TDV8DK

Discussion Starter · May 7, 2010

I am the happy owner of a Range Rover TDV8 MY07 VOGUE, but I think it lacks a little power. I know that in England is a series of companies that offer modification of my engine, but there is also a specialist in Germany? I live in Denmark, so it will be easier to drive to Germany, rather than take the trip to England.

Best regards from Denmark, car hating country NO. 1

I've just joined this forum and I'll try not to incur the wrath of the moderators (in light of previous posts on these guys), but I believe JE Engineering have a place in Germany. Their UK site shows a Stage 1 tune for the TDV8 giving 315PS. I have used them in the UK over a number of years and I've always found them extremely helpful.

go with JE if you can - no question - very highly thought of in GB, they also have long standing historic links with LR. I have no links with the company just a very satisfied customer...

A remap is always better than a tuning box, the box only has one benefit and that is you can remove it prior to a service or sale of the vehicle. Most box's only dump additional fuel, a map from a good company balances everything including fuel pressure, turbo pressure etc etc. There is no nedd for me to rewrite all the benefits with a map there is enough info on the web already.

Be very wary of cheap box's and maps, I know of one person who had his TDV8 done and the excessive heat warped the exhaust manifolds...
