PHANTMXR6 It's not a MKI! Member 1,742 Member For: 16y 8m Gender: Male Location: Earth Posted 01/04/09 03:05 PM Share Posted 01/04/09 03:05 PM in the fg series, the f6 models have a bigger turbine housing also.The F6 has the same size turbine housing as the XR6T.The compressor wheel is smaller in diameter.and run more boost I believe? plus your turbo is smaller then the f6.. edit Only the compressor wheel is smaller in the XR6T.

STICKS Member 90 Member For: 16y 3m Posted 01/04/09 10:26 PM Share Posted 01/04/09 10:26 PM F6 has bigger intercooler as well. So intercooler, turbo, injectors and tuned to suit so more boost. Of course tuned up the F6 has more again.So what about internals...does the FG F6 have uprated internals over our FG XR6T's?so u saying that f6 fg has bigger inj than xr6 fg stock? I thought they were the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can remember the FG XR6T has bigger injectors than BF XR but smaller than the FG F6 - I'm sure someone will correct me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottome line is FGT owners have to spend like 1k to get there turbo to a BA/BF standard. LOL!! Edited 03/04/09 09:38 AM by Dillz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hdj80 Member 76 Member For: 18y 22d Posted 03/04/09 02:18 PM Share Posted 03/04/09 02:18 PM ROFLMAO I was thinking the same thing. 240rwkw untouched and 270++ for a tuned T and it's worse how???I'm exceptionally happy with the tradeoff of more power and better off boost response!
