7heavn Member 6 Member For: 16y 10m 16d Posted 02/08/09 09:00 AM Share Posted 02/08/09 09:00 AM Hey guysGetting a new daily driver next week an 04 auto xr6 turbo with 140clicks . Buying the car off a friends brother he purchased it as a one owner car at 130clicks and then took it over to C&V who gave it a clean bill of health for a few mods makes a tad of 300rwkw on there dyno . Now me being me I want to take it out to WSID on some et radials and try to run an 11. The thing I'm worried about is the box and or the bottem end letting go all over the track . If theres a high chance of this I won't bother as it is my daily and I really don't want to have it off the road . Just thought I'd post up and get some opinions from people who have been there and done it .

How it's been driven etc.I would opt for a Tranny cooler as bit of insurance.Tune should have optimised shift points etc Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/60240-first-time-xr6-turbo-owner-wanting-to-head-to-wsid/#findComment-915721 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't be racing though - coil pack issue & aint got decent tyres yet.

Its a great way of showing up the weak points. Then you can fix them.But seriously, agree with Buf-phoon, put a trans cooler on it. Great insurance for an auto. Then cane it!!If its been on a dyno and survived then your odds are good for drag racing. Make sure its got at least half a tank of juice in it.
