Safari Computer Enhancement Chip & free flow exhaust

Marilyn, that is a pretty wild claim from someone though from all reports the Safari Enhancement which also includes an intercooler change to increase the intercooling capacity. That is as well as the exhaust and the chip. The enhancement does a great job by reports I have read. Safari Page

I understand the bigger intercooler capacity is hard to fit in too if you have the ARB Delux bar and a winch, though some have managed to fit it.


Looking at the graph for torque, which you asked. Look at the bottom lines, read across the bottom axis to 1500-2500 revolutions in the engine. That is a good part of the rev range for towing in the gears, there is a heft increase, but not 100% or anyway near it.

Love to have it in mine.

Marilyn,

I think this might be what you are loking for wrt to claimed output improvement.

Not sure about fuel improvement but most people say slightly better or same.

Safari Dtronic performance for 100 series

I can guarantee one thing Marilyn.

That rig will chew lots of fuel, regardless what you do t it, especially when towing a 3 ton Van.

But as they say,,,, who cares, as long as you are enjoying yourselves

Our little Navara 3.0 Lt TD, gets 5 km/lt, in hard desert going, and about 7-8 km/lt on the highway towing a camper trailer,, All up weight, 3.75+ Tonne..

Hope it works well for you,
Cheers

Marilyn,
We have the APS package fitted recently to a new 100 series auto.
Fitting the larger intercooler requires a bit of trimming behind the grill and has been effectively done here in Geelong on a number of units, by ATS.

As to consumption, just returned from Swan Hill, lightly loaded driving steadily.
Covered 692km out of the main tank (90Lt) before switching to the sub tank.
Low fuel warning light had not come on and needle was just above the emty line,prior to switching to the sub tank.
Will top up the main tank for an accurate consumtion figure shortly.

Marilyn,

i have a 2003 TD auto cruiser with the D-Tronic(safari)3"mandrel exhaust and also up in boost to 15 PSI.the difference in performance is huge but no increase in fuel use.i tow a 18'4"van and the change in performance between standard and modified is amazing.i can get 1200 odd kms from 170 ltrs towing with the a/c on and 110ks in cruise mode.i would definitely recommend these mods to anyone with a 100s TD.i was also told a larger intercooler would make minimal improvements so i left mine std.as for new torque figures only a dyno run would show this,but as i said it is really noticeable.cheers Paul
