Same exhaust housing. Same core.As tab said, FG F6 is the smae as the outgoing BA/BF models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly would be needed to do to make my fg xr6t turbo the same as the fg f6 turbo? how much or is it better to just upgrade to something better. My goal for my fg xr is 350 plus rwkw.
