How Much Power Before Changing Internals

[xr6tinscotland]

Off topic sorry, how did u get an XR6T in Scotland?

Originaly from Scotland but immigrated over there when I was 25, traveled around then settled in Perth where I bought my 2005 BA mk2 xr6t ute new then gots some mods done at BPT performance. I already have the fuel pump fitted along with mal wood clutch, upgraded valve springs, 3 1/2 inch st/st exhaust, high flow fuel injectors, actuator on turbo changed, plazmaman intercooler and piping, 19 inch speedy alloys, koni shocks front and leaf springs changed at back with king springs all round.

I moved back to scotland after living in OZ for 5 years, and placed it in the same shipping container as my house furniture, before the intercooler and piping went on it was sitting at 460bhp at rear wheels.

Is good here in scotland as blowing most things but very tail happy.

In process of upgrading the brakes for 4000 DBA 6x6 wiper slots with braided hoses and ferodo performance pads.........and I take the low road....lol

Its cost a few hundred pounds to sort out for registration, change speedo facia to mph, if you import it you have to owned it for a set period and still own it for another period before you can sell the vehicle but no chance of that.

Had to change fuel injectors back to standard items and put standard tune in from flash tuner to pass immissions, but once passed back with the big boys.

Have got a lot of good comments about the ute, everyone so far loves it and had a few offers to buy it, dont think the car would stand out so much as the ute though as we dont really have much pick ups over here.

that kit you have there if it has the around the battery pipe fitted with a good exhaust system and injectors will make 320 rwkw easy, its a very high flowing cooler. (I have done it.)

if you turn the pipe around it will perform better, but as said above mabee a rapid kit could be shipped to you with all the parts needed to make bulk horespower.

What do you mean when you say turn the pipe around, which pipe?

[turbo.vixen]

cant the motors handle up to 400rwkw? that's what im chasing and im at 330

[bluprinturbo]

I think the rule of thumb is 330 absolute max for ba and 350 for bf2 or typhoon.theres guys with more on both bottom ends with no dramas while theres some with substantially less that have gone bang.tune and fuel quality play a big part in the longevity of the engine.

mate that's pretty cool that you took your turbo ute over to scotland with you. I bet it surprises a few people. good luck with your power reaching goals!
