-fitting of a turbo to a Triton. I received some very helpful replies and I eventually decided to have a Schwitzer fitted (Denco) by Adelaide Turbo Services (A.T.S) at Mitchell Park in Adelaide. I’ve only 60 odd kms since I got it back from Bill Keen (the proprietor) so it’s early days but the fitting has been done to a very high standard. The unit has made it a ‘new’ vehicle – the extra/torque power is very even throughout the whole rev’ range but it doesn’t feel (or sound) as if it’s straining or being stressed.
I had a look at the sump when I was underneath greasing the prop shaft and not only has it been re-fitted with plenty of gasket cement but each bolt has had some applied too – like old time skills and competence! Bill also replaced a blown reversing globe and the (knackered) windscreen wipers – no labour charge for those items or charge for the globe - just the cost of the wiper blades. The cost of the unit and fitting was a little more than the other SA Denco dealer (who is in the country so not so convenient for me although was highly recommended in the forum replies) but Bill’s price includes a re-tune at 500kms and I don’t think the other one did. All in all I wish I’d done this when I first bought the vehicle – I’m sure it will make sand driving and overtaking easier and safer.
I have no connection in any way with Bill Keen's business.
