Your Landy 50th Anniv. sounds super-bad!

Hello Wotland.
The sound through the Magnaflow high-flow cats and Borla cat-back pipes is pretty awesome. My buddy here in Berlin, Germany drives a 50th Anniv. Landy fitted with the Borla cat-back, a K&N air filter and a Mark Adams chipset, but it doesn't sound quite so menacing! What else have you done to your engine? I'm just curious but I think he's just a little bit jealous!
Let me know if you'd like to see some amusing video clips of us getting it well and truly stuck in the mud last year in our first attempt at off-roading.

Hello,
The 4.0 is pretty genuine, just remapped + NGK BP6ES + LR 8mm spark plugs wire loom.
Also Engine runs with Gaseous Sequential Injection and top oiler.
In fact there is not direct-fit Magnaflow cats kit for Defender 90, so I have used direct-fit catalytic converter Y-Pipe Conv. Asm. part# 23821 for Range Rover 90-93.
Magnaflow cats are responsible partly for the sound because they are less restriction than standard cats, also they are in stainless.

al mackenzie, yes share your video with us. The 50Th is the street car :lol: . To play in mud I have an TD5 :)

Thanx 4 the info Wotland. NGK BP6ES are different spark plugs, right? What is the advantage to be gained with them? My mate Sven's 50th already sports a set of Magnecor plug wires. Please enlighten us further, what does Gaseous Sequential Injection do, who makes it, where do we get it, and also what's a top oiler!? His 50th is now used as a street car but we had to get it properly dirty the once, Sven has since acquired a Matzker-modified double-Africa-veteran TD5 to play in the mud.
I've not posted video to YouTube or similar yet, might take me a couple more days 'til I get it sorted as I'll have to edit our off-road movie down to bite-size chunks, but if you help us make his 50th roar like yours I'll endeavour to entertain you with our novice mud-plugging :-)
Can you provide a photo or two of how "Y-Pipe Conv. Asm. part# 23821 for Range Rover 90-93" fits under the Landy? Was it a bolt-in fit or did it need tweaking? Many thanks in advance
PS Off-topic, my older P6 is now almost totally dismantled and has been delivered to a Classic Resto specialists where it awaits extensive welding and metal-replacement, the younger one (to serve as a parts and engine donor) gets started now and then in the lock-up to keep the cobwebs at bay, on twin SUs with BAK needles and a Kent 214 it still can't match your 4.0 litre for bark.

Hello,
The LPG SEQUENTIAL system is an electronically controlled gas feeding system that can be installed in all vehicles with sequential injection system. The system is a Multipoint sequential one and is controlled by an ecu that controls the gas injection sequence and the timing. The gas is injected through the rails of injectors directly into the suction pipes thus obtaining a particularly precise mix to optimise the combustion process. The gas injection timing is obtained by exploiting the petrol injection timing of the original ECU of the vehicle. I have added an Top oiler who has been designed by Marly to supply additionnal oil to valve and valve seat because there is not lubricant in LPG. Also this kit helps to reduce the combustion temperature. NGK spark plugs work really well with LPG.
For the Magnaflow I have used this reference, it is specific to NAS Range Rover :

Don't try to use the european version for Range Rover, it doesn't work on 50Th because front propshaft : http://www.car-sound.com/05europe.htm
The outlet flange of Y pipe is delivered to weld for an perfect adjustement with the cat-back exhaust.
