bjacobs Member 143 Member For: 11y 4m 20d Gender: Male Posted 04/06/14 09:38 PM Share Posted 04/06/14 09:38 PM Hi guys I'm after the final piece of the puzzle before I can get my first tune- the exhaust. I decided on a mild 4" turbo back xforce for my fg ute but now can't find anywhere to buy one for the right price. So firstly can anyone point me in the right direction to someone I can talk to about pricing/ buying this system. (Already got a price from xforce on here but it was $500 more than best mufflers price, however best mufflers don't have this system on their site anymore)Secondly are there any other systems around the $1600 mark that people have had great success with? I know your gonna hate me but I'm young and I like them loud! Thanks for any advice in advance, beauSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88433-fg-exhaust-on-a-budget/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
MA91CK billet turbos and weathered engines dont mix Donating Members 1,346 Member For: 12y 10m 21d Gender: Male Location: Wollongong Posted 04/06/14 09:52 PM Share Posted 04/06/14 09:52 PM mate a mild stell is 1050, if you can get the stainless get that in 3.5. right in your pricerange (1550) they still have a 4 inch dump and are just as loud. Some guys have goen as fa as removing the rear muffler, and 3.5 will handle 450-500rwkw no worries Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88433-fg-exhaust-on-a-budget/#findComment-1476391 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I've heard the mild has a nicer sound?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88433-fg-exhaust-on-a-budget/#findComment-1476392 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stainless generally comes with a 5-10 year warranty compared to milds 2-3 year..I don't notice all that much difference in sound on the Turbo 6's that I've heard though.. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88433-fg-exhaust-on-a-budget/#findComment-1476410 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mild steel Manta 2x2.5". Never bothered recording it though One bloke reckoned mild steel pipes with stainless mufflers sounded great on his XR and got people asking what he had. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88433-fg-exhaust-on-a-budget/#findComment-1476455 Share on other sites More sharing options...
