XR6TDAMO Member 4 Member For: 11y 10m 2d Gender: Male Location: Bayside, Brisbane Posted 01/09/13 11:22 PM Share Posted 01/09/13 11:22 PM (edited) Final got my fg xr6t tuned with a few mods on the wknd. Im happy to have 300+ but was hoping to maybe run alittle more kw's but thought id have a fair bit more torque, as im at about 680nm rw running 18psi tapering off to 15psi. Just wondering is that very average or about right with my mods? Just though id be around 750+nm and a few more wk's?Did a with runs down willowbank on sat & best was 12.50 @ 116mph. Running newish cheapish 245/40/18 with 40psi in them. Mods are:SS Growler cold intakeIntake muffler deletePW stage2 intercoolerHarrods piping kit100cel 3" cat with stand exhaust & dumpXspurt 55lb injectors12lb actuatorStandard valve springs (tuner didn't think there were any issues with lifting)Standard zf tuneRollers where a New Dyno Dynamics machineJust wanted some other opinions & advice as im happy but just thought id run alittle moreI'll post dyno sheet as as I can.

It idles & drives as standand with just cruising around which I like. Clint at ProFile Autosports Ormiston did the tune & he really does know his stuff, and a top bloke too. So I should of been more clearer in my original question, is my car just one of those that doesnt run anything special with similar mods as others who are getting higher numbers? Is a 4" dump well worth it, as im really at my $$$ limit atm. Anyway im really happy with the tune & drivability as its my everydayer & fuel economy is the same as stock or even abit better.

Do you have to do a new tune for it or just fillup and go? Is there a massive increase in power running it & is there any side effects to engine if tuned right? If its the go I might fillup & get Clint to tune & store a E85 tune just for fun days?Cheers Damo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86132-fg-xr6t-sedan-306rwkw/#findComment-1420829 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on the tuner but most won't want a 4" dump unless you port the rear housing and put a bigger flapper as you'll get boost spoke. In saying that a 3.5" dump can be added without these mods. Looking at more mid range with the dump. I have very similar mods but also have turbo side, 3.5" dump and surge and make 10rwkw less but turn first and a bit of 2nd with 265 tyres.E85 is the go if you have it available. Can put more boost and timing using, thus more power. You will need a retune though, can't run it on your 98 tune. Side effects are positive on engine from what I understand it burns cooler so better for your engine. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86132-fg-xr6t-sedan-306rwkw/#findComment-1420902 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also said I'll need new valve springs at the same time to cope with increase boost etc. So going to save & do both at same time & hopefully get close to 340-350rwkw on e85 he said. He also said my stock turbo will be maxed at that. I'll be happy at that hp for a while id say.Cherrs....

LU82 Bronze Donating Members 569 Member For: 12y 4m 21d Posted 20/09/13 10:33 AM Share Posted 20/09/13 10:33 AM Im running a 4inch dump with the standard cat back and my tuner has never mentioned having issues with boost control. Good combo with the standard turbo and the car is still quiet.
