Wouldn't bother with oem; especially if upping power later. Mine was aftermarket warranty through Ford dealership...think he priced job at $950ish. Most go with superpro (comfort and a race spec one I think). Comfort is quieter but race handles more power. I have nolathane and so far so good for 50,000kms; with stock power and auto though.Also assume you know that manuals are slower than auto; but they are more "fun". Zf auto is good...especially on lazy days. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94828-which-xr6t-to-buy-merged-topic/page/71/#findComment-1561358 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oil Pump gears are also recommended.Now go for power with you basic intercooler upgrade, injectors and a reputable tuner, the torque is just intoxicating at times it pulls like a big block and with traction control off can send you sideways like a flick of a light switch, I love it.It was always my vision that Ford would release a piece of crap like the FG-X way before it happened and then it happened, FG-X will be worth nothing in the future like the UC Torana and the earlier models will be the nice ones.

Always had a soft spot for Rapid. DejaVu looks great as well (shout out Ralph). I saw one for sale about 2 months ago over east in Silk. I nearly died, I never knew they made them in Silk. Was ready to book the next flight over for it.

If that didn't have 175,000 I'd be impulse buying that.http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Ford-Performance-Vehicles-F6-Typhoon-2007/SSE-AD-3527632/?Cr=22 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94828-which-xr6t-to-buy-merged-topic/page/71/#findComment-1563621 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the only Silk coloured F6 (let alone R Spec) I've ever seen.
