    Mine is in warranty, and I have the inter-cooler. They can't argue that one. Not in this country. They should be fitted as standard, before shipping to hot climates.
    170HP remap. How will they detect that one?

    Which reminds me..... I want to swap back to the original ECU shortly, as I need to to take it in for some warranty work..... Rear main is weeping. It started before I did the remap. It didn't even make 30K....

    My thoughts were;
    Stuff it!!!! Why wait 2.5 to 3 years for the warranty to run out, when I could be enjoying it now???? Lets face it, you might have 50% more power, but you aren't using it very often as 90% of your driving is spent at less than the factory max power.

    I suppose..... If you kept that handbrake on fairly hard you could use all 170HP continuously for a while......


    Cheers,

    Phill.

    Interesting,
    My rear main seal was leaking after 12,000 km,
    Be interested if they comment on the I/C at the service, let us know please.
    Even the 150 hp from BAS is so nice
    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    No need to put your old ECU back in. Just flash in original map.
    Cheers, Billy.

    As Billy said, no need to change the ECU. Just return your new one to standard tune.

    My rear main.seal was done a few weeks ago at 6000km. They said it was damaged when installed at the factory.
    Its been in a few times with the intercooler in and they havent mentioned it. If anything they should give you an extended warranty to owners who put an allisport in.

    Umm? The intercoolers fitted as standard is more than enough for Aussie climates. 🙂

    Just not as good once modified - and they have no need to meet a spec they aren't selling.

    You ever seen the temperature of the air post standard intercooler!? One word, HOT!
    Although, that may have something to do with me turbo pressure ;-)

    HA HA it has every thing to do with pressure. pressure far outweighs the affects of ambient

    P
    T = k


    then you gave to add in the mechanical friction, IE the shear of air by the impeller

    Yep, and most of the time the Allisport manages to get it right back down to ambient!
