Twin turbo?

just a thought.. the TDV6 is a single turbo verison of the Ford/PSA twin turbo V6 used in the Jaguar S type, churning out a 206hp (4000rpm) and 320lb ft of torque against the single turbo version in the D3 pumping out 187hp (4000rpm) 324lbft at 1900rpm. So I assume the injection/cams etc have been modified for more low end torque across a wider range than the twin turbo model at the expense of top end hp. Has anybody thought about modifying an existing TDV6 engine to fit the additional turbo (with the jag/PSA ECU etc) and then chipping it - ..... just a thought.....

I think you'll find LR themselves are already working on something similar Wink The End

I hab the same idea and i have found out, that the Lr Tdv6 has smaler Injektors then the Jaguar!
The next think is, that the Turbo from the Jaguar is much smaler than the Landrover, so he brings more power in the high and the Lr in the low!
The problem is, that it is not enuth place for the Exaust with twin Turbo! Byby Marco
