Shockwave-T

I noticed mine was making some pretty nice sounding spool up sounds, but after taking it in for the 15K service, they tightened the intake manifold bolts and it stopped. So no more spooling sounds, but the flutter is still there and pretty audible. My car's a stock 6spd manual.

Why would they be quoting rear wheel power and not flywheel power? Sounds a bit sus to me.... XR6NA, Expensive Daewoo have a twin turbo SV6 in the pipeline... or so I have heard.

I know for a fact that the police, some insurance companies, and even the EPA read car forums, and even take pictures/video at car shows and driving events. Be careful - if you have any mods which may be questionable hide your number plates.

Welcome to the forum, and congrats on the car. A nice choice indeed. If you think you have become a boost junkie driving a XRT on ~6psi, try driving a car with a big, laggy turbo

Looks great!! I love those wheels too!

I was there that night and was pretty amazed by the F6. It looked/sounded standard, but I always thought it had a bit more. Knowing it was stock, I'm pretty impressed The track was slippery and it was a warm night, so there may possibly be a high 12 in it for him. Any idea what his 60 foot times were?

Seems to me like a comparo between V8s and turbo 4s. Maybe the question should be "Why is there no GT or XR8"?

sounds interesting. have you had before and after dyno runs?

What does the Typhoon software do compared with the XR6T setting?

Telstra cars have the same ECU as every other T. Mine is a manual and I've had it at 5000RPM in neutral (clutch engaged - experimenting with launch RPMs at the drags)

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how to fix the alignment on my headlights? I couldn't find any screws that I would normally find on most other cars. It's a BA XR6T. Also, can you please post some pics of stock engine bays? I am curious to see mainly the area behind the RHS headlight - the battery and power steering bottle in particular, as well as the air con unit which is at the back of the LHS. Reason being, my car had a run in with a roo a while back and I just got the car back from the beater's and the engine bay just doesn't look right. Thanks.

That would of made the great man turn over in his grave <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I suppose it would......if he was in a grave to begin with <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I thought he was taking abour Cliff Burton. I'm sure he rolls over every time they playany of their newer crap.

I've routinely destroyed WRX's with a/m exhausts, 1 even had an FMIC. Mind you raced on a roll which happily removes the AWD advantage <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Doesn't mean anything. I have seen heavily modded WRXs get chomped by stock Evos.

I saw Pantera back in 94 - awesome! Most memorable recently for me though was Soulfly/Hatebreed back in 02 (03 maybe?). That was pretty wild. I was at Korn/Static X/Fear Factory last year - the was pretty good too, although I went mainly to see Fear Factory and they were the opening act, so it wasn't as good as it could be. Korn were pretty good but Static X stole the show, IMO. I wouldn't mind seeing Korn again but their most recent music sucks so I'm hoping they play their older stuff more than their new garbage. Also, Static X are returning with Ill Nino end Feb/start March. Sorry for the ramblings, hardly anyone I know likes this stuff - not even my best mates. I have to drag my missus along to these events

I'm a massive Hatebreed fan and April 29 is my birthday - so you know where I'll be
