morning all, happy Monday ⛄

Thanks for coming back to let us know how it went.
-
definitely an improvement
-
because there's a reason why the N/A ones are used in N/A applications and the Turbo variants are used in Turbo applications, meaning the N/A one isn't rated for as high torque as the Turbo variant... plus on top of that I've heard of plenty of OEM turbo ZF6's having slip once tuned to 350rwkW+ so I'd expect that the average N/A one wouldn't handle 300kW long-term.
-
still wouldn't trust a N/A one to do the job long-term...
-
not really... a turbo will probably cook a non-turbo box.

morning all, happy Saturday ☃️

ahh, that sucks man...
-
Fair enough, definitely a good idea to let it all happen in good time, get the best result and all that.
-
if @Puffwagon can find you his $700 link, he should be able to backtrack on his "dreaming" statement, based on evidence... but of course, you could always find somebody else who's willing to sell it for a reasonable price.
-
might even turn a tyre now what's the hold up of the shed?
-
who'd bother paying to "rebuild" it to OEM level, they'd always be upgrading in the process... so you'd have a better than OEM one cheaper than a "built" box, probably, as they have to disassemble and re-assemble a normal "built" one
-
but then you'd have a "built" trans, not a OEM one,
-
not even scrap-metal value? surely milkshaked ones can be rebuilt with new clutches etc?
-
of course it's the same ZF6 as any other turbo-6 variant of a ZF6, but wow, surprised they're so cheap... I would assume one that cheap would have been milkshaked haha
-
a ZF6 from an F6 should be $1k... didn't realise the price had dropped that far... admittedly I haven't been keeping an eye on the cost of them, but they used to be $5k+.

morning all, happy Friday ❄️

you make it sound so simple...

morning all, happy Thursday ⚡

paying for it to be done would likely be prohibitively expensive... have a read of this thread and it'll give you an idea on how tricky it can be to move to a ZF platform: https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/30284-ba-to-be-bfed/
