There's a Local company doing it, all rural diesel proformance (same as all rural mechanical).
Would be worth while having a chat before you do it, with who ever you use. I would be cautious with a fly in mod,as will be hard for after sales support.

I know with the 70 series, he won't do them with out up grading the clutch. As you are almost doubling your torque the clutche's can't handle it, and are screwed with in weeks.
Not trying to scare you, just making you aware of what you are up for.
But you can get awesome results out of them, especially the 70's

Cheers for feed back mate, yeah been doing a bit of research on this, will def look in to the mob you have mentioned, there's a Facebook page 200 series owners, he has a lot of respect by all customers, they do a poop load of the 70s as well did around 400 last year, he travels up and down qld and northern NSW, I'll mention that to him, I have a 200 series so not sure what's needed for the 70s

I spoke to them last week and they said he was planning on making a trip soon, hopefully not too soon as I'm still in the market for a new car after the patrol just went bang....

I've heard nothing but good things about this mob, they were recommended to me by a mate in Qld.

From what I'm told, they have a pretty good driveline but their cluches are notoriously bad, even under stock power.

In saying that, how much power do you need. I have a ranger, which has a bucket load of power compared to my old triton. I personally have never bothered tinkering with motors too much. No matter how much power you have, you get used to it in a few weeks than that becomes the norm, and you want even more power.

From Farcebonk:

"With under 2 weeks to go we are trying to get final numbers together for our road trip. We will be going from Mackay to Darwin via Townsville but only have a handful confirmed with deposits paid.
We are stuck with the dates of the 17th to the 31st sorry and realise this has effected a few who were booked in but can't shift these due to workshop commitments in town unfortunately.
Let us know asap if you wish to lock in or we can look to do another trip in 2018.
Cheers DPU."

Just had the patrol done. The remap replaced the Chip Tune addon, took that off this afternoon. The addon gave the car plenty of extra punch already.

Took it for a drive, much smoother thru the rev range, smoother boost, lower EGT's and believe it or not more top end speed. The car couldn't get past 140 before, does it easily now.

The guys are only in town for a few days so if you have the opportunity you should seriously consider it while they are here.
