engine upgrade
I have a 2014 D4, this engine in my car, also goes in to a different model Land Rover that puts out higher bhp
can my engine be upgraded, to that higher power?
an extra 40bhp and 100Nm of torque which improves driveability considerably, taking the total power output to near 285bhp and 700Nm !
If you chat things through with Pete he can offer you other options, if you wish.

Pete's site only mention the original 245bhp offering, not the later D4 power outputs. I understand that these can offer around 300bhp when remapped.Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

3.0 6 speed Disco 4 TDV6 takes power up to 290bhp and 700Nm giving a 0-60mph time of just 7.6 seconds!
The current 8 speed Discovery 4 SDV6 models are the best yet, giving reliable engine outputs of up to 310bhp and 730Nm resulting in a 0-60mph time of 7.0 seconds, and 0-100mph in 19.9 seconds while delivering over 30mpg!

I have an Alive map in my D3, tuned to suit my needs and very happy with it.
From what little I know (and thats not much), I would only go to Alive or BAS they both understand what they are doing and the backup service it VERY good from them both.
Alive have always done mine so I like to stick with someone I know and can trust.Dale
Any experience of the Alive maps in D4s with either engine please Mike?
