I'm looking at getting a xr6 turbo, preferably 06 and upwards but still the ba/bf body,
I want to get 500-550hp to the wheels but I dont know about a couple things and hope some of you know and can help me,
1. I've heard the bf 06 and onwards blocks are the typhoon blocks and are the stronger ones and are better to use?
2. Is the bf or fg engine better? Is the head different on the fg or what are the differences between the bf and fg block and head.
3. Can you put a t5 manual trans on a fg turbo engine? Then put that in the ba/bf body.
4. Any recommendations for the following parts?
- forged pistons and rods to handle 800hp+
Valves and valve springs
-what bottom end stuff like bearings ect would suit this kind of power?
- could a fg head go onto the bf "typhoon block?
Much appreciate any advice or comments that can answer these questions!!
