I have the same as your mate( FG T ute) and is still stock and still have my BA ute with 310 rwkw and it doesnt feel like there is much in it to me, the FG just has torque on tap anywhere you need it. I think in my case the ZF makes a big difference opposed to the 4 speed in the BA. Definitely a lot smoother and refined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I also have the ZF and can beat most 4speed autos with 350rwkw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
