Also wondering if and one has install gauges for mk2 yet cheer in advancePerth guy hey?I think everyone will tell you to use the search button and to read the build threads lol Plenty of threads to read and you will see what mods worked for them, etc You've been a member for over a year so you should know where to look around In terms of gauges for MKII I think there's a WA company called Top End Audio - pretty expensive though: http://www.topendaudio.com/ford_gauges.php Not sure if there are other options as I don't have a MKII - so NFI??? Also who did your tune? and how do you go with heatsoak as I didn't notice any mention of intercooler!Exhaust looks good....it will definitely be a love it or hate it thing (as many people on here tend to bag out things that aren't meant to be on a turbo 6 - like the quad tips and v8 bonnets)...but each to their own is the saying and if you like it then that's good! Does it drone much? P.S. this thread is definitely in the wrong section I.e. BRAKES - I'm sure a mod may move it eventually (if it annoys them enough lol)XRSEXT, on 08 Oct 2014 - 07:30 AM, said:Where do I start?? lolIs that the rapids cooler? Looks like a Plazmaman turbo side intake....and just wanting to know what hot side piping that is and whether there is much clearance space? Edited 22/10/14 07:38 AM by PTR_NITRO_FG

I am wondering about the rear apron.At a closer look at the pic, it looks like a custom job, where they just cut out the standard apron.I have been tempted to look for a second hand GS rear apron as that fits the XR6T, I believe.I am curious as to what exhaust system that is and how much it cost, cause that is what I am after. 2
xr6tman Member 306 Member For: 12y 2m 28d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 22/10/14 08:05 AM Posted 22/10/14 08:05 AM I think you're right, looks like a custom job. It's something I'm very keen on doing, I remember when I got my exhaust done I asked about the quad option and they indicated an additional $250 from memory, not sure how it will go noise wise and for air flow...could it be possible to reduce performance do you think?I will look into this soon, it's my next step after the XR8 bonnet

From there it would go into a 100 cell cat. After that a custom flange that went from the 4" into twin 3". From there I would like to use the 3" coyote exhaust all the way to the rear.The guys at Monsta torque said it would flow well.I want it to be quiet and sound stock.

I know you like the understatedness, but aftermarket exhaust helps get rid of diff noise plus it sounds awesome! 1
