We just trying to work out if you can take the banter. As mentioned, there is a lot of reading available on this forum. The BA motors are weaker than the others. They generally make it to 300rwkw with basic mods. When you want to go over those figures, then things get interesting. now unless you want a project car and you want to do all the work of building an engine, you are better off selling the BA and buying an BF MK2 and modding that. it will work out cheaper and you will have less headaches. have fun and enjoy the skids.

Nothing else changes, that I know of. The BF2 XR6T also gets a ZF 6-speed gearbox, BA F6 and BF 1/2 XR6T/F6 have the T56 in the manual versions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
