    because doubling the power out put of the county diesel takes about 2 minutes with nothing more than a pair of side cutters, a 10mm open ender and a small screwdriver.

    County=funner,easier to work on, sounds better,goes better by alot and take the bonnet off the puma and put it on the county and then it looks just as good if not better in my opinion though....

    cause my engine FITS in the engine bay and doesnt need a "power bulge" I have somewhere else I can set the coffee cup/map/spare tyre/tools/laptop/stubbie. I'm also less likely to care about the fact that it might scratch the paintwork doing so.

    (as I dont have power this and assisted that and electrical other as the driver I'm also less likey to have a "power bulge")

    They also say that these modern day engines are built to take different grades of fuels but I don't think they understand what punishment a isuzu can take! Put it this way go and ask most people what they think if you said I am 1. going to turbo a diesel that has 400k on the clock at least (run in as you would say blknight) and 2.run well over 15psi maybe even 30psi or higher and they will tell you your dumb, crazzy , stupid, insane, have no idea etc etc but little do they know these motors will not only prove them wrong but the isuzu will love it

    Correct you are dullbird I find that there is some very helpful and extremely knowledgable people on this site and in particular on the isuzu section...in the past I have been ill informed and now with help and research I now know more about certain things related to mechanics and diesel engines (nothing compared to some on here)....also having had a stage1 v8,200tdi,300tdi and a puma I can say that a isuzu powered county does go better than all of them even after the 300tdi being tuned and going great for a 300tdi the isuzu doesn't rev as hard obviously but it doesn't know what a hill is but the puma sure does one bad/good thing about the old county is when people (non landiers) slag off saying its an old diesel and then you pass them with ease whilst there in there common rail crap

    I took Nuehue's Puma 130 for a beach drive a couple of weeks ago. While I was happy to jump back into the turbo Isuzu I found the motor went quite well especially considering it's 2/3 the size. I know the Isuzu will probably last longer and cope better with water/dust with no electrics, but the Puma motor/interior makes a defender more of an everyday driver while maintaining great off road ability.
