I was chatting to a guy to day and he says that the Land rover boys have a variable vein turbo kit....2.5 l engine. ....no ecu. Ive asked him for a link so I will share it with as soon as I get it.

Would like to see that mate, think a VNT turbo on a D24T would really help that low end acceleration!
