  2. I ment if I was going to look at buying a car and didnt want to take the sellers word for it.
  3. is there anyway to know if someone has actually repalaced any engine internals ie conrods or valve springs? obviously a reciept is good but if u have to take someones word for it is there anyway to know if they telling the truth?
  4. for $70 more you could get the tube and fin one which rated at 800hp and is better for street use . though that's open for discussion
  5. looking at all my options trying to find cheapest one. wanting over 300rwkw but NO risk of bottom end. currently looking at ba or ba mk2. ba's are 15-17k ba mk2 are currently 22-24k so either fully built engine,buy a typhoon, buy a BF after 06/06, just add typhoon bottom end,rebuilt stock motor motor,have 300rwkw tune but daily tune of 250rwkw. whats my options? and approx how much do they cost?
  6. The rapid and process surge tank are like $1000 but you can buy a surge tank for like $200 and pump for $200 so wouldnt it be cheaper to just get the correct fittings and make a setup yourself for prob $500 all up? is it hard?
  7. I know your going to say "it will cost alot" but if the rods were replaced with the typhoon rods would motor be sweet?
  8. read the after you get over 300rwkw in the BA's your risking your bottom end. if the valve springs and a harmonic balancer were upgraded would I be still risking bottom end? IF so what parts are likely to go and at how much rwkw?
  9. so out of GSS 340, GSS 341 and the GSS 294 which intake pump is best considering that I dont get a surge tank
  10. rapid surge tank is 3L how many Litres is the process west one. only problem is surge tank setup is like $1000 where intank pump is like $200. for the money conscience ppl its alot of money difference
  11. so for xr6-t looking for just over 300rwkw a 82 degree thermosat is recommended?
  12. as far as I can see the GSS 340, GSS 341 and the GSS 294 are the most common choices. apprently the GSS 342 has alot of fiddling to put it in. just wondering whats best if I dont plan to get a surge tank setup
  13. is it better to replace the intank pump or add a external pump to help the stock intank pump? not talking about a surge tank setup just adding a external pump. this is for a sedan.
  14. looking for bit over 300rwkw looking for best intank fuel pump without having to get a surge tank setup as they are quite expensive. I know its alot better for sedans but im not made of money.
  15. since 5 speed ba's are so cheap thinking ill just buy a 5 speed then upgrade to 6 speed gearbox. just wondering what differences there is bewteen the ba's and ba mk2's?
  16. I wanna look at 310-320rwkw wondering how much psi are ppl are running out there to achieve over 300rwkw?
  17. so it depends from car to car whether you need to upgrade it and also on what is done when its tuned. so for someone wanting to make bit over 300kw a 10psi actuator would be a good precaution since its cheap to do? who sells a 10psi actuator and approx how much is it?
  18. whats RRP on one of these cats? is it the same length as the original cat so u can just cut old cat out and replace with this one?
  19. is there anyway to know a good tuner from a bad tuner? besides obviously other ppls experiences?? ie one tuner has to run 12psi where another has to run 16psi to get same result??
  20. looking at what options there is for dump cat and y pipe. I know smb does one for $1600 and x force does one but unsure what there price is. does anyone else do one or does anyone know price of x forces one?
  21. smb exhausts. i know there is alot of ppl interested in a group buy for cats atm but i have been talking to the guys at smb exhausts and they are interested in doing a group buy for any one of there exhaust. i had there system on my astra turbo and my mechanic who owns a muffler shop was shocked at the quality of the exhausts. ill be looking at getting the stealth system [url="http://www.smb.net.au/fullexhaustsystems-fordbav8TURBO.htm"]http://www.smb.net.au/fullexhaustsystems-fordbav8TURBO.htm[/url]
  22. how much interest has to be show b4 you can do a group buy on an item? coz going through the forums i can see fair few ppl are interested in harmonic balancer (underdrive) but just they havent shown interest in the group buy section
  23. [quote]I thought they were around $200 from Ebay anyways? (contact NOS XR..?)[/quote] na they are $270-$300 delivered on ebay so saving $40-$70
  24. wondering what the size of standard dump, cat and exhaust on xr6t?
  25. call it a harmonic balancer. if they have half a brain they will know what that is
