a bit more grunt?

which one would be more beneficial a 3inch mandrel bent or a intercooler for the 3lt td if you could only afford one of these which would it be?

Exhaust all the way mate, as long as you include dump pipe.

My vote also goes to an new exhaust!

Heard good things about gas injection too.

I'd do everything, your not going to blow up a ZD30!

I'd go the intercooler. As a bonus to cooling the compressed intake air and improving the engine's efficiency, if the turbo lets go, the intercooler catches the bits before they destroy the motor.

About an hour and a half ago I HAD a ride in that thing.

Wicked, awesome, hold on to your undies and watch the speedo needle go up as fast as the tacho normally does.

Quite an impressive ride, and quite a blast to get around in!

I use to have a 308 powered fj45, It was fairly awesome, But a LS1 would be orgasmic. Seeing as your from Melb, I'll be visiting Healsville for a joy ride. What do you drink for bribes?

Jim Beam & coke in a can was the nectar of choice if I recall correctly. You'll bloody well enjoy it, I know I did and I'm pretty much hooked on diesels.

It was also great meeting another member from the forum.

Tony was right Jimmies for me 08 kingcab.Your welcome to come up for a spin when I'm back in 6 weeks.I'll take you on some of the tracks up here.

have to go the exhaust mate. It would end up being less than half the price to. Duno what the intercooler kits are like for navaras but every other car ive ever turbo or intercooled using off the shelf kits always end up costing more due to unforseen issues (ie missing or unsupplied parts). Plus and intercooler is not much use if the air has got nowhere to go once it gets through your engine
