It would be harder to replicate in yours being an auto. The only real way would be to hold a gear and full throttle and back right off and then full throttle again a few times to see. The good thing about a turbo auto, full throttle gear changes so no turbo pressure lost between changes like a manual.

Guest xr6 turbo Guests Posted 21/05/03 04:21 AM Share Posted 21/05/03 04:21 AM Thanks for all the info Chris. I've ordered one today and I'll fit it on the weekend. The Guys from GFB were very helpful and informative and I would recomend them to anyone.Rob Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/2895-blow-off-valve-installed/page/3/#findComment-23817 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JESMAL Guests Posted 21/05/03 05:34 AM Share Posted 21/05/03 05:34 AM Looks absolutely great CJF! I'm havign a RED one fitted in my XR6 soon, replacing the BOSCH bov which died on me after only 3 months of use. Apparently the diaphragm was stuffed. Even though the mechanic replaced the BOV f.o.c., I think investing a little more would be wiser. Of course after reading your review and that of another member at FordForums of the GFB Stealth FX, I'm definitely getting one for myself.Only question is, it looks like a bloody snug fit in your T, how in the world do you reach in to make adjustments to the noise level?

Just pop the bonnet and twist the knob. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/2895-blow-off-valve-installed/page/3/#findComment-23846 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm considering the CAPA stage 1 kit for mine at the moment, as all the promises from the "chipping gurus" are going nowhere at the moment.I'll keep you all updated when it is fitted!

You can adjust it which is good..Dont worry im going to do the mods too! it wasnt a performance increasing thing.. just the noise.. I like it.. and i guess each to its own :D Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/2895-blow-off-valve-installed/page/3/#findComment-23891 Share on other sites More sharing options...
