phantom xr6t Talks Cheap, Let's Race Member 596 Member For: 18y 6m 14d Gender: Male Location: Atherton, FNQ Posted 13/05/10 09:16 AM Share Posted 13/05/10 09:16 AM well I pickup up my car today after having the auto rebuilt and the tuner has fixed the tune so it will run ok at cold start. I will post some pics later of the bands that came out of the auto, they are really stuffed.

XAH03 Member 597 Member For: 17y 7m Gender: Male Location: Cairns QLD Posted 14/05/10 05:34 AM Author Share Posted 14/05/10 05:34 AM Just found this on another forum- F6 runs a unique conrod and piston compared to XR6 turbo now. The FG XR6 turbo is right on the (OE) limit with these parts which are carry over BA - BF typhoon.MAHLE supply a stronger piston for the FG F6 application, whilst the conrod small end bush is replaced with a cast bronze sleeve and specially pressed and machined into position by ARGO engineering as per the V8 super car rods!

Posted 14/05/10 05:56 AM Share Posted 14/05/10 05:56 AM hence the large drop in compression also......im not too sure on the conrods though maybe Venom XR6 will comment on that Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/67999-ticking-noise-from-motor/page/4/#findComment-1007622 Share on other sites More sharing options...
