tinsley New Member 3 Member For: 8y 11m Posted 31/08/16 06:37 AM Share Posted 31/08/16 06:37 AM Hi, I have a fg f6 and looking for some advice on my next mod. basically which I would benefit more from for $. I currently have the following parts; 1000cc injectors hi flow cat turbo side intake intake pump valve springs stage 2 process west intercooler. I'm tossing up between a turbo upgrade or an exhaust upgrade. I"m searching for power in the mid 400 but be able to push the turbo a little more in the future if I decide to chase more numbers instead of having to upgrade the turbo again. At this stage, which am I better off purchasing before the other. Any advice is appreciated.

How's your transmission? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92381-advice-on-next-mod/#findComment-1609774 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be looking at strengthening it later down the track.

Which was the opposite to myself, I had the coin, just poor knowledge and didnt get much info before pooring money down the drain.

tinsley New Member 3 Member For: 8y 11m Posted 01/09/16 03:52 AM Author Share Posted 01/09/16 03:52 AM If I go with an exhaust, I'm going to have to port and upgrade the flapper on the standard turbo won't I. I heard they don't like to control boost once you upgrade the dump pipe.
