Boosted_Falcon Member 86 Member For: 11y 8m 20d Gender: Male Posted 29/07/12 10:46 AM Share Posted 29/07/12 10:46 AM Hey all how are you going?I'm New here and was going to get my car tuned in the next month and was looking for some guidance...I have a 2002 Ba XR6 Turbo that I bought a year ago, due to apprenticeship wages it's taken a while for me to fit these mods but the list is:-FG short engine with new nizpro billet oil pump gears-head has been reco'd with new springs and seals, new coil packs and ngk platinum plugs-wastegate ported + flapper valve + 15 psi actuator-4" dump pipe + 5" cat + twin 2.5" catback (xforce)-walbro intank Fuel pump 255lt p/h-HDI intercooler kit ( stock hot side and 2.5" cold side)-Pod filter in original airbox positionHeavy Duty Exedy Clutch going in next week and I'll put the 60lbs Injectors in just before the tune.whats your guess on power with a minimum of 15psi? I know the intercooler and gearbox are the weak points (t5z) but im not a clutch kicker usually anyways so im hoping they pull out alright.the engine in the car came out of a 351rwkw write-off so im hoping it does well.my query is if I'm missing something? final checks before the tune and wondering on peoples thoughts. Do I need a better fuel pump for that power?last thing...I live in Toowoomba and I'm deciding on either Forced, Elite, Hi-Torque or RDP for my tune... any opinions? this is my daily so any thoughts on tuner's would be great.looking forward to the guesses guyscheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That poor cooler will be at its limits, somewhere around 350rwkw thought. It'll rape your t5z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
