  1. I would like to purchase one (a bit late I realise). I am in Melbourne so just let me know where and when
  2. A mate sort of went through the same thing, he wasn't really happy with the power he got after a tune. He hadn't done valve springs though, so it made even less power. I suggest you do an apples to apples comparison. Load the stock tune (assuming you have a flash box), drive how you used to, change back. That's the only true way to see just how much of an improvement has been made. Be warned, with an X3, it will take a while to change tunes. Needless to say my mate did just that, reloaded his 10psi tune, and hasn't changed back yet.
  3. Even though your peak figure was lower than your mates SS's (GS might not stay on boost long enough to make the power), the torque figure would have been a lot higher a lot sooner, eating the SS off the line. Plus 3 psi, that's not a lot at all.
  4. Yeah I figured Ford would have to play around with it. I know that FG2 is getting the screen, I just wanted to be the first. Plus I should be able to sell my premium screen for a lot more now. I was also asking on here because someone might have an SZ we can have a look at. Oh well, I'll just have to wait. Thanks guys.
  5. Just curious if anyone knows what the difference between the FG Premium screen and the SZ Territory touch screen is (plugs, BEM ...etc). I am wondering because I reckon touch screens are cool. Would it be plug and play? Anyone with an SZ and willing to take pics of it out or something? Any help would be awesome, Thanks.
  6. Yeah but they aren't available anymore as far as I can tell. I was looking at those.
  7. I'd also like to go larger (width). I actually wrote into to Motor expressing my interest in the Prodrive Modified Blade Control arm. They asked for my name and area so they can publish. I highly recommend writing them, the more interest, the more likely they are going to produce them at a reasonable price. On another note, these would be awesome: http://www.ebay.com....r#ht_500wt_1054 DISH. Unfortunately 0 offset, 12" and 150mm of dish is just a dream.
  8. How much are DBAs for FG Turbos? I haven't bought a set in a while. I'd be down for the Cat and dump pipe to suit FG. 600 for both is a pretty good price.
  9. I've had my Dec 09 since new, 82000 kms atm. . Lots of interstate driving though. Is it auto or manual your looking at? Get an FG if its manual. Shifts and everything are just better. Autos aren't as different. I've said that to mates as well. Kms are not the be all and end all of a car. Generally a good gauge. Drive it, see how it feels. A better tell is (in vic, don't know what the other states websites are) an accident check. http://www.vehiclest...ds.vic.gov.au/. Happy hunting, either way, pay what you can afford/are happy with. BTW, never missed a service by more than a couple of hundred kays Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
  10. Diff ratios. 2.73 (auto) vs 3.45 (man), one would be a breathless screamed, the other lazy.
  11. I already posted it lol. 271.06rwkw depending on what HP conversion factor you use. (1.341). The commentator (Pinky) said "If that was stock, my chicken eggs will hatch emus". That was on V Power, so maybe that makes a difference, (factory quoted power is on 95). It bet an SS, w cai and a 5th anniversary GT auto. I didn't get to see what a difference the XR8 box w/kn filter made, I changed it between runs to see. I used to have a video, let me know if you want to see it, and I'll upload it YouTube. While I remember, do you have to get a tune when you take the restrictor ring out? Original post.http://www.fordxr6tu...fg-power-figure
  12. Mine doesn't change down either. TR6060. Lol. I love that feature. I jumped into a magna the other day. Talk about primitive. Heaps better knowing what speed you doing before you go to use the cruise again.
  13. 270.1rwkw to a stunned crowd at Summernats 23. Bog stock, manual. Have the sheet at home, I'll check for temp. I broke the dyno second time around. I just put the gr8 lower box in as well. Oh well. Yeah where/what is the cat restrictor ring? Pics please
  14. Add me to the list please, im in. Is it just turbos? Cos that's a big list if it is
  15. Short Circuits do one as well. (Google it, can't remember there url). Rather cheap, it has shutdown functions. With the 250w one I managed to power a 360, whilst plugged into my desktop for power. It also has a use port that you can check the volts going in and coming out. Around 100 usd for the 2500ks iirc
