My turbo is 100% stock. 15 PSI or so tune. Boost control will be better with the turbo work done though.

Steve didn't do his turbo because burnouts.

LOL...With the mods and power he has im sure its quiet easy.

I also just found out its a X-cop car. They did a awesome job covering it all but noticed it when I just got the tints done, Had very thick security grade tint, guy said only used on Cop/Gov type vechiels. Then he mentioned to check the rear right pillar, found a small NSW Police sticker. When I bought it I did look for the holes where the passesnger footwel is, nothing. Alsdo check the roof for their beam that goes across, no marks whatsoever, Also checked the doors for any sitckers. They fooled me but hey its a great car n rocks.

Two things I also noticed that seem weird. Blooody Radio doesn't work. Both FM/AM. All I get it the annoying "Shhhhhh" sound and everything else works on the ICC (CD/AUX) bar Radio. My mate tested everything yesterday, even removed the ICC and checked antenna wiring. We also changed the Fm box in the rear left pillar and still nothing...Could it really be the unit?

Also noticed that when any door is open the roof light doesn't turn on? Only comes on when I unlock the car or press the light on the lower centre console. Really fustrating at night when I have to get the kid in/out of the car, I'm having to keep unlocking the car.

Found a set of Atomic HD Valves for $250. New.

Why are u getting cappa to do the flapper mod, u in the riverland ?

Nah...Just found it on the Cappa website: http://www.capa.com.au/xr6_accessories.htm

Thinking just to buy this and get Precision Turbo to put it on when they port the Turbo for me. All up it will be a $400 job unless it can be done cheaper somehwere?

You'll need more than 14psi to hit tree fiddy rear wheel

I just got 330, and I'm running 15. I don't have a dump pipe though

You won't find any marks on the roof from the beacons/light bar, check behind the weatherstrips where the door closes on the roof, as they clamp in there. Seen plenty of ex cop cars still going strong, they are serviced religiously. Yes they can cop a hiding when cold, and spend a lot of time idling, but generally they are never shut down after a hiding, which is good.

Yeah with all your gear you should be able to see 350

I'm at 350 now but waste gate holding it back from going anymore so that's next on my list of to do things

Yeh, My aim to get everything first, whack on then Tune as apprently anytime you do a change on these cars you need a re-tune and that means $$$

Yeh, thought so.

Considering their large turbos im sure running 16PSI wont be that bad....plus that will be one of the custom tunes I set on the Xcal.

Yeh, sorry that's where I checked. Theirs nothing, clean as a whistle. Unless a previous owner got it sanded back and re-painted or something.

And yes the car was serviced every 7thou KMS in the log books to 85thou at a Ford Dealer. From there I guess that's where it sold via the Auction.

Wel you can ask for a couple of tunes to be set on your x3

Maybe a low boost one and high boost then its a matter of you re flashing

To what tune you want

And also if you stay with the same tunner they usually don't charge that much for a retune

As the first tune takes the longest and is saved on there computer and all they do is re-adjust

So is mine, congratulations! Mine has a tiny bit of the highway patrol livery left in the boot panel gap, I like to leave it there to remind myself that it has the "cop chip". Heh.

Also adds 10% fully sick factor to burnouts.

Yes, just got them done.

However has been like this since I bought the car. Had a auto elec test all cables/signals and everything came back good. Not worth changing the ICC or taking it to Ford as they want $150 just to look at it.
