You sound happy with it now, wait till some mods are done. Bang for buck these are pretty easy to get some tyre frying HP out of, as you've no doubt read. Things as simple as an injector change and a flash tune transforms these cars. Your starting with a good basis too, with the F6 having stronger rods, a bigger IC and a second air intake.

I'd keep an eye out on paint peeling... shockwave blue has a paint fault wich peels off after enough exposher to the sun an even just washing it with a hose it may peel.. because the paint doent stick to the primerso keep an eye out! an wen u do see some peeling make sure u go to a ford dealer an tell them! an its a fault so you will get it fixed.. but if you have more then 5 panels peeling you geta free respray!I just got my tornado repsrayed for free.. they dont do the plastics though unless you pay a bit extra think its only 300 or so though! so its worth looking in to mate!just a heads up!sorry for my spelling hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosmicFTW Member 4 Member For: 14y 7m 25d Posted 11/06/10 11:27 AM Author Share Posted 11/06/10 11:27 AM Thanks for the info on the paint, its an April 06 build...so not sure if it has the paint issue. The paint is actually in top condition, has been garaged since new and very well looked after. It has 1 yr left on the warranty so hopefully if there are any issues they appear before then! After washing it for the first time as you do I went over the whole car and didnt notice any imperfections.....so touch wood I'll be ok.Was it all Shockwaves affected or just some due to some lazy dude not rubbing back the undercoat enough on a batch of em?cos.
