Thought I might as well see how she goes against my Fg F6. There must be something wrong with the F6 or the Xr t is something special. the only thing I can think of is ratios. Now the F6 runs a 2.73 rear and the Xr t runs a 3.73 rear. But having said that they sit on the same rpm at 100 ks. I have seen some magazines quoting some good numbers for the Xr t but im still lost. They both weigh about the same. They are both auto. Does anybody know if the trans is different between them. Or is the turbo in the Xr t that much better for getting of the line....?? Would love to hear some feed back Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/54115-ratios-for-fg-f6-xr-t/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few BA/BF xr's that I've happened to be driving along next to take that little bit extra time to get on full boost. Not alot of difference, approx 1 car length at times. But when driving at say 110kph and then do the same thing I can't pull that car length like before.Just the smaller turbo is the difference I think.Benny 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/54115-ratios-for-fg-f6-xr-t/#findComment-815738 Share on other sites More sharing options...
