I suppose, compared to the other thread, that's a huge benefit.

Maybe the law doesn't allow for drivers on plates to cruise around in these vehicles, but at least you're insured should you hit someone (which the guy in the other thread is not).

The argument of "but the law doesnt allow it" is still there, but majority of us on this forum were driving them at your age before the laws were in place. Anywho that's going off topic (and there's a thread for that =] )

Welcome mate. Lots of people here (including myself) have removed the centre mufflers and either run straight pipe or hotdogs through in place. No drone but gives it a little more sound. Might be worth heading over and looking at this.

Hi everyone, just new to this site. Have a FG XRT and just finished doing some mods to her.

Decided on the HKS T51R and mounted the HKS T51R on a custom steam pipe manifold with a HKS GT II 60mm wastegate controlling boos, screamer pipe, 4" custom dump pipe to a high flow cat to the factory ford rear exhaust system. The whistle on this turbo is INSANE!!

Then put a Plazmaman 1000hp front mount intercooler kit was also installed to keep intake temps in check, alloy header tank and battery relocation.

The vehicles engine is still totally factory with upgraded fuel injectors. The stock fuel pump maxxed out, max power recorded was 369rwkw @ a low 15psi boost. We knocked the power down after that as we didnt want to let it go running on a maxxed pump.

Car is currently getting bigger fuel pump and few other mods to support 400rwkw +

haha fmd that's some awesome mods to do straight off the bat mate! :buttrock:

that colours growing on me more and more, wasnt a fan when one of my mates got an xr50 t ute, but looks good in the top pic

air intake on the left, u should consider getting a STAINLESS 4in intake, is one of the best u can get, with tests done. contact STAINOnegger on here, he makes them :spoton:

good luck and let us know how u go post-fuel pump installation on the dyno :)

Fark that's tuff! That turbo's got plenty of herbs left in it. Is it the SPL or the smaller one? Do you think you'll leave the stock bottom end and stop at 400rwkw. Or build it and keep going?

Hey HERC. If you click on "The Market" at the top of the page there is an advertising section. Maybe you could put the k's and a few more details in there :)

Is there a sad story to go with the parts?
