TOYOTA LANDCRUISER VDJ78 4.5L 1VD V8 TURBO DIESEL TROOP CARRIER (WITH DPF) OCT 2016 ON

Description

Complete Manta “DPF back” or “turbo back” exhaust systems – available in 3″ fully mandrel bent aluminised or stainless steel tubing, in 3 noise level options.

The turbo back system does require a recalibration of the vehicle’s Engine Control Unit (ECU) to remove certain functions associated with the DPF system. This is intended for off-road or race use only.

The 1VD V8 4.5L common rail turbo diesel engine in the current 70 Series Landcruiser has forged itself a reputation as a tough off-roader, with truck-like power and a fantastic amount of torque right from the word go. Off the factory floor, the Landcruiser is shackled by the very restrictive standard Toyota exhaust.

With the standard exhaust going as small as 1 & 7/8″, and running through a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and baffled muffler, the sound of the V8 motor is nowhere to be heard. The fitment of a Manta 3″ exhaust system changes all that! Running full 3″ piping, right from the DPF, to the tail, it’s has a pipe only configuration for maximum noise level under full throttle – with the DPF reducing sound inside the cab when under light throttle and cruising, ensuring no drone. The DPF back system has no mufflers at all, for maximum sound. We do classify it as a “quiet” noise level, due to the factory DPF still being in place a restricting a lot of noise, however there is a measurable increase in noise over the factory system, and a discernable seat of the pants power difference.
