If we were to take a standard F6 - and add bigger intercooler, injectors, fuel pump and edit and compare to XR with bigger intercooler, injectors, fuel pump and edit and clutch - what will make the F6 better?What I am getting at - I would like 300rwkw - what would mean an F6 is better?

Plus look sh*t loads better whilst hosing the T through the twisties Edited 05/03/07 09:32 AM by Buf-Phoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interior - I have the custom pack - and reckon it is equal to the F6.I agree that the F6 is a better base package, and more exclusive for sure. But... I think for me and many others a modified XR is a more realistic package - and the crazy modders - what they start as is irrelevant - as they replace everything!
