Interested to hear from anyone that has installed a Dtronics in their RA Rodeo 3.0 tdi ! Are they worth the money and what sort of performance did you achieve ? I understand they are approx $1,600 fitted.
With thanks for your reply.

G'day Ian
As no one has replied, thought i would just let you know i am very happy with what the D'tronic has done for my TD Troopy. Temperatures remain the same as before even in extreme heat. Maybe a fraction better fuel economy, 5% maybe.
Cheers Lyndon

Ian,
I'm not interested in chipping. No particular reason.That's just me.(Ludite).
But have been looking at dieselgas for almost a year.
On the way, have seen repeated good reports of matching a 2.75" mandrel bent exhaust to Isuzu motors. Roughly sub $1000.

We have settled on the exhaust, and are negotiating with dieselgas fitters at the moment. Mainly trying to find enough space beneath the tray.

Please don't thank me - I love confusion. (Strewth I'm still married, eh)
Jeff.

Thanks fellows for your replies. I still haven't made up my mind. Whilst I understand the vehicle will preform much better with a Dtronics chips, I'm not sure whether or not I can justify the expense.
Thanks again
Ian
