I have a TB45 TI and it’s my 3rd one I have owned, I was getting terrible fuel economy from the two that where gas and petrol. I now own one that is straight fuel and I get very good economy, 15-18L per 100klm is my combo and less on a highway run if stay around 100kph, any higher and then it starts drinking a little more fuel. As for your engine bay heat, nothing you can do mate, TB45’s are notoriously hot running engine, I have cracked 3 sets of collector pipes due to heat. As for your dash surround, get a black one second hand and have it hydro dipped the same as the wood grain. It’s the material them make the wood grain affect surround out of that gets brittle very quickly. Yes they sit lower on the right due to spare tyre and fuel tank plus driver, only fox is a centre mount spare and removing the sub tank. Move you cooler and oil cooler away from the rad this will give you condenser a better chance of getting cool air, or throw a small fan on it… But in my opinion the mighty TB45 is the best engine to have..

I also have a turbo TB45 Patrol, to reduce engine bay temps I've fitted a turbo beanie and wrapped the dump pipe, made a huge difference

Springs should be marked left and right, make sure you install them correctly to counter the right hand sag.

Check your rear coil tower tops if they're bent up.

I’ve got a turbocharged tb45 as well I’ve put a reverse cowl scoop on it and it’s made a huge difference in engine bay temperatures

Get a standard black surround from a wreck. The wood grain ones go brittle over time which is why yours is falling apart so unless you find one brand new, its not worth getting another wood grain surround. I have put a black surround in mine and it has all the switch sockets identical to a Ti.

The aircon doesnt work as good when your stationary because i noticed you removed the fan which usually sits on the condenser at the front between the intercooler and condenser. When i put a front mount on i just removed the factory fan and got a thinner more efficient fan

springs are rated left and right side to fix the lean on the drivers side, should be labelled on your springs

Hey mate, from factory they run a harder coil on the right side front and rear so I'd definitely recommend harder on the right than left

With the scoop idea it will make it worse with the temp it creates a negative pressure unless u have a top mount but yeah go reverse cowl or even vf ss bonnet air vents also you should fill in the gaps in between the inter cooler air con and rad will help with everything because with the gaps on the sides it lets a lot of air out so fill the gaps with some d shape sticky foam or something from Bunnings

Bro... 35 to 40per l and more?? Im lucky to get over 25 when offroading. I get 18 on the highway towing a 2t camper. I wouldve thought the turbo would give more power with equal economy.

That fuel economy is totally redicules it's just stupidity, no long range tank is good enough. you need to be towing a 1000lt tanker full of fuel just too go camping...it's certainly not a tourer...🤣
