No failures so far though that im aware of. So dont bother maybe? 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76044-modding-your-fg-xr6-turbo/page/38/#findComment-1526591 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The usual mods injectors, cooler & aftermarket cat. I am pretty happy with that & it has the low end torque of a tractor now! I am not fussed about the numbers, more interested on how it drives, which is very nicely thank you! 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76044-modding-your-fg-xr6-turbo/page/38/#findComment-1526620 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting my last service with ford tomorrow then I'm booked in for mods the following Saturday.

BIGROBau New Member 9 Member For: 10y 4m 19d Posted 29/01/15 11:35 PM Share Posted 29/01/15 11:35 PM The standard turbo's run out of puff at around 320 anyway. Going to change it once the treasury permits.
