hey guys owned my g6e turbo for just over a year now..
after buying her I straight away fitted a trutrac and that was it for about 8 months
then came plazmaman battery relocation and race air box and 4 inch pipe

short after I had a rather damaging date with a gutter on the left rear wheel haha
had to pull the rear subframe apart and diff out to change the control arm (ford would of saved me ALOT of time if they had just put the camber adjustment bolt in from the rear not through the front.. but hey that would just be to easy wouldnt it)

only to put it all back together and now I have to pull it all apart again cause it seems the diff has excessive backlash fter the hit..
so all in all been having fun in my drive way on stands with this thing of late..
but will get it sorted and back in action.. have alot of parts coming in the next few days to fit before the tune!!

getting excited that tax money disapears quickly online shopping for parts :) that's for sure!!!

Hey Baker. Hope you got more done in your driveway than Gordo did in mine. (Not including the 1000 beers and Billy and Tim wearing Rachel's tights).

Trust me mate. Nobody wants to see that! Considering the size difference between them and my wife, seeing them squeezed in was disturbing to say the least. Apparently very comfy though!

Hahahahahahaha sh*t mate I forgot about that.. And don't forget painting Billy's car with a pressure pack as well. God that was a horrible sight seeing Tim in those tights..

Know a bloke up the central coast that is tunning it for me.. Few cars been through the workshop with really good work come out of there.. Boydy's in Berkeley vale

Hoping around 350 but I guess I'll just see how much the standard turbo want to blow..

Got a rapid systems cooler coming

X force exhaust 4 inch dump pipe and 3 1/2 inch system

And am yet to order my injectors and fuel pump thing ill be just going 60lbs injectors or possibly 80lbs

And will get an intank pump... No surge tank yet

Also a new greddy boost controller.

Pulled the diff out tonight.. Will pull it apart tomorrow and see what the go is

Just hope I won't be up for a new truetrac fingers crossed!!
