yess Member 9 Member For: 13y 9m 7d Posted 16/08/11 11:28 AM Share Posted 16/08/11 11:28 AM Hi All,Im relativity new to xr6t’s and I am very keen in purchasing one after owning an R33 skyline for 18 months.Ive been mainly looking at BA’s but may have a look at FG’s - if I can find at a decent price.Basically ive done a bit of research on some mods which would include:f6 intakePod filterFull 3.5" systemFlash tune & boxUpgrade the injectorsPossible up grades as well would be Larger Inter cooler, New fuel Pump and value springs.Budget is around 3k-4k for mods.As I am noob to xr6ts am I heading in the right direction with these mods? what type of power would I be expecting?I am from Perth anyone know of any recommended tuners south of the river?Lots of questions I know but any halp would be really appreciatedJacob Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76504-power-questions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

If u do 3 to 4g's worth of mods should get u over the 300 mark I would think If u do go the ba u will need to upgrade valve springs which are about 900 fitted.Good luck with it all Wats your budget for the car it self??

yess Member 9 Member For: 13y 9m 7d Posted 17/08/11 01:50 AM Author Share Posted 17/08/11 01:50 AM Thanks guys im probably looking to spend 25k max on the car plus 3-4k on mods so maybe the BA and BF are more in my price range.So if I go the BA/BF model the first Mod upgrade would be value springs?Out of the mods I listed above what would be most suitable for more power and reliability at the same time? :beerchug: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76504-power-questions/#findComment-1133710 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go dump and cat, intercooler kit, rapid, plazmaman,pw ect some injectors and a tune that should be around the 3,4 grand mark and should get u over 300rwk and will be safe.
