Turbo the Triton

I fitted a Denco (Schwitzer) to my '97 Triton a few weeks ago - it was fitted professionaly by Marion Turbo Services at Mitchell Park here in Adelaide. It was a very very professional job - beautifully done with 'old fashioned' expertise and care. I did not want to have any risk of cooking the motor or wrecking gearboxes etc with the extra power and this turbo won't do that - the Triton's no F111 even with the unit fitted. However, it is definitely more powerful and has more torque - it will now go up fairly steep grades into the Adelaide foothills in a higher gear. I am yet to use it in the sand (which is where I had the problems with the normally aspirated motor) but am doing Googs Track in July so will be a good test then. I expect the turbo to make a massive difference to the way it will 'drive' the vehicle through sand though.
If you have some good engineers there to fit the unit properly I think it's a good investment. Should be about $3,000. For a little more my installer had a look at the car at 500 kms to check everything over for no extra cost.

Hi - yes -the new exhaust system either comes in the total 'package' from Denco or (in some cases) is made locally by the installer. In my case it all came from Denco straight to Adelaide.
