LOVE the badges on the side of the bulge mate, and the overall look is hot. Bonnet goes well with the rest. Good work!

Congratulations on that result mate, that's a good number for the work done. Enjoy it and keep us updated on when the next round of mods happen!

Just got back from my first drive of the F6. WHAT A MACHINE, should have done the mods when I first bought the car. Can see how people get the modifying bug already talking about intercoolers and exhaust with the tuner. But can someone tell me what a 350rwkw plus is like to drive. Can it still be used as a daily driver also what is it like on a long trip say 1000km plus. Also thank for the compliments on the look of the car. Wanted something that was different and have people taking a second look.

Hi mate

Mine runs 370 rwkw and is a daily driver and is absolutely fine. It's just about controlling the loud pedal.

As for long trips , farking brilliant tourer. I just got back from a trip to Brisbane , Darling Downs and back to Sydney.

Average fuel 9L/100ks with a few decent squirts thrown in. Better than stock fuel economy :blink:

Yeah I was told that after the tune my fuel use would go down. Before the tune my average was 15.3l/100km. Interesting considering the boost is up, 60lb injectors.

Good result... for now ... then you'll want more.

With 400+ rwkw, for one tank last year in total city driving (home to city) I managed 605km on the single tank of fuel, using 66.78 litres, which 11.03L/100km.

Obviously an economy test, but proving that the heavy car can be very frugal with the right setup, even in city driving; and at the same time run 11.0 passes and 132mph on pump fuel.

Your tune, injectors, aftermarket parts and how you drive has a lot to do with it. The very tall ZF 6th gear ratio help a lot also.
