car is running nice now, turns out the NGK plugs I put in were dodgy. Put my old plugs back in and its running beautifully

since I got the car I have yeah but not in a little while

also, could it possible be a computer issue not liking new turbo or something wrong in the turbo install?

if I put some coils in to test they would have to be out of an xr6t yeah? Ones from just an xt model would be different? what is the stock actuator part number how can I tell if its stock

actuator is new came with the rebuilt turbo I havnt changed coils since I had car so I assume they are 120k old. Wasnt having any trouble until done this turbo, plug and oil change

hey guys sorry I should have mentioned more about car. Dont pay attention to sig, my car is completely stock again. I did oil changed with Nulon 10-40 I think it was. The car idles beautifully, it runs fine on low boost u can hear turbo spool up, car picks up fine and slows down to a nice idle again, its only when u plant it and it kicks up to high revs

Hey guys Recently I put a GCG rebuilt turbo in after mine had shat itself due to fords terrible oil filters. Since the change I took it for a drive to find that under heavy acceleration and pick up it starts massively backfiring and spluttering losing all power. While car was off road doing turbo, I bought a set of NGK plugs and put them in. They were already gapped properly and I was careful not to bump the ends at all so ive eliminated plugs as the problem considering there brand new and gapped properly. Car is completely stock. On idle and being revved all sounds good and right, just under heavy boost and power it happens. Pretty daunting sound, almost like a car hitting the rev limiter. The coil packs seemed all fine and in good condition when I changed plugs and didnt have any problems before turbo stuffed up. Could the cat have sh*t itself in the changeover, or cat not lined up with dump pipe properly? Any suggestions muchly appreciated cheers

ah ok so its the oil filter line that would be screwed? Any approx costs on a 2nd hand turbo, turbo rebuild or any info on these $700 fake gt35/40s?

ok does anybody know the rough price for a turbo rebuild? plus if its starved of oil there is a blocked oil line somewhere, how to fix it?

hey mate cheers whats your name and number and ill give u a call

any places sell them cheap these days? 2nd hand an ok option as funds r limited at moment... heard it could be a blown bearing? How much approx to get them rebuilt these days

Hey guys sorry I dont know a great deal about the workings of a turbo or the ways to fix things. Few days ago I started the car up and heard anpleasing sound coming from engine. I worked it out that it was coming from the turbo, a very metal sound. After taking pipes off I found that the shaft in the turbo has no in and out play, but it has a fair amount of movement up and down and that there is a lot of scratches on the inside from spinning. Some of the fins seem to have worn a way a little bit too. What is the decision on this, do I have to replace the whole turbo, or can I replace the shaft or what? Any help is very much appreciated as I want to try and get car back on the road in a few weeks suppose to be driving to qld also what do I need to do to find any shavings, metal that may have come off the turbo and is in the engine somewhere, anything else I need to replace so this doesnt cause anymore damage? cheers guys

Hey guys Just sittin at home watchin footy and on pc so I thought id post Its the Doncaster Mile tomorrow and curious what peoples tips are, who you going for in the big one? Dont hold me responsible but I grabbed $17 fixed odds on Brilliant Light today which I think is big money for the horse he is. Anyway just thought id find peoples thoughts and good luck

other cars with pretty much same box run more power because the obviously dont produce the torque these high powered falcons put out, its not the power that kills them its the torque

it says u can modify them for a manual

if your running normal boost but have it gapped to 0.83 from when u were running 10psi, will that affect the running of the car at all Ben?

where does the usb get the power from does it plug into the wires in your power source as well? Do they charge ipods?

mate sorry but nobody will buy a t5 off u that has been in a car with 400rwkw

ah sorry to hear that man ive been to a few accidents to shut down the roads, never a good thing to see dont usually forget it

420rwkw and your t5 didnt go bang first day???

hey guys nice simple one, anybody know any places in newcastle or sydney that do full manual conversion kits for the turbo? any places will be helpful thanks guys cheers

turns out they have a different spline size.. pretty sure they are made of different material as well so answer is yes they are different. 4ced u could be right too im unsure about na

Hey guys nice quick question apparently the t5 out of a bf NA xr6 is the same as the t5 out of the ba xr6 turbo. Question is, manual tailshaft out of a manual NA xr6 alright to put in manual xr6 turbo cheers
