Simon_h6 Donating Members 56 Member For: 14y 3m 25d Posted 05/07/11 03:28 AM Share Posted 05/07/11 03:28 AM Went to the motorshow last week and saw the intake on a supercharged GT. Cold air intake into a pod filter. Would you be able to put this intake on a FG Xr6T?? The only issues I could see would be that the GT has a bonnet bulge and the Xr6T doesnt so there might be a clearance issue with the top of the intake. Also the pipe from the pod filter looks to be much larger than that of the Xr6T. Any thoughts???

Fpv would want some crazy amount of money for one and the aftermarket ones are better, so why would you bother?

Simon_h6 Donating Members 56 Member For: 14y 3m 25d Posted 05/07/11 05:20 AM Author Share Posted 05/07/11 05:20 AM I called Ford and it comes in two parts - front part is $93.30 and back part is $100.30. The filter is 157.10.. Total $350.70. A friend of mine knows a guy at ford so at a trade price it would probably be under $300.

But interested to see someone have a crack.

Barra Donating Members 467 Member For: 16y 7m 19d Gender: Male Location: Toowoomba Posted 05/07/11 10:32 AM Share Posted 05/07/11 10:32 AM I've heard that too Tab. Some dealers might be more nervous than others to sell FPV parts. As I was informed that FPV some times calls the registered owner to the vin that's supplied, to confirm the owner has the part and is happy with it, told this by panel beater mate too. Rare occasions they'd call I'm sure. Keen to see. Tried to convince someone selling raffle tickets for a gs at a shopping center, to borrow intake and leave my wallet and phone to go and try and fit the intake to check. Was worth a shot.
