noodle Member 12 Member For: 15y 7m 23d Posted 13/08/09 11:53 PM Share Posted 13/08/09 11:53 PM Am picking up my fg manual ute in a week or so and will be modding it after 2 or 3 thousand kays. Target is 300rwkw. talked to three performance shops and got three different answers. 1st place reckons air box mod, tune and intercooler, no injectors or dump pipe for around 4k. Second place reckons full exhaust($2300) air box mod and tune with no injectors also around 4k. Third place says air box mod, dump pipe, f6 injectors and tune for around $3500. All these places have good names so what's the go? I think 300rwkw is pretty attainable without too much of a drama and I am confused that there is such a big difference in the way they go about doing it. The dump pipe and injector idea is the one I am leaning towards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure someone will be around shortly to confirm/deny; that would give a FOURTH, and much cheaper, options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noodle Member 12 Member For: 15y 7m 23d Posted 18/08/09 05:07 AM Author Share Posted 18/08/09 05:07 AM (edited) If there are any fg xr6t owners PLEASE reply to this thread. This is doing my head in. I live in brisbane and need to find someone who has tuned one of these cars to around 300rwkw. I have spoken to a heap of tuners and have gotten quotes from 3k to 8k to achieve my goals. Most the tuners are vague when asked about other customers cars and results achieved. Most say 270rwkw is easy for around 2k but then another 4k-5k for another 30kw? Everyone I have talked to give me completely different answers on what to do. If you have a fg xr6t with over 280rwkw I would love to hear from you. I have no experience with turbos and am not in a position to determine who is just making a grab for my cash and who is on the level. Oh yeah in my opening post I mentioned that the third option was the one I was leaning towards. well rang them today with a quick question and they're like "oh no if you want 300rwkw then you need intercooler and full exhaust etc etc" so that will be $8500 thanks very much. wtf. wtf.!
