Has upgraded drop in intercooler,pump tweeks and dgas lpg system.
Turbo fitted very easily,all bolts hoses and gaskets except manifold gasket
included,quick delivery,cost $2400 with taxes and manifold gasket.
First test drive a little disapointing,but small adjustment to fueling and wow
what a difference,80 kph hill with gas on now 100 kph with gas off.
Max egt so far 650 deg c up long hill.
Boost around 17 psi gas off a little higher with gas on.
Very happy so far
cheers

update on vnt,i made an adjustment to lpg system,i was a bit worried about the amount of boost and power it was making,my lpg system uses a rising rate fuel pressure regulator and a fixed jet for overall lpg amount,so i reduced the jet from 40 thou to 30 thou,still very happy with performance with more acceptable boost level.Did a 400 km trip to the east coast on the weekend,some fairly level 100 km stuff and some twisty hilly also.Fuel consumption was the best i have ever had 7.75 lts per 100 km diesel,don't know about lpg consumption but previous best was 8.5 diesel and 2.7 lpg so with jet reduction it would be a fair bit less.Intake air temp is always higher i gess thats why allisport recomend fitting upgraded intercooler,doesn't seem to worry it and egt never went over 650 deg c. Fuel consumption was done by filling tank at home in the shed so fuel was visible in filler neck,driven and refilled the same way so should be fairly accurate.
