bigshow1 Member 32 Member For: 16y 1m 6d Gender: Male Location: Wollongong Posted 13/07/09 07:39 AM Share Posted 13/07/09 07:39 AM Hello I am new to the turbo tuning. I have a BF F6 6sp auto, I just dropped it off at my local tuner. New 60lb injector plus Walbro Gss340 pump, custom tume and KN air filter going in. My ???? is what kind of power at the rear wheels should I be looking at. Tunning it on the dyno tomorrow.

What would I need to get to the 300kw. He told me alot of the gain would be in the mid rev range.

With these cars it's always better to play on the safe side. I would advise you to get them put in this time, or with the next round of modifications.

Will talk to the mech tomorrow about the valves. What would be the next bolt on mod to do. I do not want to much around 300rwkw. My wife is afraid to drive the car as is(she does have her own car but loves the looks she get for younger bokes when they line up at the lights next to her) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/59550-what-to-expect-from-f6/#findComment-906013 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howsee Donating Members 785 Member For: 17y 7m 9d Gender: Male Location: Carindale, Brisbane Posted 13/07/09 09:37 AM Share Posted 13/07/09 09:37 AM (edited) Your exhaust and intercooler will be the next restriction. With those you should be well over 300rwkw. If you worry about your missus driving the car ask them to do a Valet tune for her, that way she can drive the car but with the knowledge that it won't get away from her. Then when she's finished just load back up your tune and off you go!
