PSI40L Member 175 Member For: 22y 3m 29d Posted 22/12/02 12:59 PM Share Posted 22/12/02 12:59 PM I WAS LOOKING THE OTHER DAY AT MY BARRAS TURBO AND sh*t IT IS BIG IT IS A 0.5 COMPRESSOR IN OTHER WORDS IT IS GOOD FOR AT LEAST 25 POUNDS OF BOOST . WHAT WAS FORD THINKING OR WHAT ARE THEY THINKING . WITH A GOOD BOOST CONTROLLER THIS BABY IS GONNA SCREAM the compression is right but I guess the rods and springs wont hold up for that type of boost.I have already ordered my HKS electric boost controller I have an autometer gauge in there already that says 35psibut never goes past 6psi .I reckon this baby when boosted to12 psi which is nothing special but enough for the motor to still be safe and with enough fuel pressure there . this baby will go 350kw easy with the same exhuast and it is nothing that is visible and still looks standard what about that guys...

PSI40L Member 175 Member For: 22y 3m 29d Posted 23/12/02 05:52 AM Author Share Posted 23/12/02 05:52 AM Sorry about the caps didnt notice . it is called a fuel cut defender from turbo smart it is an electronic fuel regulator that is operated with a solenoid so it wired thru the standard computer. as boost is increased the compression in the motor also increases this sets the right fuel pressures for your head chamber to avoid detonation Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/411-boost-controller/#findComment-3989 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn't do all these things it will not stop detonation in the 4.0 litre turbo with standard compression if you increase boost over about 7 psi.

Guest matchew Guests Posted 23/12/02 09:04 AM Share Posted 23/12/02 09:04 AM so turbo6man what do you think the full potential is of the xr6t with the standard ecu?(without cracking the engine open to reduce comp ratio and increaseing boost)are we looking around the 260-270 kw mark with exhaust and intake mods?
