[For Sale] 2.7 Twin Turbo setup
I have been collecting these parts in preparation for doing a twin turbo swap on my D3. However, the 3.6 V8 has put an end to this project, so thought I would move them on to anyone's else potentially looking to do the same
Turbos came from an S type, having done 46/7k mikes or so, along with the manifolds, oil feed pipe and engine wiring loom, to accommodate the 2nd turbo actuator
No idea if it will have worked or not, but the main parts here are on offer to anyone who is as ambitious as I am

Might be just a little beyond my engineering prowess.

Rob was using a new D3 turbo, and a used D4 turbo. Stumbling point was the need for a custom crossover pipe which couldnt be done in the required timeframe, so was shelved
This option does away with the need for a crossover pipe altogether
Being from a Jag 2.7, all the required drillings are present and tapped in the block alreadyMy D3 Build Thread

I dont know if the LR ecu will support the 2nd turbo with the correct firmware.
Likewise, I don't know if the Jag immobiliser can be worked around
