Lawsy Wanabe mechanical engineer Donating Members 960 Member For: 20y 7m 13d Gender: Male Location: At the computer, obviously..... Posted 08/08/06 04:54 AM Share Posted 08/08/06 04:54 AM A set of valve springs and injectors (just to be sure) will sort out that top end quick smart, once finances allow... Installing those would allow you to basically leave everything as is, but from 4500 - 6000 rpm increase the boost a tiny bit and see another 25kw gain... That would definately get rid of the whole, "Oh, its running out of puff" feeling you get at the top end, even though you have another number to pass on the tacho...This feeling is even more pronounced because wog has produced, yet again, five billion newtons from about three RPM...

Im getting about 280km out of a tank now. I have been a bit spirited in the T but even putt-ing around it uses heaps more fuel. Have you seen a difference?Those Nankangs got finished nicely.MG Edited 08/08/06 12:48 PM by mickey_gee Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/27364-had-a-custom-tune-done/page/4/#findComment-418556 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen a difference?MG←Hope your kidding I am getting ~ 350- 400ks per tank in stop start Sydney traffic, with a few spirited bursts when traffic allows. My car runs rich as, with the larger 968 squirters @ 312 rwkw.All I can say is that you must be belting the bears off it Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/27364-had-a-custom-tune-done/page/4/#findComment-418561 Share on other sites More sharing options...
