Decided to jump onto the turbo side of the car scene by selling my 05 Maloo R8 for an 08 Typhoon

Buyer backed out of buying my ute and now I don't have the heart to sell it, looks like I will just have to have a car from both stabels haha.

It was running VIC plates at the time as that was the first day I got to drive my car, I bought it in Melbourne.

I have seen those vac suck up some nasty stuff too, this one seemed clean enough.

Have had some trouble with the turbo to mainfold bolts but I will throw some anchorlox on there and solve that issue...along with it's rubbish tune

Update, I have changed a few things on the ol' F6, I dropped the rear suspension/diff cradle and did all the bushes myself, I bought and threw on a process west stage 3 intercooler, 4" racebox, throttle body relocation kit and had to change the exhaust through somehow the old xforce twin 2.5" system twisted and both mufflers had disbonded baffles, its now wearing an xforce twin 2.5" system with quad tips this time round, I also had it set have some dyno time at Pecky's but a few issues with their dyno saw that pushed back until fixed, I dont have high hopes for big numbers with darwins 32 degree air but as long as it can maintain power through the RPM better than its crappy tune now I will be happy.

I did have pictures of the various stages of putting all this stuff on but I cant find my SD card anymore :/

Strong numbers! You got a track up there? Or does it tend to melt in summer?

Love a BF Phoon, wish I had one. My favourite FPV overall.
