That's a relief...it actually started gripping a little better on the way home, so I'm sure you're right how long after til new flush? Cause they did a full flush apparently...but I will re-do and hopefully be even better..And I just went with their stupid recommendation for fluid (so unknown but prob cheap stuff)...even though I knew I should have gone something decent...but apparently according to them "all dot 4 fluid is basically the same" lol At least when I do another flush I'm only wasting cheaper stuff (more than likely anyways). I was thinking I should just stick to nulon...if their oil is good...hopefully their other products are too? Or should I just go super stuff? Like the castrol one or penrite or something? What did you use? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21890-wa-spotted-chit-chat-thread/page/2958/#findComment-1490444 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know you made over 300, I would have thought they need to mod the turbo at that level. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21890-wa-spotted-chit-chat-thread/page/2958/#findComment-1490456 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking for the intercooler in the front of the car but thought you were NA as yours must be black. Also noticed the 50th wheels that I like so much...didn't pay attention to the driver though hahahaWas hoping to see how well the sunburst FG would keep with me around the roundabout but I think you turned off Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21890-wa-spotted-chit-chat-thread/page/2958/#findComment-1490609 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong. I wanted to keep up, but the daughter was in the car as well. So was my best mate. Can't risk their lives like that.Didn't you see the lights flashing a few times you noggin. What, did you think I was a cop??The intercooler is black. there is a reason for it. it is called a SLEEPER. Yes I turned off as I took a side road to avoid the lights.I would have turned left at the lights and you turned right.Anyways, a belated HELLO!!!
