Boost control will be better with the turbo work done though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.htmThinking 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a dump pipe thoughYou 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.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. Edited 09/10/13 10:59 PM by munyac5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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.
