Thread: Comparing td5/puma against new hilux

Of course you are comparing older landie engines with the newer Hilux. A standard 2.7TDV6 puts out 140kw without chipping and the 3.0 TDV6 puts out 180kw - both engines manage another 40kw when chipped leaving the Hilux in their wake.

My brother has a Hilux bought new in December - in standard form it is quite a dud and my brother now regrets selling his old 3.2 Triton - on the road the Triton is the better performer but on paper the Hilux is better. The hilux also rides worse than my 101 and his family constantly sooks when they are in it as a result.

The Hilux like most toyota engines are also rans. My other bro has a new V8 diesel cruiser and he had to have it chipped to get it to perform.

My 2.7TDV6 RRS - though weighing more than both Toyotas easily out performs both despite the RRS having the smallest engine.

Of the L/R vehicles (engines) you listed, really only the Puma is relevant and would produce similar outputs to the Hilux though a well tuned/chipped TD5 would give a standard or chipped Hilux a run for its money.

what you're really looking at is a comparo between a td5 and a ford, the hilux isnt in the running...

I had a laugh once when a guy I was working with told me straight out that he had a mate who had a supercharged 4.5 petrol landcruiser that had 520hp at the wheels without any other work done other than bolting the blower on.My D4D hilux was chipped to give 135kw or there abouts and at no time did it feel it had anything like that.

What he considers dangerous limits and what toyota consider dangerous limits are clearly very different things.

I would happly line my td5 up with any of your rattley old isuzu's.

in the proccess of putting all my power parts from my old 110 onto the new 90.

*Turbo technic hybrid vnt charger
*ASE inter-cooler
*3" mandrel exhuast (maybe 2.75) only part i need for obivous reasons
* IRB tuneable boostbox
*Silicon hoses and egr gone
* BAS hot map and a race only map

Reheheallly?

How's John getting on with his approx 200kw build?

Or would the prize be sufficient to ship the go-fast parts of Randy's compound turbo Isuzu in the US?
