Don't quote me on this but I'm sure he said it was getting the 8's gearbox.

But I don't know whether you could get that much torque increase with just some intake mods and only that smaller boost increase. Could be true though.

With the F6 using the standard injectors it wouldn't be able to run more than about 8psi. Maybe peter could explain how they could get the extra 100nm torque with only 3okw extra.Geea.

Guest Ford BOSS Guests Posted 07/04/04 05:34 AM Share Posted 07/04/04 05:34 AM I think you'll find that the F6's power is LIMITED to 270kW, as stated somewhere (can't remember) from FPV. So unleash its power outlet, and Bob's your uncle. Say for the all-new Falcon, they just have to release the power a bit more, and you've got a faster car. No need to do much work......

Venom XR6 Member 1,460 Member For: 22y 18d Location: Geelong Victoria Posted 07/04/04 09:05 AM Share Posted 07/04/04 09:05 AM The Typhoon also has independent control over both camshafts, wheras the the XR6T can only alter the cam timing of both camshafts together. that's probably a big reason why the F6 has more low down torque. The first F6 motors made were manual only. This must prove the theory that the 6 speed auto won't be ready until later next year.
