Have you recently began to think about how your diesel work truck could do with a bit more power? Have you ever wondered what a bit more power or torque in the right place could do for you when your carrying a heavy load or just going about your regular driving? Our simple plug and play module can easily give you an instant increase in power. You'll be excited about the possibilities for your

The addition of Fuel Pump Compensators to enhance power withAfter Market Turbo Systems:There is quite a debate raging about Diesel Fuel Pump Modifications as people strive for more power than is standard from their After Market Turbo Charged 4WD! One of the main reasons driving this topic though is misinformation from diesel pump shops promising a large increase in power in addition to the gain

Myth- This turbo is totally oil cooled as water cooling is troublesome.Fact- There is no such thing as a small oil cooled turbo charger!! All turbo chargers are oil fed due to the fact that they all have bearings that need lubricating. Turbocharger units are either water-cooled or not! Full Stop!! Unfortunately most aftermarket turbo kit manufacturers specify non-water cooled or use the

The Sulphur debate seems to be the ‘Scape-Goat’ of this century! Since the start of 2003 there has been an epidemic of leaking diesel pumps most prevalent in 4WD’s and small commercial diesels. It is only happening in these vehicles with a ‘rotary’ pump fitted, due to the fact that a ‘rotary’ pump is running and lubricated solely by the diesel fuel whilst the ‘in-line’ style pump, found mainly on

By Andrew Leimroth (Andrew is one of “The Diesel Experts” see www.thedieselexperts.com and has personally fitted on average 2 or 3 turbos a week for the past 10 years. That’s thousands of tubos!)A turbocharger is engineered to match the specific requirements of the engine it is fitted to. Each is dependent on the other to maintain optimum performance. Don't think of the turbo as a bolt-on

Radiators and Air flow:* Consider a larger radiator. Some Factory radiators are a 2 core and can be increased to a 3 core radiator.* Please… resist fly screens where possible.* Consider the size and positioning of driving lights, winch, number plates and particularly bull bar air flow.* Check to make sure air conditioning condenser fins are clean!!* If an Intercooler is mounted in front this can

‘Correct Diesel Tuning’Diesel tuning is more important than we think. Lets get down to the basics.Diesel is distilled crude oil (Distillate). Unlike what most ‘Hollywood’ movies promote of a diesel truck hitting a wall and exploding like a small nuclear bomb, oil does not readily ignite, particularly a liquid form. If we atomise it though, it will burn readily. The diesel principle relies on air
