No worries STAINLESS thanks for the tip

Yeh I know that's not why your doing it ratter!To be honest, I didn't think that there would be an issue if its all installed properly, and the parts are good quality bits that's been recommended in this thread! How would one cars power different from another car with the same engine and mods? That's not being smart, actually just wondering!

Yeah secaboy looks like the way to go! Didn't realise it was going to be an issue haha haven't had much experience with modifying cars before

the cars are massed produced, there can be a quite a bit of tolerance acceptance which can affect lots of areas

also have to remember that not all performance parts are equal, have seen some high flow cats that do not flow very well

sometimes it is cheaper to get parts from your tuner as they include a price that has the part fitted.

PM sent.

Careful what parts your getting sold to by the workshop e.g Airboxes and Full Exhaust Systems that wont give you much performance gains unless your going for big power, do your research on what supporting mods you need for the power you intend to make.

Oh ok fair enough ratter! Thanks mate!

Yeah thanks masda74! You are probably right just seemed like a good deal getting all the parts installed for pretty much 500 $ plus tune!

Z2TT, yeah I've been researching quite alot through these forums and have sussed out the better quality gear! Still not going for huge power anyways sp the mods seem pretty basic compared to some of the fg turbos out there!

Looking a getting the car tuned.

Still got warranty for 3 and a bit years wondering if you could get it done and save the factory tune on the xcal 3.

And if anything went wrong fingers crossed it doesn't could you put the factory tune back And when they inspect the car it still looks stock or would it show up on a diagnostic. Any ideas cause I'm board with it now and want more punch.

Any idea? Cheers

the first time the flash tuner is used it saves a copy of the tune that is in the car and yes, ford can still tell

Cheers mate good to clear that up.

Not sure who to get to do my work.

So I guess Bruce is the man to see. He gave good advice on the Xr8 back in the day. Cheers guys and girls.

I'll get a bit more cash together and let the tuning begin.:D
