Hi Meccles I would be interesting to know your application not sure if you are into the technical side but do you tow, what van and how fast. Do you have fuel consumption records and are you considering doing any pre and post checks, like say 0 to 100kph ;)
If you had a scan tool doing a set driving loop and recording a few parameters (perhaps EGT) would be very interesting.
Just me thinking out loud really.

Dealers who do ANY modification not including a Trailer braking system are breaching JLR directives..
Love how everyone is dishing out huge wads of cash for exhaust system upgrades..
Just did turbo to diff upgrade/modification.
Better economy, better spool up...
$600.00

Re my exhaust upgrade, it is ceramic coating on dump pipes that I like. do I have any data or scan gauge etc for recording before and after details? Nope. But plenty of evidence available of effectiveness of these coatings. Same with power and fuel figures. If I can't tell difference by seat of pants, then I really wasted my money. And will tell you all so. Have wasted lots in past, and still haven't learn't so shows how foolish one can be:D But, speaking to others who have had their Toyonissmazda done, they were all very satisfied. Mates 4.5 toyo V8 is a different animal after exhausts and good re map. Steve at roo systems reckons they have done a heap of Disco's (4) and that they respond really well to better exhaust and ecu re map. Mind you, as he would. :D

Somehow the Cat fell off or was misplaced during fit up [emoji48] which suits the fact I do lots of Dry Grass Land work.

Simple maths for area using 3" front pipe and splitting into the dual rear (Standard system which is just resonators) shows the standard rear pipes easily outflow the primary pipe.
As for sound - ask Muppet or Toxic Avenger [emoji41]
Silence and then a ballsy growl when right foot is applied.
I was impressed. :cool:

Meccles, would like an update on your roosystems remap and other changes if you are happy to share.
I did an ecu remap (not roosystems ) while it certainly goes better when you stick your foot into it's a non issue because I just don't drive it like that. Of greater interest to me was shutting down the EGR and fuel economy improvement. Well the EGR is done but after 2 tank fulls my fuel economy has deceased by 10% so I am not happy about that at all. I am considering my next step.

I had a Roo Systems twin 3inch exhaust and ECU remap done on my 4.4TDV8 over 18 months ago and I'm very happy indeed. Power went from 230-276kw and torque 700-850nm; dynotuned; economy is little change. Towing (caravan) is effortless - but towing a laden 21foot Bushtraker van we never saw better than 17.5 l/100km (3.3tonne minimum!!), at 100-105kmhr, so I suspect anyone getting under 15 in a TDV6 towing that weight is quite remarkable!
Cheers
Turn the LLAMS knob as required.:DQuote:
