NA XR6 FG

[Sooula98]

Hey guys, so I have a 2014 XR6 FG n/a, I'm looking to chuck in a little bit of power, maybe just a lil turbo or something. Anyone put a turbo in their n/a's ? If so, what else needed to be done, & how much did it set you back? And no I don't want to buy a turbo! 

Any help would be very much appreciated

Just buy a turbo mate. If you can afford to turbo an na car properly, you can afford a fg turbo.

 

I know that's not what you want to hear but it's the best advice you could be given. 

 

You'll spend $10k doing it up and it still won't be as good as a factory turbo car.

 

Here's a couple of links to get you started;

You'll need a few more bits and pieces such as a service hand turbo manifold and heat shielding, fuel pump, valve springs, turbo oil and water lines, modified block for turbo return, turbo intake, tune and probably more I can't think of this early. 

 

If you can legally drive a turbo car at your age in your state, it won't be roadworthy as a turbo so you'll need to get it inspected and passed. You'll also need to update your insurance otherwise it'll be invalid.

 

Or...you can just buy a turbo car when the time is right.

BUY A DAMN XR6 TURBO

I put a turbo on my n/a, the time, effort, car off the road, getting someone to tune it properly and the fact the engine may or may not hold on for long, it just ain't worth it mate.

it'll bolt straight on.

 

if your new to driving the naturally aspirated 6 cylinder is more than enough power for you
