E70 3.0d/3.0sd Drivetrain differences

[TOMMO]

Hi eKelly,

Thank you for your comprehensive mail and i found your points very helpfull. Interesting comparisons regarding the torque figures at various points in the rev range. Don't get me wrong the 3.0d is still smooth and during every day use the cars power is more than ample. I find that the car could do with more umph in the later gears when i stretch it's legs. I was reluctant to remap for the obvious warranty issues and also the cost. I only plan to keep the car for another 12 months or so when i will almost certainly go the way of sd. I will see what i can discover regarding the plug and play boxes on the other forums and go with the feed back consensus. Cheers again for your input. Catch you around.

best regards
