[quote="tree hugger"]Yer, I can wheel spin off the lights if I want. No mpg increase though, when I Wound in right up it my lwb 3.2 did made 192 on the dyno, pretty dam good. Egr is blanked to clean the smoke up.[/quote
Hi tree hugger, this is very interesting and great to find someone who's had a dyno run have you made any other tuning mods besides tunit and egr to make ,192, do you know what the torque figure was?.
Ive just got a tunit but not fitted it yet, my 54 plate 3.2 manual lwb is currently running with decat and a large k&n cone filter and the extra torque can be felt from tickover through to limiter, the turbo spins up quicker, the engine revs more freely and roll on acceleration is a lot better, basically it feels as though the truck has shed half a ton in weight,change downs are vastly reduced on overtakes/steep hills and the engine will happily pull in higher gears from much lower revs than before using less throttle .
All this is also felt in a huge increase in economy , I fanatically gauge my fuel use on brim to brim tank fulls and readings are -
Pre mods, 24.5 solo with 5 people on board, 19.5 towing .
Post mods, 30.5 solo with 5 people and 26.5 towing.
I tow a 6 berth 23 foot caravan weighing 1.3 tons laden and usually hold at 60 to 65 on m/ways (including all the hills) and am very demanding of a tow car ( my pet hate is the thought of holding up traffic or being viewed as doing so) paranoid ?, |

Hi mate, I couldn't tell you what the torque was as I'm a big bhp fan, boy racer originally. You've got a really good benchmark for mpg's. The only mods I've made is the tunit, egr blanking plateand some bigger mud terrain tyres, can't remember what size they are but they make the truck look much better. I average about 26 mpg and that's round town. An erg blanking plate can be got from mydland autos on eBay, they will not bring up a fault light as long as they ate not common rail. |

There will be plug numbers and wire colours on the instructions, the ecu is in the passenger foot well. You need a live, neutral and the two pump control wires, one wire sends a voltage from the pump to the ecu and the other sends voltage back to the pump.
Don't use the stupid clips just remove some of the insulation of the wire and solder them on, it's quite easy when you've found the wires.
If your still struggling, when I get back from work sometime next week I'll photograph mine and post. |

Thanks for that. Its got a male and female plug on it.....the instructions are for common rail type diesels, so dont apply to my model.
If anyone else has used one of these and just plugged it in, a couple of photos would be of great help. |

Hi mate if I'm reading your post right, it sounds to me like you have the wrong unit if your mitzy is the mk3 DiD, then you should have the` tunit 2' which has a short loom with no plugs on the end and has to be soldered or scotchlocked onto the ecu loom, if your tunit has a loom with 2 plugs and instructions for common rail then its for a common rail engine only. (Tunit cr) |

I would upload a photo of my unit (not yet fitted) but being a novice on forum posting I haven't worked out how to do it, but if you haven't already looked then go to the tunit website where there are images of all the units and which models they fit, I previously had the tunit cr unit fitted on two common rail grand cherokee's but swapped it with the tunit guys at their Chorley HQ for the tunit 2 as the DID fuel system needs a totally different unit, hope this helps |
