Patrol TD42 Turbo

The guys at Opposite Lock in Brisbane did mine and they were not only very well priced, but they were a pleasure to deal with. My TD 42 now goes most places in 4th or 5th where I used to have to get back to 3rd all the time. These guys do not overboost or overfuel your motor because they set it up for reliability. I could not recommend them highly enough.

OK. Denco Diesel Click Here

Thats the system I have on my GQ TD42.. We installed another one on a mates Manual TD42 3 weeks ago...

Never tried anything like that before, but for the price, and power increase I would do it again!

Comes COMPLETE with 2.5 Manderal bend exhaust from Turbo to behind the end!!!! Under $3000.

Puts out better low down power than Safari and DTS systems.(thats what ARB sth told me.).

Bolt on the manafold, exhaust, crossover pipe onto the inlet from the turbo. and a few oil pipes... Seriously, if you have a good tool box and a day to spare, shiat it in.

All up it took us less than a day bt we replaced a few other things while at it.

Intercooler.
Im getting one made up Copy of the DTS but thicker and bit bigger (allows better flow and volume of air!) for 1/2 the price DTS Charges...

AWILL4x4 from this list makes intercoolers works for D&F Racing in Carrum Downs Vic, but could freight if need be. Call and talk to him about it. VERY knowledgeable.

Learn about turbos ARE has the best site for learning about Turbos and Intercoolers.

Thats the intercooler itself. Then DTS Sell the Intercooler Kit MINUS the intercooler for $250! So thats ALL pipes and hoses mounts Airbox the LOT $250!


I will up some photos tonight of the turbo and stuff.

David, they say that Denco is a very good kit as well, the guys here are right. Mine cost $2900 unfitted. I did not fit mine because I did not want any warranty issues to come up. DTS is also a very good kit and a friend fitted his but we both reckon our GQ goes better than each other's. No intercoolers because we both run 9psi boost and you really only need an intercooler when you wind up the boost & fuel. Opposite Lock Brisbane say fit the turbo first and if you want still more power then wind up the fuel and increase boost but also fit an intercooler. I believe them because they do fit a lot of turbos, Denco recommended them. Mine does not over heat at all & it uses a bit less fuel.

have a look at fitting a super charger, have fitted one to my 92 td42, bit more exspensive, equall to a intercooled turbo but with far more benefits. The units are filly servicable and unlike a turbo if something goes wrong take the belt off and keep driving. The units are the same as what holden fit to their v6 commodores and all parts are available over the counter. I tow a camper trailer so this set up is ideal as the power comes in from idle, most turbos dont come in till 1800 plus revs. I live in bris if you are interested in seeing the set up. Col

I have fitted a Safari / intercooler system I found second hand for $1500
to my GQ. Had it dynoed and new injectors. 98 kw @4000 rpm @rear wheels. Much improved over standard. Performs very similarly to mates HZJ80 with schwitzer turbo no intercooler. Also similar to my previous 4wd a 1986 Landrover 110 with 6.2 V8 diesel fitted.(the landy was better offroad though!)
