Hey guys,

Ive read the new FG 6T runs about 10psi now is that true? Also what will happen with the Capa generic flash tuners seeing they give you a 10psi map. Will they increase the psi a little more to compensate for the increased boost pressue on the new FG or something else?

Cheers

Standard xr6T runs 10 psi too its in the press release on fords website..

Something about changes to the turbo too. they say the brand and I think model but I am not familiar with bf to know if its a different turbo or just increase in boost from bf 6psi

either way I am waiting to test one again when its dry

cheers utemad

Correct me if im wrong but I think the FG uses the same(ish) Turbo with a smaller compressor wheel running 10psi, gives better throttle response and boosts quicker, but I think the new Garret turbo is specific to the FG Ford, where as the BA and BF it was a out of the box bolt on.

xr6 2001 your spot on. I know they are using the same turbo as BA/BF and yes they are just running a smaller compressor wheel to reduce lag I imagine. I am not sure wether they turbo/compressor set up is just for ford or is a blot on.

The increase in compression ratio assists with the reduced lag also..

I thought the engines now have a lower compression ratio - 8.47:1

Only on the F6. The XR6 Turbo went from 8.7 to 8.8 comp.

does anyone know what will be happening with the flash tuners in regards to the increased boost in the FG...?? will they bring out a 14psi or something generic tune etc?
