Billsta Member 355 Member For: 18y 9m 26d Location: Rolling on my 20's Posted 05/07/06 08:00 AM Share Posted 05/07/06 08:00 AM Hi Guys,Firstly would like to congratulate you on a great website with great info.I have a BF F6 six speed auto in Rapid in Sydney.I've seen the light and come over from the dark side.From SS's to Senator's and now a Typhoon, would never have thought...It's come out of the 3K service and I would like to do some mods though I only have approx 2K to spend.I'm interested in the the power though sound is more an emphasis coming out of a V8.I was thinking EDIT, K & N filter and BOV...What are your thoughts?I was thinking of speaking to Autotech and Croydon Motorsport, would you recommend I speak to any other Sydney tuners?I know 2K is not much but what type of power could I expect?Should I be considering high flow injectors and maybe a bigger budget?Billsta Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26624-only-2k-to-spend-on-f6-pls-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billsta said: I was thinking EDIT, K & N filter and BOV...What are your thoughts?←Definitely edit and filter are a great start! No need for the BOV. There has been some debate about why and whether these are required at all! I am running well over 300rwkw without a BOV on my car - no probs! Will be upping the anti to closer to 500, and still don't need one...

The BF F6's have been making really good power so should be a weapon!All the best of luck! Cheers,Ben.

Guest newl Guests Posted 15/07/06 09:13 AM Share Posted 15/07/06 09:13 AM I must be in the wrong crowd. I thought Simon had the F6 making the most power in Perth. That being said though, the strongest late model street car I've seen in Perth was an SS ute putting down just a hair under 521RWKW.
