Hey everybody

I have a 2009 fg xr6 turbo ute, that I have just started giving it some performance mods.

So far it has 1000c injectors and a tune making about 275rwkw. I have been looking at upgrading the stock air box, but can't make a decision what I should do for example a plazmaman intake air muffler delete pipe intercooler or like a cold air intake.

Any comments on them or advice on any other ideas??

Thanks for your help :)

What do want out of it? Performance, sound, both?

Intake muffler delete for sound, cold air intake for performance.

For both but it's a bit of coin turbo side intake ;)

how much do you want to spend? turbo side intake sounds mad, will never ever be a restriction on your turbo regardless of power

If you are not going to upgrade your turbo the factory intake will be fine just drill some extra holes in the bottom. I had muffler delete and it is very loud in the cab you can definitely hear it. My mate has turbo side intake and it sounds awesome all comes down to personal preference.
