xr6tnoob New Member 2 Member For: 8y 6m 11d Posted 20/10/16 08:09 PM Share Posted 20/10/16 08:09 PM Okay so I am looking at spending a decent amount of money on a modified fg xr6t. The guy has thrown 10k at it and apparently has all receipts and such. I was wondering if you guys could tell me if this is a safe build or if I am looking at having to do more to this car after I buy it (forged engine parts, etc). The guy says its making 380 kw at the wheels and over 500 hp. All mods were done at http://www.forcedperformancetuning.com/Ford-FG-upgrades.html This is the build Process West s2 I/C kit (includes fitting) Process West muffler delete pipe. Advanced headers 4in dump pipe assy. 1000cc Bosch injectors. Modify factory airbox. Xcal4 flash tuning device & custom 98 tune. Gt3582 core (includes new core, profiling comp cores, actuator,gaskets, oil line & fitting) Springs/headstuds. Fuel pump module - E85 compatable. If you guys could even tell me what things are looking at having to be upgraded around the 500hp mark?

Above list seem spot on from total cost to work done is about right. Has there been any upgrade to diff, gear box (manual or auto) brakes? 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92580-confused-please-help/#findComment-1617659 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muffler delete could of also been done as well. Power seems about right for a 3582 on pump fuel (98) Gearbox will be fine at that power as long as it hasnt been belted everyday. You will know when you drive it whats that's like. Check for whinning, and how it shifts to start with, then randoms etc coming from the driveline Overall car will be fine, power is decent and wont need to do anything except enjoy it. Perfectly safe at that power. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92580-confused-please-help/#findComment-1617673 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAXRTUTE Gold Donating Members 2,639 Member For: 9y 13d Posted 20/10/16 11:45 PM Share Posted 20/10/16 11:45 PM It can but not great for the thing. Id def get a cat and zorst on it. duel 2.5 are pretty quiet and zero drone. A new tune would be needed with a new zorst but also let u ow how the car is going as well which = peac of mind. Be roughly 2k all up. chump change imo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92580-confused-please-help/#findComment-1617679 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with pixy though....brakes, tailshaft and zf rebuild might be your future goals...if the box hasnt been thrashed already Oh and wheels and tyres....if that's your thing Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92580-confused-please-help/#findComment-1617680 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a dyno graph showing boost levels? Unless it actually has the cat done and you weren't made aware of it? 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92580-confused-please-help/#findComment-1617731 Share on other sites More sharing options...
