  1. E85? If so I think the motor will live. Seeing that it's at 19psi I'm guessing its on 98. Good luck. Unless you dont use that torque... ever.... the gearbox is in a dead man walking situation.
  2. I'd be looking at spark plugs & coils first. Sounds like it is missing under load.
  3. Whatever killed the old engine that was stronger and with a lower compression ratio will kill this one even quicker. Take it to RDP or profile autosports, tell them what you've done and that you just want to make it live so they can tune it accordingly.
  4. Fg xr6t only has the smaller turbo. F6 is the same.
  5. Trutrac?
  6. Brand new car + No number plates + towed = dealer thrashing the hell out of someone's new car
  7. What you're thinking sounds right unfortunately.
  8. I had a dealer quote me the actual rrp 55k. Shop around friends.
  9. Throttle positon sensor. Common issue. Causes rough idle and lack of power. Pull the throttle body off and clean it. Might help your issue if not fix it and it'll only cost a can of carby cleaner.
  10. Probably, but it will be the most powerful falcon 6 ever. So that's something.
  11. I think the standard xr height is the low king spring. "Standard" form their perspective is XT falcon which are a bit taller I believe. Probably best to just call them and ask.
  12. Utes don't have diff bushes. Stripes is the local nay sayer. Nothing wrong with that but I garrentee you'll find a bloke on a Expensive Daewoo site saying how much better the ford product is. There's bad experiences from customers of any company.
  13. 1800kg car @ 127 vs pedestrian...... it's a public road. There's no run off. Nobody is expecting a car to be coming up behind them or at them 50 kays over the limit. A little over, a squirt here and there up to around the speed limit, sure. But 47 over then act like your a victim? Lmfao. If you can't control yourself until you get it to the track to cut loose, sell it. At worst it'll save you money on fines.
  14. Rack bolts loosen over time. A bit of high temp grease under the washers helps. Also, if you do some searching, I'm pretty sure ford came out with some sort of replacement washer/spacer kit to fix it.
  15. It's very common unfortunately. My fg does it and there's a number of threads on the forums too. I think there's a firmware update that helps it. Also I think it can be "tuned" out via zf tuning.I believe it's a issue in the tcm.
  16. A screamer pipe doesn't join back up with the exhaust. They sound amazing but are 100% illegal.
  17. The xr in the video uses a parallel set-up and the B4 uses a sequential set-up............
  18. More response from a big single? More effecient? Can't be bothered typing it all out on a phone but I'd suggest you look at a pro/con list on twin turbos. Half your reasoning is ass backwards.
  19. Why did Nissan twin turbo the rb26.....
  20. The wastegate is not large enough to by pass enough gas. The moment you try to push more than factory boost the wategate port is no longer sufficient. This is why pretty much everyone suggests the "flapper" mod to be done almost immediately.
  21. That's what I'd be doing. Straight to trutrac?
  22. 4 speed auto ba xr6 turbo is 3.45. Six speed manual is 3.73.
  23. Yes, the booster fails and causes the brakes to drag slightly. If this is happening, the brakes will be blazing hot after a drive. I had this happen to mine and a new booster sorted it.
  24. Get someone to crank it over while you've got the multimeter on the battery. If it's showing good charge but drops below 9 volts at start up it's starting to die. Seeing below 9 volt, even momentarily, can cause all types weird electrical problems on modern cars.
  25. At least he didn't mention pulling off ugly stockers.......
