I managed to talk my uni into allowing me to do my thesis on modding my car. Car: Ex-NSW Hwp 08 BF mk2Stock Power 206.5rwkwMods: 60lb injectors ebay turbo oil line X-force 3.5in split dump and Xforce cat Redback cat back PW stage 2 IC core Rapid hot and cold side piping Plazmaman under battery CAITuner: X3 from CV performanceResult: 326.9 rwkw on 14 psi Future plans: PW surge tank and bosh pump going on asapOver all I'm very pleased with the result, acceleration is so much more urgent. My little bro is stoked at the new noises it makes, with the induction and BOV sounds, the girlfriend is not so pleased.

discostig Manual mode ________________________ All day, erryday Donating Members 13,798 Member For: 17y 4m 30d Gender: Male Location: Probably above atmospheric pressure Posted 21/09/10 04:06 AM Share Posted 21/09/10 04:06 AM My parts only cost was under 4k - Nizpro cooler and piping to suit stock crossover was 1160, you can get injectors for around 300, intank pump was 350ish fitted, full exhaust was 1800. Then you gotta fit them yourself or get them fitted which is what I did. That part is negotiable I've chosen a good cooler for better consistency of the power. You could hit 300s for less but you get heatsoaked and possibly laggier if you dont get a big dump and cat fitted, not to mention needing more PSI to get the power.Sort of depends on if you want to do it on the cheap or not! I bought the cooler second hand, new inj/pump/exhaust. Exhaust was a bit of a mad splash out on my part though, coulda done dump and cat only.Worm....yeah I'm running the ZF and not keen on 100% duty cycle at all! It's close enough as is. I've heard of up to 350rwkw though yeah Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/70647-first-mods-and-in-the-club/#findComment-1041909 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim985 Member 76 Member For: 16y 17d Gender: Male Location: Hunter Valley, NSW Posted 21/09/10 05:25 AM Author Share Posted 21/09/10 05:25 AM I bought lots of the parts 2nd hand. I have not added up the exact numbers but I think it was around 5-6k. I didn't fit anything myself. It could have been cheaper if I had more time to hunt for 2nd hand parts, and if I had have bought the exhaust as an entire system rather then 2 different half systems. I think I intended to spend 3k at the start, but it never turns out exactly how you plan it. Surge tank added an extra $900 to the build, as did labor. Oil line and hot side were both things I didn't plan on at the start, but am glad I have them now. After doing this build my advice is to be careful what you get from ebay, try stick to buying your 2nd hand stuff from other members of the forum. I ended up having to pay to get the intercooler modified and buy new pipes for it after getting what I thought was a complete bolt on system off ebay. (hence the PW cooler and rapid pipes) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/70647-first-mods-and-in-the-club/#findComment-1041930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
