Yeah boost comes in early under acceleration that is true but just sitting on 60km you would be at about 1to3 psi and 80km 3 to 8 and 100km 8 to 11psi. Under acceleration I was able to get 19 psi, so my point is at this stage you have enough air flow that a AA is doing it's job.

JC and Sprint, yep it has been hard getting used to the td5 just got nothing on the Isuzu, if it dies I may replace it with a newer Isuzu. But I am really happy with the 130 and looking forward to some mods

I agree the 130 is by far the best touring rig, but that engine when compared to a turbo 4BD1....pity it can't legally be retrofitted or I'd have a 130 in a flash.

Some Recent pics?

Regarding pics it just looks like a boring 130 ATM. Waiting for some mods then I will post in the defer section. There are some in there from when I bought it.

I must be a lucky bugger then having a 135 isuzu twin cab tray back

Just need to get my finger out and finish the turbo install i now have 90% of the bits

Yeah ill just stick with the AA then it seems to be working now that you don't have a isuzu I hope that you don't disappear to the defender section and stop posting on the isuzu section

Lokka you and mick wil have to get in and get the turbo on before this years landrover rally in sydney I hope to have mine all turboed up again this week some time and then finish of the bling and ill be sitting in it this year rather than the puma
