Really like your offroad experience! I want to sell my 17 rims and buy 18 or even 19 but your posts made me change my mind back. Very Happy
Great videos

Keep your 17's.. unless you don't plan on going offroad... they are much much much better than 18's or 19's.

So, the latest upgrade is.......

SOFTWARE (aka ECU Remap) by Torqtune here in RSA!

Also removed the EGR function via software and have been given a blanking plate which I should still fit sometime...

This Freelander 2 is now truly a very powerful car with ultra-smooth delivery and low-down torque. I haven't done a dyno run yet, but will as soon as I can.

The most notable part, my torque is now available from approx 1100rpm and the turbo lag is massively reduced!

is it worth it? Abso-frikking-lutely!!!!

Love what you have done with the wheels & tires. Dont think we have the Firestone MT in the UK which is a shame.

They look as if they'd hold mud on the upper section though.
Also they do look a bit like (my pet gate) side steps. Shocked
