Yeah I try to mix it up with hills maps too, but don't know as many roads down towards the southern areas only up my way which can be too far for those in rocko etc. As I said if anyone does have an idea throw it out there :-)

Facebook group is in the cruise ideas thread I think, but it's called "WA FordXR6Turbo forum crises", easy to find

Steve, I use to run with the psb crew when I use to have my cbr. they had some wicked cruises through the back roads of mundairing all the way south. something like a 200km run and it allowed us to stretch the legs a bit and clear the cob webs a tad. city runs are a tad risky as well especially with the traffic on the roads and multinovas. I haven't been on many cruises due to family commitments.

a wife that works Friday night shifts is hard especially when I look after the kids on Saturdays, doesn't leave much time for cruises.

boganspeed, getting the car tuned again? what about the warranty?

hope all goes well.

Yeah turns out the tune I got isn't that good so I took it to XFT to get it done properly.

Unfortunately I lose the warranty I paid extra for but I'm reasonably confident the engine and trans are going to hold up so I'll just do it.

And since I'm killing my warranty anyway, I may as well get some other bits added on like a Nizpro cooler, injectors and waste gate mod.

I did have to make a hasty exit from there yesterday though as my wallet was starting to whimper when we started talking about GTX turbos and bigger exhausts.

Eventually, I want to see 500hp at the tyres and it still be my daily driver.

Picked up two BA 17" rims from Stroller the other day, have some Nitto NT05R's on the way from Taleb Tyres.

My missus is very excited about the possibility of her shoving the ute into the 12's.

Just hope my mum doesnt get wind of it or she'll want another crack too!

Yeah, it would be a bitter sweet moment.

Or I can just tell her to eff off and that she's not allowed to drive it any more.

There seem to be a few running turbo side intakes with no tune.

If your car is already tuned and you make any drastic changes to intake flow etc, I would think it would be best to get it checked on the dyno at least.

BTW, wtf are "intercom let pipes"??

Well I have been emailing Rob and got pricing on getting some mods done, but I need to find the quid first.

There is a "Venom 5" high flow cat" group buy on the other forum and I bit the bullet and ordered it.

Now to see when I can possibly get some upgrades done. I am chassin 300+.........
