The Y62 V8 Patrol is a powerful, naturally aspirated Petrol powered SUV with much potential for performance and upgrades to assist with drivability and economy. Here are three of the best upgrades you can make to improve your Nissan Patrol Y62 Performance:
#1 -ECU Remap:
Upgrading the ECU tuning (Engine Control Unit) is one of the most effective ways to increase the horsepower and torque of your Y62 V8 Patrol. A professional ECU Remap by Performance Tuning Brisbane can optimise the engine’s air-fuel ratio, ignition timing, and other parameters to provide more power and better throttle response, often along with improved fuel economy. This upgrade is best done in our racing-level tuning facility here between Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast at Performance Tuning Brisbane. Our professional ECU Remap includes dyno testing, backup of the original ECU file, and logging of all parameters to ensure optimal performance and powertain safety.
#2 Exhaust System Upgrade:
Replacing the stock exhaust system of your Nissan Patrol Y62 with a performance exhaust improves the flow of exhaust gases from the engine, which can increase horsepower, torque and economy.
A Nissan Patrol Y62 performance exhaust system from Performance Tuning Brisbane can also improve the sound of your Y62 V8 Patrol, giving it a more aggressive and sporty tone. Here at Performance Tuning Brisbane, we offer a cat-back system which is cost friendly, along with a complete system including extractors for optimal results. Our full system is also emissions compliant, meaning we do not need to disable the Catalytic Converter or Oxygen Sensor Closed-Loop function, making it more environmentally friendly than most other systems in the marketplace and retaining a higher degree of engine safety. See the sound of our full exhuast system with extractors and muffer here.

#3 – Cold Air Intake:
Installing a cold air intake system can improve the engine’s airflow, increasing horsepower, torque and economy. Cold air intakes replace the stock air filter and intake tubing with larger, smoother tubing and a high-performance air filter, which can reduce restriction and improve airflow. This upgrade is relatively easy to install and can provide noticeable performance gains.

Always Engage Professionals…
These upgrades can be done individually or together for even more significant performance gains. It’s important to note that some upgrades may affect your vehicle’s warranty, and emissions, so it’s best to consult with the professionals at Performance Tuning Brisbane before making any modifications.
