Im keen to bring out some of the power that will be available but I am a little worried that someone might lead me down the wrong path and cause some early issues.any advice or links is appreciated Thanks Guys

MA91CK billet turbos and weathered engines dont mix Legacy Donating Member 1,346 Member For: 14y 4m 18d Gender: Male Location: Wollongong Posted 22/08/12 09:40 AM Posted 22/08/12 09:40 AM ^^ I'm with Henz. Give yourself time to get used to the turbo, then start modding. Gives you time to get used to the power

I'm going the suspension (lowering) pretty much straight away and leaving any engine mods for a bit.Sorry henz - Coyote Intake and intake muffler as in Coyote V8? Buy from Ford spares? What's an intake muffler? A resonator to quieten intake sound? Had Subarus with those on - first item in the bin ;^)Noob!
