XForce Exhaust for XR6 Turbo: Reviews, Sound & Fitment
6B00ST, Less boost for same power would be a more preferred option for alot of people at this power level.. A larger exhaust will achieve this. Longevity plays a huge part over 400rwkw, even on a built motor your still always cautious.

Powersound Exhausts? Any One Heard Of Them..
DONT BUY A 3' SYSTEM...... some 3' systems wont even tune correctly past 300kw, the STOCK system with a cat still works reasonably well till 310-320kw. Xforce,SMB,APS,Nizpro... any of these are decent. Xforce is best bang for buck system with all the bling.

Fg Stock Injectors
My old ba xr6t ute used to do exactly the same random pop/fluctuation on idle with Bosch 968's... 3 tuners had a crack, all popped. To many bloody variables with them.

Got Screwed By My Local Ford Today !
ring 13FORD and put in a complaint about the dealer, 13ford actually does seem to get the service manager a bit angry and you seem to have better luck. Dont take any sh*t, if it sounds iffy, question the sh*t out of it and ask for proof proof proof! If all else fails, find another service agent who you trust, Aslong as they are a registered authentic mechanic your still covered by warranty. Im un-sure as to how warranty replacement parts are issued though, the mechanic might get payed back by ford after the warranty claim is authorised..?

Brembo Rotor Wear
Yea 40-50,000kms sounds about right for a street car without regular hard stops. Throw in a few track days and regular friday night blasts to 200 and I dare say youd be lucky to get 30,000kms out of a pair of fronts. In saying that, you should be able to get them re-machined ONCE before they will be undersized, so technically, 70-80,000kms a rotor.

Fg New Intake And Battery Relocate
Add another negative ground just below the battery tray somewhere, My battery is mounted like this and I find it doesnt charge the battery properly, after a week of not driving you can notice the difference in starter motor cranking power... 2 weeks no driving and its nearly flat. This happens on my new battery too, so its not a dying battery. Cheap insurance anyway, Find a bolt close by the battery tray to use a ring terminal on, that way you dont have to molester the car.

Injectors...
PIFFLE!! No such thing as better fuel economy with drilled stockers, Get a new tuner who knows their stuff if this is what he suggests!!! Deka's for sure, $370 a set is cheap as chips compared to the early BA era when the only larger options were $650+ a set for 42lb'ers.

How Much Should I Be Paying For A Phase 2 Kit?
Lol where do you shop?? If you get it done BEFORE damage occurs (Note:I didnt say "WHEN") you shouldnt pay more than $1800ish, Call Bayswater Autos. Doubt he's in requirement of a larger stall only wanting 300kw... Not many ever do.

How Much Should I Be Paying For A Phase 2 Kit?
Valve springs are the better part of $800 installed, unless your a confident person with engines, I would rather pay to get these done professionally. Dropping a valve isnt a cheap fix.... Do yourself a favor, Dont buy the Nizpro springs. Custom tune is another 500-700 on top of the flash tuner purchase, your tuner may be able to do a package for say $1000, xcal3 + custom tune.

One For The Experts....
get a mate to watch your engine while you stall it up, the engine will dramatically move to one side, or get on your back and have a look!

Fg Xr6T Splits Location
in stock location in the pillars if their not to bulky (providing your car has premo sound pillars), if not I bought another pair of plastic covers that go inside the door mirrors, and used my boston tweeter pods screwed into them. Looks decent doesnt stand out at all.
