Unichip has unveiled a new performance package for the Land Rover Discovery 2 / Defender TD5.
Dubbed the Sport Conversion, the package consists of an Owen Developments Garrett turbocharger and a Unichip ‘U-Connect' ECU. These modifications enable the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine to produce 131 kW and 378 Nm of torque - an increase of 37 kW and 85 Nm.
According to the company, over 271 Nm of torque is available between 1700-4200 rpm which makes it "perfect for towing or off road use." More importantly, extensive testing has found the conversion actually improves fuel economy thanks to "extra mechanical and electronic efficiencies realized by the Unichip Europe conversion."
The package will be available for all Discovery Series 2 TD5s (produced between 1998 and 2005) and manual-equipped Defender TD5s.
