I run 320rw and neeeeed more. Its beyond a must, its a need now. Just ask some of the 400+ boys, they start with the same 240fw.....go for it mate!! just get some rods and pistons is all.. and if its a ba1, hope that the block holds up, otherwise upgrade that too!!wringing the stock parts neck when it has been shown that they won't last (ie t5 for example) is not a great idea.im all for spending money on cars making them better, hence t56 in a car with no edit!

When the engine was removed the rods looked fine. I have since upgraded them.I think that with engine modifications you need to expect that anything may go wrong. I'm sure there are probably a few mk 2 and BF cars that have had issues under 300rwkw> in the end it's just unfortunate luck of the draw.And I did over 280 rwkw with my Mk1 rods, and they were fine.Did I feel comfortable - sh*t no, which is why I upgraded pistons, rods and oil gears Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35722-engine-kaboom-any-ideas-where-to-look/page/8/#findComment-545870 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle!

No tuner tunes a car purposely to ping.If an owner drives a car when it consistantly pings, then they are foolish to say the least. Trying to blame someone else for this behaviour is pretty laughable.You better than most should know this. Of course you won't acknowledge it..

So yes... there no real extra stresses on engine components... Your engine in theory is making power more, more efficiently with the combination of your selected bolt on components...But in saying that , something going wrong at that power level Ie high level knock (PINGING) ect, will have less tolerance to that of lower KW engines... Hence the more busted engines at higher KW, but they also have been known to let go a stock power levels... Damn Tafe was long time ago...
