I am in the process of cutting my 105series into a single cab obviously that will get rid of a lot of weight, although i still want more power!
At this stage I am thinking turbo/supercharge although that is more a long term goal. After exhaust, snorkel etc, what ther mods are there? Eg. bigger injectors etc.??? If you have any ideas please comment and tell me how to go about doing it or where to get it from
Cheers!

Getting more power out of my 105 Series. 4.5L
Moderators: toaddog, Elmo, DUDELUX
The 4.5 loves forced induction and will make good power and torque.
Be careful what you do now, as you wont use those parts later if going turbo, in some cases.
Best bet would be add a 3" exhaust, that can have the turbo installed into the front engine pipe later, and add an XEDE piggy back with tune loaded, should see a 12-15% increase, and the XEDE can be used to tune when turbo fitted.
When you add turbo, a Bosch fuel pump [044 fits onto the tank mounts and supplies more than enough fuel] and a boost measuring fuel reg to up pressure as boost comes on, with 98 fuel, intercooler and 10 psi boost should see around 220-230kw and 550-600nm at the rear wheels from one of these.
I have had a turbo intercooled version, and currently have a supercharged intercooled version of this engine in my 80.
If it is auto, chnaging the torque convertor for a built version will aid throttle response, and the lock up convertor brake material will be better for use in low range to give manual type engine braking, and the internal auto pressures will need fiddling to make it chnge gears when it should, becuase throttle position will be different with more power when turbo is added as well.
If its a manual, will need a 4terrain clutch, or better, like a Mcloed workhorse or RST twin plate.
