I just want you to know I dont drive my car hard at all. I just like to have the power on tap when needed. I am 36 years old and drive conservatively(compared to you guys I am sure) most of the time so hopefully my transmission and motor wont be affected to much.

SHOWDOWN BACK SLOWER THEN EVER! Member 706 Member For: 17y 9m 8d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 28/08/07 05:50 AM Share Posted 28/08/07 05:50 AM dlakers3peat said: I just got my car back for a tune house in sydney. I got a capa flash tuner with full custom tune, a cai, and K&N filter. I was able to get 275kw. Does this sound right. the car goes like a rocket now. I was wondering is that figure to high , as I didnt expect such a great figure. He also gave a full service with full synthetic oil and new spark plugs. He also upgraded the software with typhoon spec software.Now firstly is this Rear Wheel Kws or Fly wheel. Speaking to Jim at Tune house and others who have been there, I doubt that he would let a car leave there if it was running too lean.Secondly what are you driving F6 or XR6T?And finally mate have you got a copy of that print out? I would love to see the torque curve.Ozzie Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/37799-power-output-with-so-little-mods/page/2/#findComment-568725 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt realise there was a place called Tune House. The car was tuned at BTA Motorsports at campsie. Yeah I can post the print out tonight. The torgue curve is not that great as he said I would need to change the exhaust, as the standard exhaust is too restrictive.

Mate being one of the older blokes like me you would want to makes sure that 1. The car is not running too lean (this could lead to big problems in the future) and 2. Make sure you are not pushing the stock internals such as the injectors and valve springs to their limit as these will reduce their shelf life and cost you more in the long run.I am not the most mechanically educated on the forum but this is my view. Owning a BA we don't have the luxury of the stronger bottom end and stronger valve springs like the BF's.And also Power is like Money, the more you have the more you use ...Ozzie Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/37799-power-output-with-so-little-mods/page/2/#findComment-568735 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also these recommendations you suggest would be applicable even if dont drive it hard.
