Tangles Member 2 Member For: 14y 5m 16d Posted 23/07/10 10:07 AM Share Posted 23/07/10 10:07 AM Hey guys,Just had a random thought and I reckon I should work at ford getting paid millions to come up with ideas....but what do you think of the idea of an XR8T?Has anyone ever bolted one onto the boss V8? What do you think the performance figures out of the factory would be...and what do you think you would be able to achieve after market? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much cheaper to have one blown. Would be nice to have a XR8TT though.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
