They're such a nice tyre. Quiet and smooth as. Turn in feels really good also. Happy to have matched tyres again.

Bomber Carnage on the Garage Floor Donating Members 3,994 Member For: 14y 11m 2d Gender: Male Location: Gold Coast Posted 01/07/15 11:34 AM Author Share Posted 01/07/15 11:34 AM Ordered a genuine 12psi Garrett actuator today from MTQ. Will get it back to Profile and swap it over and going by a mates recent ZF tune Clint did, might get him to do that also.Then really need to look at the oil pump gears I think as it's starting to worry me now. Been looking into it today and probably will just go with a gear set only unless my pump has issues once taken out. To do the whole relief and billet back plate thingy is overkill for my current application. If I did a built motor then ok, no brainer. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76642-in-the-club/page/119/#findComment-1551289 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had a quiet exhaust, you wouldn't even know it changes gears (when driving normally) and boy does it change quickly.Something to think about/talk to tuner about - if you decide to do it - is the auto shift from 2nd to 1st at low speeds.If for example, you're doing 30kph, the trans in 2nd gear (auto) and you floor it, it will change automatically change down to 1st and sometimes, this can be very annoying.I also love the 'always use 1st when you take off'.I can't think of a down side actually yes I can........costs more money :(EditI still have a bit of the 1-2 clunk/thump...preasure may be a tad toooooo hard still but don't care Edited 01/07/15 12:55 PM by BenDoCo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76642-in-the-club/page/119/#findComment-1551306 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will look to get it swapped over at the end of the 'turbo' season, so couple of months. Looking into the pump gears a bit more also. Might do the full Atomic race deal so brand new pump with the billet back plate etc. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76642-in-the-club/page/119/#findComment-1551604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
