VM Motori 2.8L diesel is a proven engine. From what I understand this motor is the same as those used in London Cabs. I have a JK Unltd diesel with auto trans that has done 40,000ks without skipping a beat. With 460Nm of torque its almost unstoppable, just a real shame they havn't released a diesel Rubi. Only thing I would bother modding in the engine bay would be a set of silicone turbo pipes.
