The FG box is a much better unit in comparison to the BA/F t56. The shift it very direct and not rubbery what so ever. Mine is daily driven and I never get sick of driving it.

But I still prefer it over an auto.Was considering the auto just for drive-ability and performance, but knew I would just get bored.Go with your heart and not your head.

Mine is daily driven and I never get sick of driving it.so is it fair to say that an fg xrt in the 6 spd man is both quicker than a ba and bf phoon in a 6 man?

Bonjaz Donating Members 1,841 Member For: 16y 4m 18d Gender: Male Location: CQ Posted 09/05/11 09:07 AM Share Posted 09/05/11 09:07 AM I was wondering about all this too I am looking at going for an fg xr6t and not sure about auto or manual, I love my bf auto but I want a change so I am thinking I will go manual this time. I didnt realise the fg had a different manual box are they stronger then a t56??? eg capable of supporting 400+rwkw all day everyday and how much power is a fgt clutch good for?

T56 is pretty much bullet proof anyway From what I understand the FG box is an evolution of the t56. Ive only heard of one or two sh!tting themselves. All that I can suggest is take one for a run and see what you think Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/74717-manual-or-auto-in-the-fg-xrt/page/2/#findComment-1104400 Share on other sites More sharing options...
