I have always like the idea of a XR6 turbo but then I saw these and I had to have one. I will post some pics soon but its black with black leather and 22" wheels, also has been flash tuned to 10psi and debunged and now I have removed the rear muffler for a bit more of a tougher note (was told its has around 300kw), I assume that would be at the flywheel.But as with any new car I have a few questions that I havent been able to find any answers for,1. What sparks plugs should I be running?2. What type of oil does everyone use?3. The vacume hose that connects to the factory BOV has been tied in a knot? Any ideas? The previous owner said it was to do with more noise but the BOV id still all connected as plum-back.4. Is it normal for the rear wiper to come on when its raining and you put the car in reverse? It had me stuffed the first time it did it.Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume Generic as you don't have a dyno sheet if you figure it has 300kws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTLew Inactive Members 1 Member For: 11y 7m 24d Posted 26/05/13 04:23 AM Share Posted 26/05/13 04:23 AM I recently acquired a TTG SY2 ex Victoria Police. Does anyone know what mods are done to police vehicles? The reason I ask is I drove another Ghia Turbo and a F6X and my car feels like the F6X tune more than the standard turbo ghia. Also other guys I know with turbo Territories say they average around 15 to 16 litres/100. Mine returns 12.9 to 13.4 according to the trip computer. I also have a high capacity yellow top battery and an extra set of fuses that I have no idea about. 1 x 40,1 x 80, and 1 x 30 amp. I assume they were for police radio, lights etc. Also when I got the car the interior lights and flashers when you unlock the car were disabled. Any ideas? I have asked the local Ford service manager but he doesn't know as Territories weren't used by Tasmania police or so he says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
