Hi Pieter,

Have done some further searching and found the installation manual from the Snow Performance - Boost Cooler on the manufacturers website.

Check it out:

The diesel FAQ is here:

Interesting!

Hi Frans,

I have the 3l diesel auto 2002 model - and according to the computer print out of the before and after dyna tune my car's kw output went up from 105kw (standard) to 125kw after the chip fitment. I can definately feel it being a bit more responsive with my foot on the pedal!!! But my car tend to smoke badly when going uphill under towing conditions - so I have been wondering if it is not over fuelling?? Any ideas - and what should I do??

Regards

Hi Ross,

Thanks for those web addresses with the installation guide and FAQ's - I downloaded it all - now to find somebody in Cape Town that could actually do such an installation :think: I went to the dealer locator - found only one in SA - and where will it be - JOHANNESBURG!!!! :thumbdown: Cape Town is always behind with everything :sleep: but definately the best place to stay :biggrin:

I am not much of a technical boffin :doh: - so don't know if I will make out any of it really. Then again - I don't know if I (or my Patrol for that matter!!) want to be the ginue pig - and it does not seem anybody has done this on a 4x4 vehicle!!! Any other Patrollers (staying in Cape Town) who wants to give a helping hand here :helpsign: it will be greatly appreciated :salute:
