braiden Member 21 Member For: 15y 2m 24d Gender: Male Posted 10/05/10 04:29 AM Share Posted 10/05/10 04:29 AM Hey guys,I am about to purchase a pre-June 2006 BF XR6T.My goal for the car is to make 300rwkw safely and reliably. I don't have a money tree to prune whenever I need the cash, but I am willing to spend the necessary money (within reason) to do my best to not overly sacrifice the reliability of the car.What mods would be the best for my situation? It's a 6spd manual if that makes a difference.I figure the obvious mods are:Flash tunerCustom tuneCoolerF6 secondary intakeHi flow catInjectorsFuel Pump?Surge Tank?Is there anything else that anyone would suggest? And good value for money models that will get me where I want to be?I also plan on having the tri-guage dash mould with Oil pressure, boost, and AFR gauge with a wideband sensor (probably Innovate LC-1 or something) so I know what's going on.Thanks guys, muchly appreciated! Looking foward to having a crack at the turbo game!Cheers,Braiden Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/68026-reliable-300rwkw-what-would-i-need/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

A decent cooler helps a lot! Get a fuel pump to be sure too mate.Budget for a new clutch too!

But a big Yes on a Warlbro intank. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/68026-reliable-300rwkw-what-would-i-need/#findComment-1006435 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiresquire Member 266 Member For: 20y 6m 23d Posted 10/05/10 07:14 AM Share Posted 10/05/10 07:14 AM Wouldn't pre-june BF require valve springs as well?ws Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/68026-reliable-300rwkw-what-would-i-need/#findComment-1006466 Share on other sites More sharing options...
braiden Member 21 Member For: 15y 2m 24d Gender: Male Posted 10/05/10 07:34 AM Author Share Posted 10/05/10 07:34 AM Would a Monza cooler do 300rwkw happily? Or an F6 cooler? Or do I need something better for it to be reliable?Also, wiresquire raised a good point. Do I need valve springs? I thought BF springs were fairly tough, even pre 06/06.Can someone clarify?
