I am looking for cheap performance upgrades for a BF XR6T. My brother installed a new lower intake box with a secondary intake, below the passenger side headlamp, and K&N Panel Filter for a better sound and marginal performance upgrades. I was looking at something similar to start and of course anything else that anyone can recommend, of course on a budget.

straughsberry Donating Members 1,846 Member For: 17y 11m 3d Gender: Male Location: Broady, Melbourne Posted 31/12/08 01:55 AM Share Posted 31/12/08 01:55 AM For the tightest of budgets, don't change a thing and just get yourself a flash tuner and custom tune for around $1200. This should yield you around 250rwkw.Then start saving. Exhaust mods (as indicated above just get a high-flow cat), injectors, fuel pump and I would definitely recommend a decent intercooler. There's about $2400 there fitted. Then you'll need a retune so add tuning costs of $700-$1200. I made 315rwkw the pre-mentioned mods.

Posted 31/12/08 02:59 AM Share Posted 31/12/08 02:59 AM if I only had a few hundred $'s I would be getting a cat back exhaust. Wont gain you much kw's but at least it will sound faster.

No point wasting your money.Russ Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/52921-performance-upgrades-help/#findComment-793945 Share on other sites More sharing options...
