110 is back after a replacing blown transfer box

fitted the Lazer RS8's and allisport intercooler plus pipes.

painted the cage

just need to wire winch, put rope on, fit hybrid turbo and get it remapped Smile plus paint the roof to match the rest of truck!

I feel maybe a suspension upgrade is next maybe Fox shocks and Gwyn Lewis challenge suspension kit

Bought some gear the last week!

Got two Laser RS8 light bars to fit above screen to the roll cage using the cage tube X-Clamps I bought off ebay for Ł13 a pair.

Also bought a new Allisport intercooler so Just need some Samco hoses next week then its off to Alive for the hybrid turbo to be fitted, also strong remap to be put on along with uprated airflow meter. Cant wait to see the transformation as ive been waiting long enough lol think the last thing will be the Syncro slick shift and thats the running gear done for now.

Your Land Rover is looking great. Thumbs Up I always like the rugged look of a external cage.

I have the X-Clamps on my 90. I have them fitted so they hang upside down to keep the lights below the height of the cage.

I have them fitted on the back facing rearwards for tailgaters...I mean rear winching and reversing Laughing

Haven't done anything to it since last up date but it has done 167,000 miles now!

also it fell into the ditch last week but at least it got out on its own! Rolling Eyes avoiding a oncoming car on a country lane so I now have a crumpled passenger wing and missing indicator plus a wheel arch thats hanging off, ill take a pic of it tomorrow

Im waiting on Jose from TD5 Inside to get back to me with when he's visiting the UK as he'll be supplying one of his remaps to match my hybrid turbo.

its due its 6000 mile oil change so it'll go in next week for that and a weep on the transfer box to be fixed plus maybe ill get them to change the cracked screen for a new one so I can finally use the heated screen which hasn't worked in my ownership! Rolling with laughter

Got new first four rock sliders with the tube tree sliders so the current ones. will be coming off. 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)

bankz good to hear of a happy customer! can't wait to get mine done as Ive already got intercooler decat, 3" air intake with no restrictions, silicone pipes and it goes bloody well for standard now lol.

Although my EML keeps coming on due to MAF sensor going out of range with the extra air flow so I think I need a uprated one, does anyone know where to get one from? Mr. Green Thumbs Up 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)

Did the air box/ intake modifications today, removed the crappy LR restrictive loosely fitted air intake and installed 3" tubing all the way to the wing Very Happy Also removed the restrictive water separator.
Not quite finished as still need to remove the restrictive tube inside the air box itself that’s next weeks job. Got a custom snorkel being made out of stainless so ignore the Heath Robinson snorkel, that’s only temporary until it arrives so the tubing will be cut down to in the wing for the new snorkel to plug into !

Also added Defender2.net stickers Mr. Green Bow down

Drove in white out blizzard conditions on the A470 Head of the valleys road last night was so fun I did three laps of it before eventually carrying on my journey home! at least a good 5" on the dual carriageway and quite a few boy racers from the welsh valleys thinking they are Colin Mcrae and running out of talent into the banks etc hahaha

pic below is of the actual dual carraigeway couldn't even see the central reservation!

Finally got the hybrid turbo on and a remap from Jose at Performance/td5 inside.

pulls very well 1-5th but seems to be the same as normal in 6th and runs out of puff at 85mph so I suspect limiter is still on so will have to get him to make some adjustments to the map and remove limiter as I do a lot of motorway miles.

To be fair on Jose I wasn't home only my wife as I was at work so couldn't test it before he left for his flight back to Portugal so he didn't know, very happy with the extra oomph though surprised a few people tonight lol.

been a long time coming but happy its all on now Smile

mechanic says my injectors are rattly so thats the next job to do along with replacing cracked heated screen and rotten air con condenser. 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)

what a completely different car with the remap, gutted I haven't done it 80,000 miles ago!

so free revving and eager to go, easily keeps up with traffic and on a motorway hill where it used to drop under 70 it just pulls bang on the limiter at 85mph without breaking a sweat so I highly recommend a remap from any of the usual suppliers, alive BAS, td5 inside etc! 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)
