Posted 14/11/08 01:07 PM Share Posted 14/11/08 01:07 PM Just wondering.Checking the SS Inductions website they have released a grolwer config for fg as well as a lower grille for F6.Anyone got pics of this grille? Or more info.What price would be the expected to pay, I have seen one on ebay not sure if that's the expected price to pay?It seems its just airbox, I would want a larger snorkle or a dual snorkle setup, can the snorkles for FG XR8 be purchased seperatly?My car is also currently tuned, will I need a retune for this grolwer?

I don't think so.Happy to be proven wrong, but from my own dyno testing with the XR8 lower section and snorkel $500 is a bit steep for an aftermarket component.You won't need a retune either.

Guest Guests Posted 05/12/08 06:31 AM Share Posted 05/12/08 06:31 AM Do a search on here.SS inductions are overpriced POS items & can be outperformed by the XR8/F6 2nd intake snorkel. There has been 100's of topics on this rubbish Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/51662-fg-ss-induction-growler/#findComment-781155 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAWSEY Member 441 Member For: 19y 5m 27d Gender: Male Posted 05/12/08 07:16 AM Share Posted 05/12/08 07:16 AM you would get better power cutting a hole in your airbox...if you get a 2nd cai you will find much better flow then this item...and save your cash for something better Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/51662-fg-ss-induction-growler/#findComment-781194 Share on other sites More sharing options...
