2003 BA XR6 Turbo motor being used in an older car, and need to find out if it's possible to do a conversion from the electronic throttle body to a mechanical setup to suit the car.. anyone done this, and/0r what is involved?

Cheers

I guess it would depend on what management is running the motor, are you using the Ford ECU or something aftermarket?

well we were planning to run the standard ecu in the car to run all the internal/ control components, then have the Ford XR6T ECU also to run the motor,, butt.. I have read of people installing XF mechanical throttle bodies onto their EL Falcon's in these conversions, butt a mate also said he is going to put an AU throttle body on his car.. so I was just after a good direction to go in with this one..

rsweapon has an xf with an xr6t motor, runs ems and xf throttle body.

it will be easier to install the pedal box from a ba than convert to cable with stock ecu.

im running a E series throttle body on my Phoon motor... cant run FBW with a drag car.

was considering going an 80mm TB, but theres no point having a big TB when the piping going into it is just 3"

I saw a cortina at jambo with an f6 motor, it had a cable t/b. not sure what ecu he was runnin though. he had some big spark amplifiers 2.

I seen a xr6 turbo with a cable tb so im sure anything can be done
