2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Buckingham Blue

That’s a good price for a 4.4 as it’s an ECU out job.... Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

1974 Series 3 Lightweight = "Millie"
Many, many other Landies over the years

All a tuning box does, is intercept the signals going back to the PCM, and lies to it

In doing so, this overrides a number of safety parameters built into the PCM, to prevent the engine doing any damage to itself

Use a tuning box at your own risk...

We use Quantum all the time and they are fantastic... They mapped my old 3.6 (now owned by a member on here) they have done two 4.4's of mine including my 405. They MAP the individual car NOT a generic MAP for a 4.4! Mine gets far better MPG now and it smooths out all the flat spots etc

@cam-tech-craig can i ask who you used please
will

Mikey remapped my 3.6 after having a couple new turbos fitted! He's an agent for Gary Wood at Alive Tuning. Different car to drive and certainly flies when asked!
Pull my twin axle Buccaneer with it, wont say that I don't feel it, but it certainly pulls like a train!
