  1. Thought the typhoon was 9.28 boost setting? Never the less XFT plugged the flash tuner I got with it in...and it has three programs...Valet...10psi and 12psi...they cant tell which it is running till they get her on the dyno...
  2. Yep that's mine Yeah Im colourblind so they could have said it was pink lol...But I know what I like...Yellow would have been better or silhouette...but the M7 is nice too Mate I would love too! Im working arvos and I just got home....working 2pm-10.30pm all this week, next week Im on days (6am-2.30pm) I really do appreciate your help mate and yeah I agree you would think with a new or rebuilt turbo they would at least check if its gonna run ok....When I rang up he said ahhh all we do is turbos mate, the rest is up to you...Lol I mean how I <3 Bananasing ridiculous...so if the turbo sh*ts itself again, lets just keep putting turbos on her lol. Yeah on the workshop statement it says Oil feed pipe and fitting oil both 180 bucks each...so yeah...Im thinking of getting up early and going to Xtreme ford just so they can check it out....They said that would be ok...dont have another car atm just the phoon...Traded in an 07 XR6
  3. nah they didnt check the filter...said they just do the turbo that's it....shoulda taken it to monsta torque straight out...when I phoned they asked why I didnt...now im scared to drive the bloody thing
  4. Yep Mercury silver...haha "Petroleum grey" lol I like the colour though and the dark agents look good on it...gonna ring turbo tech right now...no log books..the car had done less than 300 km in 2 years...still has the service sticker for 2016 on the window...runs nice though No, he didnt understand what I was asking.Their job is to replace the turbo and do the oil etc..the rest is up to me...told me to ring Monster torque
  5. Damn! You're scaring me lol. When I took it in, they said it was the core...and had noisy bearings.. they did a new oil fees pipe also and gasket manifold and gasket set...Bill told me to always make sure when I get it serviced to check the oil line, but he did say the job worked out great and it was all good...if that means anything.. Oh its Dark grey in Colour...It was advertised as petroleum grey, but Im damned if I know the paint codes...Its like a gunmetal metallic? Ill check the paint code
  6. That's why I'm sorta glad I'm not on the Mines anymore and back down here earning half of what I did..I am FORCED to take it slow now. Money is tighter and that's probably a good thing as silly as that sounds. AHHH! Gotacha! haha Appreciate it man....yep....I'm gonna wait till I get everything sorted 1st before I go and buy something on a whim...as I usually do! that's what is great about chatting to you guys.
  7. Thanks man will do, I work mega shifts atm and have little time...I love the BA 'phoon! Bill told me not to worry about the actuator, they would sort all that out..etc....they did 3 grand of work....I'm happy for now but....will take her to Xtreme ford...with the SCT just for a look...Yeah Mine looks pretty good, just a few blemishes....I'll iron out the problems one by one...she hasnt even had a service yet lol...Thinking Lube Mobile cos I'm so busy....then start working from there. I love the engine bay pics of urs...mine is stock...that's ok for now....started seeing a woman too so that's gonna cut into my budget lol The Zf mine is...maybe I should get that looked at too. It has a lovely note..but exhaust is stock apart from they took that cover off? 50k work? yeah man...That inspires me a great deal....I had the money to throw at her just 3 mnths ago (before I bought her, with cash) but now (im in the mining game) accepted an offer to work down here fulltime as a supervisor..unfortunately the BIG dollars have gone for awhile lol...but Im staying clean lol
  8. Nah, Petroleum grey...just black and white pics Yeah mate , Im in cloverdale....Love you to come around sometime and have a look...give me some advice...this is a real project (although slowly) for me over the next few years.
  9. I would buy it but then the OP said I have to reposi the battery etc etc...I want something that just fits and that's it! lol Those headlights look really good...what are they? or what has been done? Like how u have an FPV badge instead of a ford badge on the grille too. Typhoons are just so tough looking. I had a VE SS pull up next to me the other day and he just waved and said nahh man...nah you're right....Not that Im into street dragging! People in the know.....definitley know the Barra 6 T and know what its capable of. And I almost bought a 370Z instead of the 'Phoon lol (couldnt fit in it lol) Any one have slight warping of the plastic insert in the rear bumper? Know how I can straighten it out? just slight warping
  10. Nah the bearings were rooted in the turbo..Got a new one from Turbotech and she runs fine now..I will be getting her serviced soon though just to see if anything else needs doing asap.
  11. True that, I love how they never mention any of that stuff lol
  12. Anyone seen these? Only 295 bucks...adds some bling for very little...what's your thoughts?
