Hi,
a Disco with 245/75/16 and standard springs:
a Disco with 35in wheels and about 3in lift look like this...
-
Thinking about putting an exhaust side exit before I smash the rear silencer...
My disco is a '97 300tdi auto. I've already removed the cat. I've seen 200tdi running with no silencer at all 9without making too much noise)...
any suggestion ?? keeping/removing mid box, putting a smaller mid box, putting a small rear box...
thanks in advance...

Disco 300tdi auto - engine upgrade

Just to say that I'm a happy man !!!
Took the disco to Allisport to make it feel younger... and it worked...
my disco's got EDC and aircon so the choice is limited
- re-mapped chip (I could have gone plug-in)
- optimised intercooler (standard size)
- silicone hoses
so the result is:
- not as much delay from a standing start... as soon as the turbo kicks in it flies (ish) - used to be scray at busy junctions
- driving on motorway is now a pleasure - I can hold my speed when going uphill, and overtaking is safer
- I think the fuel consumption has improved if I drive as I used to do
would I do it again... OH YES....
on a side note:
- the workshop is not at the end of the world.. but I guess you can see it for there
- the crew at Allisport is great
- Andrew (the boss) knows his stuff big time
