I have the typical "race type" catch can that sits near the booster, but I'm looking to change it to a better designed one.. That actually has baffles in it. Also I'd like to have it plumb back to the intake, the fumes that come out of my catch can are a bit hectic. Expand It's a baffled catch can, -10 fittings welded to the rocker cover and the breather ran to the intake pipe on the turbo. Set it up myself haha my engine breaths a fair bit so needed to have it plumbed in.

Had a wheel alignment after having the diff out and checked everything over.Front wheels are on back order for another month so painted my spares black so it doesn't look like I'm rolling around with burnout tyres on hahaPut one of the gauges into the dash, came up pretty good 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91515-my-bf-xr6-na-engine-with-turbo/page/37/#findComment-1704754 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I want to see what this setup can do before I change the turbo. Hoping for a low 7sec on the 1/8th or even a high 6 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91515-my-bf-xr6-na-engine-with-turbo/page/37/#findComment-1704758 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should get a 7 second 1/8th easy man.

Anyone used their stuff before? They have a "1000hp rated" intank setup, as well as some others. Been really interested in both the kpm and ai products for intank setups.

Fuel reg can handle the pressure. 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91515-my-bf-xr6-na-engine-with-turbo/page/37/#findComment-1704964 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks cleaner and more stock looking. Wired up a Hobbs switch in the intake to turn the 2nd fuel pump on so they aren't both running at the same time.Also having a crack at making an air scoop for under the car for the rear mounted trans cooler. 3 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91515-my-bf-xr6-na-engine-with-turbo/page/37/#findComment-1705095 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might fibreglass over it yet but not sure. Thoughts?
