brilliant video, so clearly explained. I'm at the point of buying the actual m57 engine - so far i understand i need to buy the m57 engine including ecu & wiring harness in 3 parts (engine loom, injector loom, and ecu loom). Ive also figured out I will need to keep a few sensors such as MAF, lambda, boost temp, EGT as well as swirl flap and EGR vacuum solenoids. Lastly i will need the accelerator pedal and its wiring. I intend to use a zf8hp with a turbolamik controller. Could you kindly advice if there is anything i have left out for the engine to run standalone on a test bench? would appreciate your advice....many thanks

I know my idle speed it roughly 750rpm. When connecting the gauge for the first time, my idle showed as 3000rpm. There is a small knob on the back, just turn it and the rpm will drop/raise as you turn in. I turned mine until it showed 750rpm at idle. It’s now accurate right up to 4750rpm. 👍🏽

I have a friend who just bought a td5. I jumped in it the other day to feel how heavy his clutch was. I pushed it down and it hit the floor, I was expecting it to feel so much heavier as I’m used to driving my one. So my point is, if you go manual, you will need a heavy duty clutch and a heavy duty left knee to go with it 😂 My friend jumped in mine to see what my clutch was like, he jumped out and said he thinks his hip popped (he’s an older gentleman) 😬 Mine is manual and using the original Land Rover transmission so I didn’t use any of the transmission controller, just the original ecu 👍🏽

@@KeepitBigBore Yher nice I should of picked up on that in the video, I been watching that many M57 swap videos 24/7 I caint remember half of them. Lol Cheers heps for your help. Do you have any pics of the plugs or sketches of how all the wiering is pinned out into the connectors? I'm a bit sick on how to wire this thing.

No worries mate 😬 If you purchase one of the stand-alone kits then you won’t have to worry about pin outs, wires etc. She’ll just plug and play. I have no diagrams for the wires and all of them are black so a picture might not be any help but trust me, she all clicks together 👍🏽
