HIGH HP YD25 NAVARA
Not many people are aware of the YD25's strength and tuning capabilities. Despite being the smallest capacity of the 4-cylinder diesels the D40 YD25s came with the biggest factory fuel pump and injectors capable of 340hp. This makes it very easy to make power gains, with an upgraded turbo, intercooler, exhaust, and a tune you can easily get 250hp reliably. Stock internals are very strong we have tested the stock pistons, rods, and crank to over 400hp. Listed below are some builds that showcase the YD25's strength.
