If manual you will need a clutch soon enough with the extra power Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/41877-edit/page/2/#findComment-623804 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Member 182 Member For: 17y 7m 8d Gender: Male Location: Australind, WA Posted 22/01/08 05:44 AM Share Posted 22/01/08 05:44 AM Get a stage 1 kit from RDP as I said above and your clutch will be fine, and you should sort an R8 without too much drama. Then save up for the rest of the bits (including a clutch). In the scheme of things, to get more bang out of the stage 1 tune with some injectors you are just going to run more boost. This is not necessarily a good thing for your engine. Once you do the cooler and whatnot you will make better power on less boost which should be better for your engine... just some food for thought Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/41877-edit/page/2/#findComment-623821 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blokes at RDP said it was up on standard to 301hp or something at the tires (which in hindsight sounds like a lot of increase for a snorkel and a filter...). May have been mistaken there but pretty sure that's what they said. Whatever it was, I was bloody happy with the result you might of got a good one ,think 300 is around 220rwkw that's pretty good for a stock T whatever ya got you'll want more Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/41877-edit/page/2/#findComment-623875 Share on other sites More sharing options...
