Hi All

i'm looking for the best way to extract a few more horses from my 3.0l TD D22.

i'm carrying a custom made set of drawers under the canopy in the back and have just up sized the tyres slightly and obviously this has slowed it down a bit. once the camper is hooked on and loaded up i suspect it will be a significant change.

Just after ideas and experiences regarding diesel chips vs exhaust mods vs tuning vs anything else there is out there that might bring my available power back up without hurting the fuel economy too much.

thanks heaps!

Jackson

gday mate, i recently fitted out my 3.0ltr D22 with a 3inch dump pipe and exhaust.the increased torque was instantly noticeable as now the turbo spools up alot quicker giving you more power from idle.

my navara was fitted out with a Hurricane brand exhaust and i am very happy i spend the $1300 to fit it.

cheers.

i thought that it would mate but it sounds entirely stock. unless you looked at the bigger diameter pipe you wouldn't even know.

I fitted a 2 1/2" exhaust to ours, when I had one, but wish I had done it in 3", and a 3" dump pipe.......but $$$$'s stopped me.
That and a real dyno tune.. ( dunno what they did, but wow , the difference )

I believe a Dtronic chip is the way to go as well, Again I did not do this, for the $$$$$.

Towing, and the tub really loaded up, I got 6.5km/lt.....
Rest of the time I got 9.5km/lt.....

Cheers
