Save you 20g later on like I coptHow long did you drive around for after blowing the oil pump? I've destroyed my pump with no damage to the motor. The atomic pump is over 3 times the price of a stock unit last time I checked Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/74651-fg-f6-time-to-modify/page/3/#findComment-1104426 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMURF6 Jamie Donating Members 380 Member For: 16y 3m 2d Gender: Male Location: Maroubra, Sydney, NSW Posted 09/05/11 10:40 AM Share Posted 09/05/11 10:40 AM (edited) My car was as new. Had only 10,000k's and was standard but had a tune at 328.8rwkw. I didn't drive around anywhere. It was towed straight to Ford and then rejected. The atomic motor I have now is supposed to be bullet proof and comes with 2 year warranty at 698kw at the fly wheel. You think you'll get up to that power ? Im on 435rwkw now and its more than enough. Get an atomic billet oil pump. Its worth it. Do the safety parts first. Oil Pump, Surge Tank, Valve Springs, and tune it. Dont worry about dyno figures. These cars a powerful with 200rwkw. Its all in our heads.Drive another car and you'll appreciate your car even stock. My pulsar goes no where and drive nothing like the f6 when it was standard and prob never will.

F6turbo Member 172 Member For: 18y 11m 3d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 10/05/11 10:10 AM Share Posted 10/05/11 10:10 AM Well you cant expect them to honour your warranty if you tuned it. You also decided to go all out and get a full atomic engine after the pump went. No need to freak people out and make them think they are up for 20k if the stock oil pump goes. A surge tank on the other hand I would recommend for anyone looking to mod.

How many times do you want to make that power though? 400 is pushing the limits of many components.. Upto 350 seems to be easy.

Born and Bred in the RSA Posted 10/05/11 08:47 PM Share Posted 10/05/11 08:47 PM Im pretty sure smurf decided that if his engine needed a rebuild he would just go all the way and have it ready for big power.I mean why pay twice? If it needs to be opened and your plan is for a big build in the future just do it now Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/74651-fg-f6-time-to-modify/page/3/#findComment-1104867 Share on other sites More sharing options...
