Does anyone have any suggestions for my 02 gu. It drinks diesel like theres no tomorrow between 4 and 5 ks per ltr empty cruising at 100km. Ive had the dump pipe and exhaust changed and tuned on the dyno but no glory. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Also what do you think about motsons stage 2 upgrade or would a different turbo be a better option

Check the pump timing, some of these came out of the factory with retarded pump timing, we see differences of 20 kw in stock vehicles that is not really heard of in other vehicles that are standard. It also makes them sluggish and produces high EGTS.

yes its great, but sort out your issues before changing things.. it will make it that much harder to setup if theres problems.
