I finally had the last few engine mods done to the big turbo 4.5 litre 80 series. Started with a 4inch snorkel and modified the air box with a 4 inch inlet and 3.5 inch outlet straight into the turbo. New 3.5 inch mandrell exhaust system off the 3.5 dump pipe, custom surge tank running an 044 Bosch fuel pump and Bosch 725cc injectors. Chip torque did the tuning of the Microtech, and so far it's not quit right(really fuely around idle). Also pulled the 30mm spacers out from ontop of the 5 inch coils and put some 16x10 neg 44 steel wheels on with the existing 315x75 (35 inch) Bighorns. Then it was off to the Transmission centre in Underwood where they fitted a nomad valve body, a trans temp gauge and a lock-up kit. I then finished off with a pillar pod, and packed it full of Auto meter gauges ( oil temp, oil press and boost/vac). So far the big girl puts out 290 hp and 700 nm. My wife tells me it's about time to stop, but there's still so much more I want to do. Maybe later, right now I need to earn some doe. If I knew how to resize photos, I'd put some up.
