An 8psi generic tune?2. A 10psi generic tune? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And gets better mileage when not thrashed!Also the T handles better as its lighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything mine was slightly faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seventytwo Still have a turbo, it's just on a diesel.

Dunnas Member 46 Member For: 17y 8m 16d Gender: Male Location: Was Dunedin. NZ.. Now Brisbane, OZ Posted 16/09/07 06:33 AM Share Posted 16/09/07 06:33 AM The edited T will piss all over the standard XR8, and judging by past dyno results of generically tuned XR6T's and standard Typhoons, I'd say they would be neck and neck with an advantage to the XR6T if the car responded well to the Generic Tune.I.E. I got 333rwhp on 8psi Generic tune, whereas a stock tune in a Typhoon posted elsewhere on this site had 302rwhp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Custom tune different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
