I am getting an xcal3, injectors, full exhaust, fmic for it and I want minimum 400bhp with the 33" tyres on. I have seen alot of people on here liking the work of "Blueboost" my (stupid) question is who is he/them and what contact details can I get to call em up and ask for their input on injectors and valvesprings before I take it for a tune there.P.S ill keep yous posted on the progress.

Some custom work yea, but all sorts of things have been done to these patrols. The patrol 4l can make good power too though, over 1000hp. A mate in mackay that builds alot of tough 4wd's has over 400rwhp in his daily diesel patrol.I've driven a mates diesel ute with a gt35 on it and it's still painfully slow though, sounds mad though.

It will be running the standard patrol box and transfere case with a dellow automotive conversion bellhousing and custom engine mounts and custom exhaust that about the most major work involved and im getting the two harness's mated together by a conversion expert in brissy. Quick question. im getting a bosch 044 inline pump from surge to motor, what size walbro fo u recommend for intank to fill the surge? with a 255lph be enough?
