vassa Member 30 Member For: 20y 10m 28d Posted 30/03/15 10:01 PM Share Posted 30/03/15 10:01 PM Hi guys,I recently changed sides and got into a BF II F6 Typhoon with the ZF 6 speed in deja vu. Over the past few years I've had every model Expensive Daewoo from VS to VE in a V8, and spent money on most of them.On the weekend I drove back F6 back from NSW to Melbourne and I love it. I cant believe the power first of all, but even the economy. I got over 730km to a tank!Intune Motorsport did the work on the car which includes Process West intercooler, piping and race airbox, full xforce exhaust, 60lb injectors, walbro fuel pump, battery relocation kit, intake crossover kit and a wastegate actuator mod (I think that's it). It was dyno tuned on 18psi and made 367rwkw.I've heard that Intune don't do the best tunes, so I've booked in at Pit Lane to get the tune checked out, with the possibilty of a retune next week.Overall though the car drives really well and I'm very happy I made the swap. I wish I did it sooner!Andy 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90307-bf-ii-f6-typhoon-367rwkw/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'll let others in the know confirm/deny that.Congrats on the car mate....deja vu is a cool colour... now get some pics up pronto!

vassa Member 30 Member For: 20y 10m 28d Posted 19/04/15 12:01 AM Author Share Posted 19/04/15 12:01 AM Thanks mate. I didn't end up making it to Pitlane. I had something else come up, and getting down there is a hassle as I'm in Sunbury and need to juggle work and family at the same time. I'm looking at going to Dyno-Mite or Bluepower as both seem like reputable tuners.I sorted the Vic rego last week, had an Earls turbo hose fitted, and next week I'll be doing diff bushes and PWR heat exchanger. After that ill have the tune sussed out and get it detailed as it really needs one. 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90307-bf-ii-f6-typhoon-367rwkw/#findComment-1540443 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also excellent idea on the PWR heat exchanger. There's a group buy on right now being run by Ratter from Pitlane so get on it if it's not already over!!! Best mod I've done to the car, don't have to worry about the box milkshaking itself now Love the BFII F6's the most out of all FPVs. White FG F6's look cool with the panda eye contrast but FGs have that overall fatter look which I'm not as much a fan of.What's the odometer up to and how much did you manage to score it for?

vassa Member 30 Member For: 20y 10m 28d Posted 19/04/15 08:12 AM Author Share Posted 19/04/15 08:12 AM Thanks Stever. I saw that but my mechanic has already ordered mine and he got it for $700 delivered which I was happy with.I picked it up with 106000kms and it just ticked over 108000kms, but about 1000km was the drive back from nsw. I picked it up for $22k which I thought was a good considering he had $9700 in receipts from last April, and did rotors and pads all round 3 months ago.I recently fitted Nitto Invos all round too, and went a 255 tyre on the back. It hooks up alot better now. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90307-bf-ii-f6-typhoon-367rwkw/#findComment-1540504 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'd been smart about it I would have saved my money instead of buying a car when I did (5 year loan) and I'd have my own F6! Can't complain though as I've had seven years of fun so far in it Enjoy the beast!

vassa Member 30 Member For: 20y 10m 28d Posted 08/05/15 04:17 AM Author Share Posted 08/05/15 04:17 AM Bit of an update....had the car run up on a dyno and I'm surprised I still have an engine. Boost levels were at 22-23psi!!!I have an aftermarket actuator and found out the flapper was still basically standard. My mechanic said it had be slightly opened up but only a tiny amount so it was overboosting. I called Intune requesting a copy of the dyno sheet showing PSI but the they didn't want to know about it and refused to supply a copy of the sheet.Ended up having turbo removed and my mechanic fitted a bigger flapper and CNC ported rear housing from Rotomaster, and at the same time I also had my PWR transmission cooler fitted.At this stage I plan to have the car retuned on the 16th May....hoping for around 330rwkw. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90307-bf-ii-f6-typhoon-367rwkw/#findComment-1543627 Share on other sites More sharing options...
