Adding boost increases compression temperatures and burn speed already, so advancing timing more is a very bad thing. Especially on engines that weren't intended to be turbocharged.
EGT is only an indication of cylinder temperature. Advancing timing gives you cooler measured EGT but higher in...
Plenty of other good brands. I would stick with viscosity over brand. I find cranking is faster and oil flow comes up far quicker in winter with 10W40 than with 15W40.
10W40 for year-round use in your climate.
Pick any decent brand/spec of oil. They're all better now than they were 30 years ago when they wrote the FSM.
Reasons this won't end well.
Your engine isn't strong enough to take the cylinder pressures or crank loads.
Your turbos are too close in size (flow) on compressor and turbine.
Your injection pump won't have enough fuel.
@gerg on here compounded a 3B but it broke the crank. Later on he got...
The video directly above is a very good comparison. Same weight (they ballasted the ute to match the wagon), same trailer dyno attached, same day same track.
The 4 cylinder stomped the v8. Because more torque (500Nm vs 430Nm) and more gears (6 vs 5) to stay in the right rpm. It also used...
MHI used cm for A/R values. Their turbines are generally smaller and more active than Garrett turbos with the same compressor size.
6-7cm turbine housing will be fine. Turbine blades you want 11. 12 is the original but it's an older and less efficient design. 11 blades is fast spool which...
2554 is too small compressor for your engine at that altitude. It'll be better than no turbo but there are better options.
I would go for a TD04HL-19T. Because it's got a decent size compressor and a small turbine. You will need both at 3000m altitude.
Don't let sea-level australians talk...
Big old thread here on 4BTswaps.com about fuelling, turbochargers and maximum power/torque: Om605 / 606 mercedes - https://www.4btswaps.com/threads/om605-606-mercedes.79074/#post-788370
The only machine work needed to rebuild these is pulling/pressing liners. Valve work in the head would count but if you're changing the whole head that's done.
ROFL. No Roscoe. You're exaggerating again. Just like the HZ-T not existing.
The rear axle is 2300kg max permissible which is 100kg more than the LR GVM and the front axle is 100kg less than the LR. See below. Your legal weights (GVM) are also much lower than that and lower than the LR...
ROFL. Exaggerate more. Go on.
You're telling us that Toyota put springs so hard in the 75's that they only sagged "a fair bit" under 3.5 ton?
But since you bought up Landrover. You seem to forget that Landrover did the dual cab long-wheelbase pickup for decades before Toyota. With a...
Is that from the filter? If so it's doing what it's designed to do and don't worry. Change the filter and keep driving.
If that's direct from the tank then it's time to clean the whole system. No additive will help you.
