What would you say is quicker, a TD5 90 standard or a 200TDI 90 with full width intercooler,tweaked full pump?
why would you even be botherd which is quicker?
landys aint designed to go fast just go anywhere
if someone throws a bucket o water at it ..........the 200 coz the mastic round the tupperware lunchbox under the seat housing the ECU and the FBT and the APC and the ADI will have let a nanometer of moisture in and they all will have simultaneously fused into a big glob of sillycoon in a td5!!!
tee hee, yer time'll come
TBH have heard good things about the TD5 but am always put off by the germanness of it and the need for a computer to read the ecu. My 200 does just fine but i don't really need to go fast - the difference in cost for me is better spent elsewhere.
ECU and other electronics are under the drivers seat. Not the most water proof of places in a Landrover.So as my friends has just brought a td5 90 he is going to be fitting a snorkle and wants to be going in water over the bonnet and more that likely it will also be muddy. Will his electronics be affected much?
I was driving along the motorway in a convoy the other day, thought i was doing about 75 and when we got there the person behind me in a brand new volvo said that doing 90 must have been pretty hairy in my 200 - guess i need to check the speedo!
