acid_rush Member 51 Member For: 16y 8m 1d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 19/08/10 12:06 PM Share Posted 19/08/10 12:06 PM After a good 3 months on and off finally had the chance to take my car for a drive. Got it running last Saturday but took it for a good drive tonight, and man am I stoked! I ended up with a full billit internals and servo with 3500rpm TCE stall in it and its like a rocket off the line now and I still haven't got it tuned yet. Was making 311kw@w before but I have changed the exhaust also adding process west/plazmaman plenum kit (still unsure which one yet) then she will be tuned. Will keep you guys posted of results and how the box is once it is tuned.Cheers Brent Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/70087-finally-finish-my-c4-conversion/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

acid_rush Member 51 Member For: 16y 8m 1d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 19/08/10 09:40 PM Author Share Posted 19/08/10 09:40 PM Ok I ordered a C4 for a BA turbo motor so it came ready to bolt in. Came with a converter and that cost me just under $5000, bolts straight into your tailshaft the only thing I had to make was a gearbox crossmember. Also required a lokar dipstick, a B&M shifter, the only mods to the interior was I had to notch the plastic cover around the old gearstick to make it fit I will take some photo's and upload them soon. All up owe's me about $5500 and the best money I ever spent.Cheers Brent Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/70087-finally-finish-my-c4-conversion/#findComment-1033859 Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has done a few gearboxes for my parents hot rods over the past few years and they never missed a beat. B&M shifter from Rocket everything else me and my old man made ourselves including the gearbox crossmember.
