Let the mods begin :D

Good Afternoon Ladies, Gentlemen and fellow boost enthusiasts. 

 

So after finally picking up an XR6T, it is time to start increasing the unicorn farts and panty dropping skid ability. 

The car is a 2007 BF Mk2 XR6 Turbhoe with the wonderful T56 box. (Gotta love a good box). It has 140,000kms and has had a fairly easy life (according to it being a family/mums car).

I am looking for around the 300rwkw mark and want it on a budget (no, not sh*tbox budget. Considering the car was cheap and I wont keep it forever, im not willing to spend a fortune.

 

I've been looking at parts that past few weeks and have made a short list..

 

- Intercooler: HDi Intercooler with piping $558

 - Pump: Walbro GSS341 (quoted 500hp capable) about $120 on eBay

- Injectors: 1000cc BOSCH Fuel injector $600 eBay (do I need 1000cc?)

- Custom Dyno Tune (How much to pay?)

 

I don't plan on upgrading internals including valve springs as I know the BF ones are already beefier.

Anything else to consider, let me know.

 

Cheers all.

60lb injectors will be fine on 98. And at minimum get a hi flow cat. 4" Dump and 5" cat will be best.

Tune cost. 700 for someone using Hp software. If xcal only 700 plus 600 for the xcal.

That's the cooler I'm looking at 

I'll second gaz. At a minimum you'll need a 4inch cat. But a 4inch dump with that cat would be better and the flapper mod done to your wastegate. 

Valve springs would be a good idea also.
