Modifying Front Bar
Well for a while I've been looking at my front bar and wondering if it can be modified. I see this nasty bit of plastic sitting in the opening and it doesnt seem to serve much purpose other than to obstruct my intercooler. I think removing it would help airflow more. Does anyone know if this part can be removed and how hard a job it is? Will it has some negative affect and cause my front bar to implode or will it be fine? I've circled the bit in question

Ford National Dyno Shootout Grnd Final
website has been updated. I have been put down as Demo :( Waiting for info from KPM as to why, I'm guessing because I didnt compete in previous days.

Ford National Dyno Shootout Grnd Final
I emailed them about this earlier and they said they post results when they get them from the workshops. So I don't know if Bob Romano have sent them or not to them :/

600+ Kw Ba Ute
haha I am actually, it has only done around 2500km if that. Depends how much a turbo like xradams costs.. I've already bought a bigger cooler than him I'll keep you in mind if I do upgrade

Awesome, Kent told me about this while I was over in adelaide. Every time I think my setup starts catching up you take another step further away :(

Ford National Dyno Shootout Grnd Final
it is so very true, haven't even stretched the current setup to its max potential and I'm already considering getting the same turbo that adamxr6(thisso, another hi-torque car) has for that extra oomph.

Thanks, the guys at hi-torque did a fantastic job so far and it is a very rev happy engine. Not quite 150hp short, as it stands it has done a best of 622rwhp so was still short on that. It has been a slow and sometimes painful process getting where it is so far.

thanks for the pic of my car and yay top forced 6 figure. Was a bit of a shambles I'm in Adelaide atm so had to get housemate to take it there for me and he only picked it up from workshop friday night. Was meant to have a new intercooler on it as the current 1 on there is a major restriction (5 psi drop @ 19psi). So was thrown back together for this and then from what he told me it was breaking down hence well short of its personal bests. :( Ah well I'll have it running sweet when I'm back

Global Meltdown
This is a non issue unless people do the typical stupid knee jerk reaction of trying to pull all their money out of a bank. If people keep a cool head then it won't be as bad as it seems.

Written Off Xr6t With Nizpro Kit
anyone know how much the wrecked XR6T sold for? I still have dreams of doing an oldschool Capri with an XR6T driveline.

Gold Coast Cruise & Dinner
was a fun cruise, hope you guys had a good run after I bailed. Unfortunately on the way home I melted a hole into a silicon join to the intercooler from the turbo and as such couldnt run full boost. :(
