Will it live? Ooohhhhhh, I hadn't thought about that, but if the T5s can handle a stage two unichip in the Ts then the GT should be fine. My usual driving is quite sedate and normal, with the occasional play to check a mod "seat of the pants style". I don't think there will be any probs seeing as how the CAPA supercharged XR8s are exceeding 400kW. No hint of any dramas, and anyway I can always get a new one if I break it :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stang Donating Members 1,353 Member For: 21y 24d Location: Melbourne Posted 01/05/04 03:50 AM Share Posted 01/05/04 03:50 AM Gent's, had a little run up to Bright and districts (did the touristy crap) did around 1000clicks, went with bro in law and he took his BA 220 ghia, machine definately loosening up 4000 clicks up now, so far no probs apart from diff whine will be getting that fixed, (sh!ts me a bit reminds me of an old taxi from the back seat)tried a few different fuels, found opti and vortex to be very good, stretched her legs a bit on some quiet back roads, and had a few "overtaking lane" drags with bro in law, my you run out of road quick accelerating past a speed I wont mention here, got sick of the back seat squeals though "slow down you're spoiling the trip" "do it when you're by yourself" blah bah blah anyway GT is definatley place to be at these speeds solid as a rock, superior to xr6t, and you know your going to stop quick with no shudder, these brakes are awesome, this car is awesome, bro in law couldnt believe the roar as I flew past in 2nd overtaking him, but the old rev limiter spoils the fun real quick if your not watching, anyway as Rick has said, simply an exceptional car, reckon the "T"s a chick magnet, try a red GT :banghead: anyway Cheers RobO.K Merc been reading your new found enjoyment with the GT, Congratulations mate. But been wondering if you were going to keep using mecturbo or we would see your name change to something else . Maybe we could have a tongue and cheek poll should Mercturbo change his name, Could be fun as for Hypnodoc the stirrer just remind him we would all like to have GT`s but bang for buck the XR6T is still a good car and has done a lot of good for fords image after the failure of GT`s over the past years. P.s MIne is a Sep 03 and no brake shudder and I`m still loving it.regardsStang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
