Re: TD42 turbo potential..?

yeah, ive owned and modded a few turbo vehicles and always found you can more get stable boost with an external as the internal ones usualy melt or cant hold thre pressure properly.

What do you mean by use an internal if you go any where near mud? :?:

The compensator assembly from a TD27t injector pump found in Terrano's, Mistral's and Navara's will work.


Does anyone have any specifics on how to attach the boost compensators to the td42 pump before I rip into it?
