Its a BF series 1 with the luxo pack, May build. I bought it way back in December 06 from auction in Sydney as an ex executive car with 2500 k's on the clock and I've slowly chipped away at it doing things to my liking. A big thanks to Simon at XFT and all of the boys for their work done on it over the years.I've had it down the track a few times and the best so far is a 11.2 @128mph on my street tyres, Kumos KU31's, pump fuel, during the day at a private track meet. Hopefully in the coming months when its a little cooler, I can better that time.So the list so far is as followsEngine Parts;Nizpro IntercoolerNizpro PlenumNizpro 75 Pound InjectorsNizpro Cold Air InductionNizpro Air BoxNizpro Battery Relocation with Odyssey Dry CellSCT Flash TunerNizpro Over Boost ValveTurboPorted Waste Gate11.8 Pound ActuatorFlapper Valve UpgradeDrive LineStrengthened Input ShaftClutch Plates AddedZF Tuned by Xtreme Ford TuningFinal Drive TailshaftFuel SystemProcess West Surge Tank with Bosch 044 PumpIn Tank Bosch 293 PumpExhaustNizpro 4’stainless steel exhaust, 4’ dump, twin 3’ Catalytic ConvertersWheels and SuspensionVertini RegencyFront 19 x 8.5.King Springs SL.Rear 19 x 9.5King Springs SSL.Monroe Sport Gas Shocks All RoundBrakesDBA 4000 6x6 Wiper Slot RotorsBraided Brake LinesEngine Bay PolishingRocker CoverNizpro Rocker Cover GarnishTurbo Housing and Air IntakeRadiator Expansion TankThrottle BodyFuse CoverECU CoverPower Steering GarnishBraided LinesTuningXtreme Ford Tuning374 RWKW 730 NM of Torque11.2 @128mphAnd a real tiny thanks to Luke, the best ever moderator on this site for some minor work done.....

Weak bottom end? Man these are built Ford tuff aren't they? I'm a believer in not worrying about it too much, whats going to happen will happen and I know Simon has chucked in some good safety for it. If it does let go, then I will look at something else I think.Yeah hopefully I can get to more cruises, but they always seem to fall on my work weekends or have other sh*t booked and kids parties.....
