Im presumign the motor is after 06/06 build.Next id go to XTF or ##### up in WA and drop 5k there. Big cooler kit + battery relocation + 4" air intake of turbo (or process west street plenum kit?), 60lb deka injectors, capa flash + 16-18psi tune, ported/modded/larger flapper turbo with larger actuator. Walbro intank fuel pump, 100cell cat + middle muffler delete.There is ~6k. So save up a bit more and do it in one hit. Valve springs should be fine in that motor. Recommended highly to get a surge tank. Edited 14/05/10 04:50 AM by icer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: not so sure about an F6, if it was an XR then definitely.In an auto id say xforce exhaust, IC Kit (process west stage 2/3), injectors, tune and surge tank. Might be a stretch over 5k but worth the extra and should see 350+ rwkw Edited 14/05/10 05:10 AM by gregor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start there IMO and go speak to the relevant suppliers.It is a completely subjective question as everybody will have an opinion based on their own wants/needs.Give us a bit more of a steer and you will get better feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Sorry, In reply to the clutch thing, my BA Typhoon clutch went recently, although I think it was more from abuse than anything, they seem to be a pretty good clutch if you don't go giving it too much hell.

Granted a BF mkII should have decent brakes but the suspension aint much chop for a 1800kg car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
