Henz Tampon inserted, Auto Acquired, next purchase a new handbag Donating Members 9,946 Member For: 17y 29d Gender: Male Location: Vic Posted 01/01/11 08:36 AM Share Posted 01/01/11 08:36 AM Nice ute. What's a ktmr tune?Is the 213rwkw without a tune yea? Planning to upgrade the 5 speed or stop molding under 300rwkw?Just a few pointers, 3" cat is to small, go a 4 1/2 or 5", and an 800mm intercooler is Goin to be a nightmare to fit and look a bit poo, why no go with 500 or 600?

KTMR is a performance place here in townsy. I am not looking at major numbers yet and got the cat for free from a friend who makes em. The cooler was new in box for $100 off a mate (he had no need for it, got rid of his project) I am customising the front bar which is fibreglass already so it will be made fit in neat an tidy, plus I am making up brackets to have it sit where I want.Thanks very much for your input and some thought will go into it Edited 02/01/11 05:08 AM by RHR No need to quote above post.

Also look at a fuel pump upgrade, possibly surge tank. With a good custom tune then your T5 may struggle.Benny Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72452-new-to-the-6t-scene/#findComment-1068227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worm A much better forum Silver Donating Members 3,808 Member For: 16y 8m 26d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 01/01/11 09:55 AM Share Posted 01/01/11 09:55 AM LOL just a basic tune and valve spring upgrade will give it enough to blow up your 5 speed!That engine is so overbuilt for the power... Should be able to handle 400+rwkw... The 5 speed can handle 250rwkw... Maybe a little more...Look for a T56 6 speed and a decent clutch before you do anything...

You sure its not 3.5inch?3 inch flows less than the standard exhaust...
