JE Engineering Defender 90 XS
Discussion
Just a few picks of my pride and joy........a little bit different to most of the stuff on here......but hey variety is good!
Whats it's got:
1. Stage 2 re-map
2. Large Intercooler
3. Intercooler and turbo pipes in stainless and sylocone
4. EGR By-pass
5. 2.5 straight through/de-cat exhaust sounds awesome
6. Raised boost from 15 to 20 psi and adjusted valve
7. GKN overdrive
8. 285/65 R18 Hankook Ventus with 18" Land rover alloys
9. Very serious stereo (for a Defender) but all nicely built in.
10. Heated seats and leather etc
11. All in all about 190 to 200 bhp with a shed load of torque. Great fun!
12. JE suspension kit in teh garage....stiffer anti-roll bars, koni shocks, ever so sloightly lower springs and new rubbers all round then the old girl is complete.
And now for some piccies.......
And the stereo
2 more Morels to go in here
Interior
Overdive
Under the bonnet (not that exciting)
ITG Air filter
EGR By pass
Exhaust
Box to increase boost (not a plug in re-map taht has been applied to teh ecu itself but this increase boost)
Wheels
Horn!!!!
And a picture of my other one that gets muddier than this one

Looks nice and im sure it shifts quite nicely with circa 200 bhp. But its too clean, take it off road, surely thats what land rovers are all about and tbh its not as if they are that nice to drive on the road. Come on take it off roading its great fun and then come back with some pictures of it in action!
It's a ex-military 110 I rebuilt a couple of years ago. Great wagon!
Very nice motor (the modded 90), but it's way too clean!

It goes off road most weeks.........I'm just a glutton for punishment and clean to an inch of it's life after every outing.

Thank god for that 
Theres too many new ones now that never leave the road.
The 110 has a very overpowered 2.25 Diesel producing about 60bhp!!!!!! Great wagon though!

Cool! I've always preferred the proportions of the 110 - to my eyes the 90 is just too short! What engine's in the 110?Bish said:

I fail to see any evidence of off roading there? Seee below for pic.
Doesn't stop it being a lovely motor though, whether muddy or not. I personally would've spent money on improving the off road ability rather than speed and performance, but a quick Defender is such a rare thing it must be nice to do something different!
