Who cares how much he spent . there is no such thing as wasting money as everything cost money. What people spend there money on has nothing to do with you. You must be jealous people have money to do things with?

Just wondering what the short term fuel trim at idle would be I'm at 1% is this a good number?? It doesnt really move up or down much .97 , 1.09 Starting to to data log and some numbers I carnt really find any good solid info on. Cheers

The only thing left to put on will be injectors and a venom high flow cat and pipe direct bolt on replacement witch could be done in Half an hour if that, all other bolt on's are on car. I will give them a call this week. cheers when done I'll put it up on the forum

Cheers ozywalker I think I'll just bite the bullet and travel up I'm just over 3hr away. Does he do a good hourly rate? I'm not going for much more kw still keeping stock turbo so anything over 300kw will be great.

Any no of any good dyno tuners in the Illawarra south coast area? Don't really won't to travel to Sydney but will if I have to. Any one being to Joel at crescent motorsports in Preston

Hi all just a quick little write up I was going through some left over parts off the fgx I had lying around and had a k&n filter in the old airbox I forgot about so I thought I'd throw it the territory 2007 7 seated family car. It would not go in turns out the air box is different between the two so had to put the air box from the fgx in the territory fits fine so all good. I would of thought they would be the same but no. Little bit of useless info fo r you all.

Yes they will as it is a sealed for life unit and it doesn't need to be serviced according to for. Interesting how the warranty period for all new Ford vehicles collected from 1 May 2018 onwards is 5 years/unlimited km*. Any new vehicles picked up prior to 1 May 2018 are covered by the 3 year/100,000km (whichever comes first) Warranty*. No faith in the falcon ford?

No but instead of the temp guage being on half its just under half now that is with a cai as well I will cheack tomorrow when I drive to work but I am queries now.

Yes very true but power levels area big factor as he says he only put a muffler delete and intake,,stock everything els he is worried about pipe splitting the piping you buy will handle that no problem and the cooler I mentioned if it is as good as a f6 one they have seen 400kw with serporting mods so no problem with his power levels and much better then the plastic one that they have. My self I only won't 350 to 380kw, I might go to a track day one day but not racing it or draging it so as a daily it will do the job just fine, as it would for him to.

No you don't need to pay through the roof the top of range plazman etc you do. Plus you have to move radiator back a bit. Iv just bought the $250 piping and $250 new aluminum cooler of eBay its twice as tall with same thickness and width so twice the size as stock one. you use the rubbers out of your stock one and it slides up under car without having to jack car up. Fits awsom well designed don't have to move aircon lines etc only thing I had to cut was a fin on the inside of splash tray underneath car It says it is only for fg models but went on fine to my fgx. Well worth the $500 investment for piece of mind New cooler installed

You might save yourself an hours labour cost if you can do the plugs yourself.

Fair enough lucky I'm a mature driver then

Surly u could nearly buy two zf gearboxes for around or just over $1000??

New cooler installed Went on with no dramas you have to cut some of the plastic off the black bit that is attached to bumper but all good Jeturbo Ya that is true as it is my daily reliability is a must I might just max out the stock turbo run it till I get a new one then tune it to the same or just a little more. I am trying to keep it reasonably fuel efficient ATM I'm getting 9.2 on the average I use half a tank a week (always fill right up then down to half ) on 98 pump.

Was so pissed before I ended up fitting the intercooler to calm down will put bumper back on tomorrow and I'll put a pic up of it done. to dark to take one now. Jeturbo they are impressive numbers over 1000nm on a stock box with your kit and tune that is genuinely mind blowing.

O sh*t I'm sorry Arron then my blood is boiling and I'm all worked up I thought u were talking to me sorry mate looks like I made myself out to the toss pot then Haha cheers Keith and cheers for the info with the upgrades I have and stock turbo should be fine but will be saving for a gearbox and turbo upgrade this year.

I did google it was just wondering what ppl were ctully getting out of them and before u go an back some toss pot on the internet might won't to as wot actually has happened rather then make yourself out to be anouth f#wit on the internet.

Never told anyone on here to nick off and use google unless your one of those no nothing trolls on the imgur app I down loaded yesterday commenting on the pics I put up. one bloke even thought it was an ecotec mustang. My 7 year old son gets trolled and bullied at school I have 0 respect like your IQ u (dipsh*t) for trolls so if I told u to nick off u probly deserved it

Just wondering what sort of power levels your stock zf gearbox's are handling reliably. Iv just done a pipe upgrade battery relocated 4inc intake I was going to wait but I bought a new intercooler witch I'll do tomorrow. Iv also got some 1000lb injectors valve springs oil pump gears will be getting bigger fuel pump get a gear box service engine service then a tune keeping stock turbo will max it out then bring it back just a tad just wondering what thezf can handle when I do upgrade turbo.

How dirty was the old oil that came out compared to new oil does anyone have a pic? I was also told by dealer the sealed for life story while car was in warranty. Now out of warranty they are more then happy to do it I pressed them on why they wouldn't while I had warranty they had no answer so I'll take it els were.

Finally let my download the app here I a link to photos Before Album https://imgur.com/gallery/d4tbTat

OK just finished all the work few little bugs to sort out but got thru it all right 1st removing the bumper was straight forward 2nd removing old pipe work was easy enough didn't have to take front lights out witch was great 3rd putting new pipe in I bought a in tune pipe kit it was a very tight fit to the point were getting the front bumper back on was nearly a no go back on was very tense self moment. 4th putting the 4in intake on, again super tight fit bought a antz intake and battery relocation kit 5th battery relocate was buy far the easiest part to put on 6th test drive, after driving round the block hearing the induction noise and turbo flutter was well worth the day and a half install. took my time did it wright no short cuts. I would highly recommend ppl doing it they are great mods you can do if you have a mechanical mind very rewarding when done THE SOUND is 100% louder I have a auto it is crazy loud I was very shocked to hear the difference big smile on the face still wearing it an hour later. If you have an fgx and have any questions about doing wot iv done just ask and I'll be happy to help as much as I can If some one can tell me how to post some pics so I can get some up that would be great I don't have Facebook or other social media .

Ya will do when I'm done some before and after one of the bracket and wire

So just got it off basically the same plus two 10mm bolts on a bracket holding front bumper to side guards and on either side its got wot looks like wire doesn't look like its for the sensors but might be for crash alert system thru sync ( were it calls emergency service if you have being in a crash) and off it came. Cheers for the help guys

Hi guys was wondering if taking the front bumper off the fgx is the same as the fg I was trying to avoid it but iv got all new intercooler piping battery relocate kit and 4in intake but the intake won't fit under the stock pipe so I tryed just replacing the two intercooler pipes in engine bay but the turbo side one won't fit on stock pipe so have to do all pipes. Was trying to wait till I got new intercooler to put all pipes on but after Christmas might be a while and I'm won't to do it while I'm on holz. So if any one has done the fg and fgx front bumpers remove plz let me no. Cheers guys
