Hey guys. Thought I'd start a little thread about the engine/ tuning limitations these SC/5l can handle. So basic tune (with air filter) most people see around 360-380rwkw? Pulley upgrade and exhaust.. what power are we seeing then? Up to what point do we need to change the injectors and fuel pump? (rwkw wise) Any info will be appreciated! Cheers boys

Hey Lads I'm looking at doing a Centre/ Rear muffler removal to unleash a little bit of noise! So. First, Centre muffler.. What would you boys suggest to replace this with? High-flow pipe? Hotdog? etc... thoughts and opinions? Secondly, Rear muffler.. I'll be running a straight pipe here for that nice deep noise/ back crackle we all love! Please feel free to add anything you want to say, or offer any advice! The car goes in next week wednesday for the centre/ rear. And in 4 weeks for a tune. Cheers

I suppose a topic with this title may attract some defensive comments from members but I am not looking to create an argument - just trying to make sense of an observation I have made recently. I have an F6E and recently drove a GT-P and GT-E. With 335kw, I was expecting the GTs to be very noticeably quicker than the 6, yet in every way, at every rpm, the GTs felt like I had left the hand brake on by comparison. Why ?? They are specced at having more torque and on paper, a better torque curve as well. So what's going on here. Now the GTs were very quick, but the 6 is like lightning. At 5,500 rpm, the GT was starting to pull like the 6, but the 6 pulls that hard all the way from 2,500 to 6,000. Traction was not an influencing factor. All were on pulp. Temp and air pressure comparable. WTF? Did FPV deliberatley advertise the F6 specs below real world performance so their flagship v8 looks good? Admittedly, you don't get a nice noise from the rear of the 6 - where the v8 sounds incredible. But with that sort of noise you expect performance to match. Has anyone else made a fair comparison of the two factory-stock cars? Should I get my 6E dyno'ed? I suppose it is possible that a previous owner tuned it but my 6E seems to go like other F6s I have driven. TJS

Moderators please move this to the correct section. I have taken the time to create a DIY for a K&N replacement on the 5.0s/c Engine, which is basic but if I help one person out by doing this, then I have achieved what I am aiming for. ~Tools For the Job: ~K&N filter (obviously) ~8mm socket & ratchet or driver. ~Star screw driver (will re-check size!) ~Time (15-20 Mins)
