Slowrx Member 7 Member For: 12y 10m 19d Posted 16/02/12 04:51 AM Share Posted 16/02/12 04:51 AM Finally get my full license in 1 month so im looking for a nice but quick daily car something that I can drag aswell but don't have to tow there. What I want to know is what would a stock bf xr6t auto run at the drag and with light mods like a tune, upgraded exhaust, intercooler, fuel system wastegate etcc what willl that run. Just a rough estimation as to whats already been proven.I want to stay away from the ba range because the valve springs and gearbox wont handle the conditions ill be throwing at it.Iv seen a few xr6 turbos run good times with minor mods. Trying to find a clean xr6 turbo something with low kms and neat. What price range am I looking at? Iv done a search and there around 13 - 25k. At the same price you can get a xr6 turbo with mild modifications for the price of a stock xr6t but I would prefer something that hasn't had the guts taken out of them already.Aw yeah 1 last thing what are the difference between a bf f6 and a xr6t performance wise.Thanks and sorry if this is in the wrong spot.

The f6 has the bigger cooler and slightly different tune performance wise.Ps brods I did 12s in a manual with those mods Edited 16/02/12 05:08 AM by Henz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowrx Member 7 Member For: 12y 10m 19d Posted 16/02/12 05:18 AM Author Share Posted 16/02/12 05:18 AM Its hard to find 1 for a decent price and when you do its around the 25k mark. Then putting more mods into it will take you to the 30k mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowrx Member 7 Member For: 12y 10m 19d Posted 16/02/12 05:34 AM Author Share Posted 16/02/12 05:34 AM Yeah fgs do look alot nicer than a bf.They are easy to run good numbers but I want to drive it there and back on the same tune, fuel and tyres. Just for fun.Iv got a rx3 so ill keep that for the low numbers. The ford would be purely for street use and ocassional trips to wsid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford sacrificed max power for quicker acceleration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
