My mods so far on an fg

[Larfn]

Hi all,

so I'm looking for advice, its been some time since I wrote my ba off years ago I've finally been permitted by the mrs to get myself an fg.

So trying to decide between an f6 and an xr a couple of months back I scored a 2012 mk2 limited edition with 25,000km for around 20k and was tossing up on an f6 2010 model for 38k and decided I'll take the xr and put some money in. To date the bolt ons include full Plaz 700hp kit with tbr and delete pipe, 1000 bosch injectors, herrod intake, 4 inch dump and cat, 460 walbro and hp tuned 14psi for 325. Car is great but I just feel like it's not quite there in a sense I want the thing to really pull. I was running 16psi on the ba for 313 and IMO it just felt like it had more than the fg.

So my question is should I be looking to mod the turbo so I can run more boost to say 16, and will it make much of a difference even if I still run the same power level? Guess I'm chasing more consistent and harder pull/force out of 1st, 2nd and 3rd?

Thoughts?

Get the tuner to ramp the boost in as fast as possible - it'll feel fast as fark but will probably toast the tyres Don't need more power to get a better "feeling". Tune the ZF, too, if you want it to bang gears (assuming auto) in the process of feeling like it's hitting hard
