GSL/Intense Stage 2 Gated Turbo – LandCruiser VDJ76/78/79 1VD-FTV

The GSL/Intense Stage 2 Gated Turbo is engineered for serious power, rapid response and dependable real-world performance from the Toyota LandCruiser 70 Series 4.5L 1VD-FTV.

This factory-location upgrade replaces the original VNT turbocharger with a performance gated-turbo system. Upgraded internal components and increased airflow capacity support higher power levels while delivering strong torque, fast spool and consistent performance throughout the rev range.

GSL reports full boost by approximately 1,750 rpm, with useful boost available earlier and strong transient response between gear changes.

Required Supporting Components

GSL specifies the following supporting upgrades to achieve the intended performance:

• Upgraded injector nozzles

• Front-mount intercooler

• Upgraded intake pipe

• High-flow panel or pod-style airbox

• GSL Stage 2 gated-turbo dump pipe

Installation and Tuning

Professional installation and custom dyno tuning are required. The factory VNT control strategy, boost control, fuelling, airflow calibration and engine-protection settings must be configured for the gated-turbo conversion.

Fullsoot 4x4 will also assess the clutch, gearbox and driveline to ensure they are suitable for the intended torque output.

The engine oil and filter must be replaced during installation. The turbo oil supply and drain, intake system, intercooler, exhaust system and crankcase ventilation system must be inspected for restrictions, contamination or leaks.
