Hey Guys,
I Recently purchased a BA XR6 that was orginally N/A that has a had a turbo conversion but on the N/A engine.
I have read a few threads and no some of the guys here have experience with turboing the N/A engine.
As the car has already been converted, I am looking to tune the car now.
What would be max amount of boost the stock engine can handle? I am assuming it is around 7psi or so? Has anyone ran 10psi safely on N/A internals?
I am looking for around to have around 250rwkw to 300rwkw. The car already has a Walbro fuel pump installed and I have a set of 42 Ib injectors not installed though.
I understand with N/A internals it will never reach 300rwkw, but in your opinion what do you think the max would be I could push it?
Also how much can you run through the T5 and standard clutch before it sh*ts itself?
Plan is to slowly build the car and when the engine sh*ts itself purchase a XR6T engine with T56 box.
Planned mod list is as follows
.Walbro fuel pump
.42 Ib injectors
.Turbo back exhaust
.Valve springs (no on N/A engine though)
.SCT X3 Flash
.K&N Air filter
From experience do you think above mods will support 250rwkw to 300rwkw?
Also for BA's are the brakes the same for N/A xr6 and the xr6 turbo? Im pretty sure the brakes changed on the BF models? not sure though!
Anyone recommend a place in melbourne to get car tuned?
From what I have read nizpro is good?
Cheers
Adam
