    Land Rover Land Rover Discovery TDi specifications

    Given my 4BD1T with slow shifting 5 speed truck gearbox does better than that. I don't see the contest.

    IMO a 300tdi tweaked to within an inch of it's life will give similar torque but slightly higher power than a stock 4BD1T.
    A 4BD1T tweaked to the same standard will deliver close to twice that of the tweaked 300tdi.

    What are we allowed to change?
    Turbos?
    Intercoolers?
    Fuel pumps?
    Can we call up Carcrafter in the US who blew his Isuzu head gasket with 60+ psi boost?

    A 4BD1T with just tuning (i.e. screws turned) can deliver ~200hp with no intercooler. At 2000rpm I can put 100hp to the ground.

    I found a spec for a PUMA 90: Performance: 0-60 mph in 14.7secs.

    This would presumably be the fastest stock diesel defender/discovery.

    Who here has a 4BD1T which beats that?

    so in that case the 4bd1T is capable of producing more than a V6 VE commodore?

    Not if a v6 commo can better 500 HP

    Edit: But then again the limit of the 4BD1 has not been reached yet, so v6 commo will probably need to do better than 700 HP to be sure.

    wait my bad the latest sv6 commodore is producing 260HP or 264 metric HP so in other words the 4bd1T is 150Kw (200HP) when the new defender isnt making that much power and it has had hundreds of millions of dollars spent on the development

    well that proves that it has a loud turbo whistle and that americans are prepared to goto extreme lengths to prove something but who on this site has had there 4bd1T tested on a qualified dyno? because knowing quiet well that a 1986 5 speed standard 4bd1 produces not even 50HP well something very special must be done to achieve more than 100hp
