I did read some time back of a German company getting close to 800HP (at the drive wheels on a dyno) from an auto TD5 but that was after installing a new crank, pistons, chips etc. and increasing the displacement to 2.8 litres -- just why you would do this I do wonder about but then I'm a Luddite.
Thanks Boydie,
Did you have any info on this at all? Very curious to know how far one can be pushed.
Cheers

Hey guys,
Just wondering what is the most power achieved from a TD5. I know everyone does the VVT, ECU etc but that’s not what I mean. Forget about drivability or lag I want to know where all the huge power TD5's are or of the engine can even make large power.
Hypothetically, if someone wanted to fly the LR diesel flag and make a dyno monster, what is possible from the engine, where would internal issues start under high fuel/boost and are the internals up to higher hp.
I’m not about to build a 1000hp TD5 but doing a search online for high hp diesels and they are everywhere, most 1000+hp, I’ve just never heard of a TD5 getting anymore than a upgraded turbo and ECU.
Cheers
