BTW, if you're worried about that, better piss the V8 snork off 'cause the secondary intake is nice and low and will make a nice funnel should you take it swimming.

No way will I be chopping the airbox ! She'd f*cking kill me if it blew up ! She has access to drugs that can kill. I don't want to test her patience ! The wagon on the other hand can get flogged to within an inch of its life !

kartman Member 88 Member For: 15y 8m 2d Posted 21/06/11 12:39 PM Share Posted 21/06/11 12:39 PM We dyno tested the the XR8 intake on the FG XR6T on the dyno a couple of years ago and found the power dropped due to the XR8 intake having an opening behind the radiator(getting hotter air), gains were made using the XR8 intake as it was bigger in the opening but by blocking the opening behind the radiator and only leaving the opening over the radiator we did see some improvement.Joel Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/65589-fg-xr8-intake-on-xr6-turbo/page/4/#findComment-1116248 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dillz Three pedals are better then two.. Donating Members 15,637 Member For: 17y 11m 18d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 18/07/11 09:44 AM Share Posted 18/07/11 09:44 AM 5rwkw roughly, that ain't bad. And it was up a bit right up to 145, I'd say that would make a little difference on the street.

Also, in applications around 300rwkw, Ratter has proven on his (sorry Bels car) that it made an extra 10rwkw or 13.4hp.
