BTW im talking about a BA XR6 TURBZ...any help would be great. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/49366-safe-boost/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are way to many things that can go wrong.

It has pre-loaded tunes to suit 8 and 10psi... 10 is the max you can generally run on a stock car.Should give you about 40 to 50wkw gain.

Guest Guests Posted 04/09/08 08:05 AM Share Posted 04/09/08 08:05 AM Grab a flash tuner mate as whacking a boost controller on wont cut it. You will end up putting the car in limp mode & it will run alot worse than what it is now.Also, no need to upgrade the ecu as there are numerous cars on this site running 500+rwkw with stock units Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/49366-safe-boost/#findComment-728122 Share on other sites More sharing options...
