Fryer of Tyres Boost Addict Member 198 Member For: 16y 5m 28d Gender: Male Location: Belcompton Posted 10/09/08 11:33 AM Share Posted 10/09/08 11:33 AM I believe for the BF XR6T model the cam profiles were chaneged aswell as the addition of variable valve timing.As for the XR6T valve springs and conrods, I thought they were upgraded in Late May of early June of 2006 to Typhoon Spec.Unfortunately for me, mine is an April 2006 model If only I'd know before hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read it on here... ive only got the BA II though... not sure of much...The BF bar looks better... like the one in the header.. BA bar is VT styled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrotus Member 156 Member For: 16y 4m 27d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 16/09/08 03:14 PM Share Posted 16/09/08 03:14 PM So the BF MK II has typhoon valve springs? Does anyone know what the BF MK II upgrade is, and what month cars have this? I heard it was a upgrade to make the turbo more quite - but why? ! !

wiresquire Member 266 Member For: 20y 1m 14d Posted 17/09/08 12:10 AM Share Posted 17/09/08 12:10 AM (edited) I thought the BF Mk II upgrade was cosmetics only - 18" wheels and premo sound. This was added in at no charge to the base price of the XR6T. It was basically a run-out of BFs before the FG came along. I don't believe there were any changes to mechanicals/turbo etc.Not sure about when they were available. They seemed to be running for a fair while - from mid 07 ?hthws Edited 17/09/08 12:14 AM by wiresquire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
