How Can A Land Rover Be So Fast?! | Storm Tuning

[@bigbill74scots]

Mine has a storm stage 2 remap, a stage two turbo, an allisport intercooler, straight through exhaust and runs 22psi. It spins all 4 wheels from a standstill. Through an auto box. Wearing 18" Muds. Epic kit 😎

Have what they call "stage 2" in my 2004 D2, but also swapped in the torque converter from a V8. 320,000km and going strong. Loved the video - thanks.

What does the TC from a V8 do better than the diesel one? 🙂

That and a centre silencer delete/Straight through exhaust.

[@onwheels8232]

190 hp are some. How did you manage to get them all under the bonnet? What about the torque values? I have a disco 1 300tdi (by the way my first landy). Here is some works i have done to it: -Totaly rebuilt the front and rear axles; -Disassembled the r380 gearbox and chenged the syncros; -The same for the lt230 and changed the bearings; - changed the front prop shaft with an wide angle one; -done the conversion to flange on the rear diff and changed the rear prop shaft; -Two inch lift springs with raptor front radius arms; -changed the timing belt, water pump, thermostat housing and thermostat, inttake/exaust manifold gasket; -resurficed the flaywherl and new oem heavy duty clutch; -The only tuning i've done to the engine is the boost pin from fourby; Stock intercooler and stock boost Totaly different animal I mean i was in fifth gear with 500kg on the back up hill at around 1950rpm and the damn thing wasn't give a shit. Plenty of torque (enough that the clutch was starting to slip) Lucky for me i am an mechanic so i don't have to pay the labor. Regards from Italy 😁

Hi. I also have a 2002 Discovery 2.5td5. I've seen in another video a blanking kit for the egr....where can i find to buy the kit? Thank you

[@TirsbaekTV]

It's available from many places but we'd recommend Alive Tuning or Allisport.

[@rossisaacs4604]

Living in Australia and looking into buying one very soon. Any tip on what engine I should get for maximum tuning potential?

[@cdchantler]

I raised the idea of remap with my local Land Rover specialist. They gave me a funny look, shook their head and said “standard is best” I hear the exhaust manifold bolts end up popping out amongst other things

[@TirsbaekTV]

Everyone has a different opinion when it comes to remapping (and it also comes down to what you're using the vehicle for). Personally we've never had any issues as a result of a remap. So long as you drive and look after your Land Rover properly then there's nothing to be worried about. Speak to Storm Tuning if you have any worries, they'd be happy to answer any questions you have.

[@cdchantler]

@@TirsbaekTV the same place actually now fits alive tuning remaps, so clearly they had enough owners saying to them “my engine hasn’t exploded”

[@Langlom100]

Wow sounds amazing ! Are you running the bigger intercooler or stock ?

[@TirsbaekTV]

Stock for now. Uprated intercooler will come soon.

[@jjt1093]

Bit of advice get rid of the heat shield around the turbo, It doesn't dissapate heat enough and will help with exhaust manifold warping, my d2 is close to 550nm now and horse no idea but it moves and pulls like a tank.

[@lestergranger1685]

EDITING. When you make uploads like this, where you compare speed/take off/handling, can you not do a side by side video comparison? Or even ghost in the unmodded and then the modded over the top so we can see the real time difference? Maybe even a PiP with the speedo/tacho in the corner of the screen? I'm a defender fan (yet to buy my 1st and I live IN London) but do like your uploads

So I have a 2004 Disco 2 TD5 and the chap I have been taking it too for servicing keeps telling me that I am driving it too hard by doing 75 mph on the motorway and that I should keep it to about 65 or the engine won't last.. Is this true or is he being a spoilsport. It is all standard except that I have deleted the EGR valve and it has done just over 172,000 miles. Thanks Guy

[@tsparc2]

Nice - almost makes me wish I had a TD5 instead of a 300tdi. Will this wear out the engine, drive train etc quicker?

[@afk1448]

That was my worry but I went for the stage 2 regardless. The increase in driveability is massive. I permanently have my windows down to hear it burble. I think in reality it will increase drivetrain wear as the extra torque will wear gear teeth away faster, but it's worth the money even if I will have to reconditioned the gearbox and t case down the line.

[@afk1448]

The 300tdi is a sweet sounding engine and a friend of mine has a boost pin on his 200tdi and turned the fuel up himself and I'd imagine the 300tdi would be the same job

[@tsparc2]

Yeah got a new turbo and double core (so same size externally) intercooler from allisport and I’m pretty happy with it but then I heard about the boost pin.... seriously considering it. Had a chassis swap, new suspension, bushes etc so it drives better than new - no body work yet but then I don’t ever want to get to the point where I’m afraid to scratch it!

[@TirsbaekTV]

It will, of course, put the engine, drivetrain etc. under more stress relative to the stock setup. However, that's not to say you should be worried. My Defender has been running the same setup for 3 years now and it hasn't caused any issues whatsoever... and that's with over 300,000km on the clock! - Liam
