So you can imagine my suprise when I picked up the car this afternoon and was told that she is now putting out 315 rwkw after the retune. What suprised me even more was the difference that those extra 15 KWs made. The Car doesnt sound as loud as before ( had a FG F6 rear muffler ,which I will be selling soon) but it does make a nice sound low down especially when its cruising. My next big decision will be either to install the FG F6 turbo that Ive got sitting in my garage or just leave the car as it is. I spoke to Con about it and he promised me an extra 40 kw+ but personally at the moment I think that 355+rwkw is a little overkill for a car that will never see the track, BUT the thought is on my mind.

Personally I think that it visually balances the rear of the car.The rear muffler is different between the F6 and XR6t in the chrome tip but not sure if internals are the same.

Do you mind giving us an update on what your mods are so far to get that. What torque did you manage?Thanks,Benny Besides the flash tune with injectors Benny I have the following:1 FG F6 intercooler. 2 FG GT cold air intake ( complete setup including air hose leading to throttle body which has a bigger diameter)3 A custom made scoop about 2 inches by 6 inches that's attached to bottom of the plastic radiator sight shield just under the air box scoop that cause an air ram effect .4. Just replaced the FG F6 rear muffler with FG GT rear twin mufflers. That is it, nothing else at the moment. as for torque im not sure but will post some pics and chart tommorow.
