that's got me thinking. Do you mind if I ask who did the engine rebuild and what did it cost? 110 Defender 300tdi & Penman trailer with ally exped top and roof tent

its a 90 with nothing in it.

my engine is rebuilt completely @200k miles. Maybe that's cheating ? Lightened flywheel, balanced with crank and pistons assembly.

Before the rebuild i just remember waiting for the turbo to wind up all the time with the engine slugging away until boost was achieved. I think the VGT turbo enables 'efficient' power all the time, because boost is there all the time, hence the better mpg.


Which turbo did you use and was it for a discovery or defender 200tdi?

Thanks
