Alternate Way To Improve Fg Turbo Without Tuning?

[polarbear]

Due to warranty reason I can.t tune my fg turbo yet. If I fit some 275 top range tyres at rear with better shock and spring swaybar. Better rotor and pad. Could I see an sub 5 sec run time and faster lap time? One of the guys who also own a new turbo told me another way to get better time is improve handling and brake.

driver training, most our cars could go better with a top driver behind the wheel

there lots of room for improvement in the fg xr6ts they handle like a boat stock and really even with the coil overs they still don't handle that great, just get some adjustable coilovers with adjustable camber and run it low and stiff with about 2-3 degrees neg camber than put the best tyres on the front like toyo r888's and than something a bit worse on the back like bridgestone re002's and don't run 20inch mags, maby get a trans cooler and a biger intercooler, f6 cooler or something along that line shouldn't need cooler pipes at stock boost,dba t3's rotors new pads and s/s lines with good new fluid , than remove the spare tyre and any other weight, unless you got big bux its gonna understeer

I found the stock tyres fine for stock power and stock handling

(I'd be after bang for buck changes at this stage)

If I was tackling it your way I'd go brakes (slotted T2's with decent pads are a huge improvement compared to stock) => shocks => tyres => coils or sway bars (depending on if you want to lower it)

By the time you're out of warranty and ready to play with the engine you'll probably be ready to replace rotors and can look at upgrading from the T2's then if required.
