Guest Northerly Guests Posted 25/07/03 08:21 AM Share Posted 25/07/03 08:21 AM I heard a BA GT today. It was up close and personal. That V8 burrble is better than s*x. Love my T, BUT............ Maybe the GT is the next step!PS: It was a manual Acid Rush GT. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/4942-gt-sound/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given my wait on the T, maybe I should order the GT now ... it might be ready in 3 years! :lol: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/4942-gt-sound/#findComment-38959 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one (T) was supposed to be an XR8, but when I started investigating, I decided on the T.In 3 years, with a series II (III?) T available, I will probably end up not getting my V8 again! Oh, well ... nice position to be in really? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/4942-gt-sound/#findComment-38978 Share on other sites More sharing options...

In stock form the differrence is not that great over the quarter and to mod the t will be one hell of a lot cheaper than modding the 8 but in a few years time we shall see-I think the main problem with the t will be the driveline Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/4942-gt-sound/#findComment-38985 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fella knew we were watching so he had to give it some. I cant remeber what it was like becuase I was so psyched and I forgot. But you cant beat the ol V8 for accoustic goodness.
