I'm lucky just got my licence a month ago red p-plates and I own a ba xr6 turbo Should move to wa ;-)

Hi all Well first off, yesterday I installed the Turbosmart dual port kompact 25mm bov, I couldn't believe how easy it was to install! Take the hose clamps off on the intercooler pipping and it sits Right underneath, it sounds great and a lot louder then the stock bosch unit, only thing is, I'm not to sure if I have to adjust and cut my air line hose cause it's doing a real sharp sort of a "U" bend from the air line to bov, and it's hard cause there both sitting equal height wise with both adapters facing up (which is why it's in a U shape). I Know it doesn't matter, but I know that blow off valve will breath a lot better with a modified hose. It's not leaking cause my turbo timers telling me I'm running the same 6psi stock boost Thanks guys any help would be Much appreciated

. Hi dave I just ordered the Turbosmart kompact dual port 25mm aswell, and am putting it In today Can you give me any heads up? I'm not really hands on with this kind of stuff, and also my cars runnig the standard 6psi stock boost, will I notice a noise change? Thanks heaps

Hi all is it possible to get the ba series tuned stock?

Cheers Steve R

Okay thanks velocity, my friend has one on his and his is a 05 ba mark2 auto xr6t (sh*t that was mouthfull) and his I noticed a big difference, but only thing is his has all the rest of goodies aswell (plazman cooler, Headers,31/2 turboback ect.) so I might be a lot different cause mines stock as rock besides a f6 intercooler and I might not see the same results. Thanks for your help

Hi guys new to this forum and thought I gotta get in here!! I really wanna purchase one for my auto 04 ba xr6 turbo are they worth the money as I'm bang for buck? Everyone seems to be laughing at me telling me to go with the f6 setup instead cause it's a lot cheaper but I prefer the ss induction growler overall. I'm 18 and new to my car so any help from you older blokes with experience will be much appreciated Thanks guys

Hi all, Now this is a fairly silly one for most of use but I'm new to the xr6t scene and new to my engine, so without laughing a little help would be great? I just want to know where I can find my stock bov in my 04 xr6 ts engine bay? I've looked everywhere, but probably not hard enough since I carent find the bugger. I know I should know where it is by now, but I just want to know cause my Turbosmart Kompact dual port is on it's way Thanks guys

Big help mate ordered one a few days ago thanks to research a few videos, and your reply to wrap it up!! I ordered the dual port 25mm compact and also a growler ss induction. Just put an f6 intercooler in. Thanks for your help

Thanks guys big help, by the way even though my cars stock, will it be loud enough to hear outside? Or will I need intercooler exhaust system and the rest of it to make it sound louder? Thanks guys

Hi all Looking at getting a bov for my stock xr6 t and just want to know which ones are best for my 04 ba xr6t, and which ones sound really neat. Sorry for those who don't see the point but it's my kind of personal taste haha Cheers guys

Hi all I own an 04 ba xr6 t which is stock as a rock, does anyone know if I put an aftermarket bov in say a Turbosmart one, will it sound heaps louder then the stock Bosch one? Or will I need other after market parts/ run higher psi to make it loud? My stock one flutters sounds neat inside but outside you carent hear a thing, but I wanna be able to hear it outside like a wrx/skyline. just wanting to know if an aftermarket bov will make a difference or will I need other things to make it more noticeable aswell Thanks guys any help would be great

Just a few more photos of her guys

Thankyou so much that's very helpful! To be honest I didn't know you could change and release the throttle at the same time to produce a flutter? Deffinelty going to try it! I brought mine with 117xxxkms and I've done 2000 so far. How much boost can the stock engine handle? Mines running the standard 6psi according to my turbo timer, is it possible to run it higher? Can the stock engine handle higher boost? And yes thanks on the feedback, and driving it through a brick wall is the last on my mind. I think because I brought it with my own money, I appreciate it a lot more then the other younger p-platers the get there money else how. I take into consideration that I'm lucky to own one and I always get told I have a too nice of a car for a first timer haha. Let's just say flogging it is the last of my plans I like driving it with pride and enjoying the ride :-)

I actually don't know about the bowser? What is it? And I use my trip to tell me, but sometimes I'm unsure cause the fuel range it gives me with how much kms I have left drops a few k and I've only literally got off my driveway!! I filled it up on standard unleaded a few days ago and so far I've done 173kms (according to my trip) and I've got 267kms left? Now youse tell me if this sounds normal haha. I know the ford turbo models are heavy on fuel, there not the best, but I think my bov is causing my fuel to drop aswell as my low-profiles? Is it true that having aftermarket chromes on low profiles are a cause your car chewing fuel? Just want to know thanks guys

Ohh thanks mate big help, yeah I just wanted to know, cause it flutters. Sounds neat, but I heard blocking them isn't good for the engine and car, it can cause backfire which reforces the air back into the engine. But because it's my daily, I noticed she's a lot heavy on fuel. I know as much as these cars are nice machines, I'm also aware that there not your average fuel bargins. But in saying that, mine uses a lot more then average, and I don't even drive in sports shift much little loan put my foot down as I'm only on my p-plates, so I might need some help there. I admit, I respect my car, and because I paid for it with my own money no loan, no finance, no "daddy's" money, you could say I'm fussy and am very proud to be able to own one of these espeacially it being my first car.

Hi all I'm new to the forums page, I'm 18, and I own a mercury silver xr6 turbo stock as a rock, it's got a capa flash tuner and an f6 typhoon intercooler. 4sp auto. I'm just wanting to know is the stock Bosch bov ment to flutter when I let my foot of in first and 2nd in sports shift? It flutters pretty loud, and I'm thinking the previouse guys have blocked it but unsure. And also I'm ordering a growler cold air intake for it. Is it possible to get my xr6 t tuned even though it's fairly stock? Or does it need to be tuned for the new intake anyway? Thanks guys big help.

Hahah yeah sorry fellas Yep that's right mate I get my licence next month, and it's my first car I call it a her, cause I love it more then a women. She's always down for a floggin, and screames more. What's even more wonderful is she doesn't back chat. Thanks guys for checking my ride Yeah mate I'm only 18, always wanted one, finally was able to get one, paid cash, no loan, no finance, no daddy's money Btw I just want to know if my stock Bosch bov, is ment to flutter when I let my foot off the gas in first and 2nd in sports shift. It sounds neat, but I'm not too sure if it's good for my car, my fuel is chewing and thought this could be the case. Plus I heard it can cause detonation, and f*** the turbo in the long run. So just want to know. Thanks guys

Hi guys New to the forums page, just thought id upload a few photos of my xr6 t it's a 4sp auto ba model, got a turbo timer, capa flash tune, and a f6 typhoon front mount, besides that she's stock as a rock. I'm only 18 and she's my first car as I get my licence in a month, so just want some feedback on some things I could work on, and brands. I want a a turbo smart Bov, Growler intake, lower her on some ssLs, while putting some fpv dark agents on her feet. Also want some HID lights, and taking her spoiler off. She's done 110xxxkms, and just picked her up last week, so just thought if show her off. Cheers guys
