I wonder if the Australian tax office would like it if I made my BF a work vehicle and got a built engine done at xtreme ford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three utes and three sedans. We're a small engineering company with a car hoist in the middle of the shop We did the 400kw ute with all the Plazmaman fruit and since then it's been like what's the least mods we can do for the most gain. Picked up a nice blue 2010 FG T with only 198,000k's on the clock with one owner for $13,700 so the whole package will be peanuts really Didn't have to suck anything 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully all the electrical sh*t and bushes etc have already failed and been replaced. Sounds like a good deal for a work car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They even pay for the tyres I smoke up. Edited 17/07/16 04:58 AM by arronm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riptide Member 733 Member For: 13y 3m 1d Gender: Male Location: Auckland, New Zealand Posted 07/08/16 03:17 AM Share Posted 07/08/16 03:17 AM A little update: Took it for the tune last week but it wouldn't hold the boost down and the tuner changed his tune on whether it needs a cooler and piping so we have bought a turbosmart 7psi actuator and ordered the 700hp intercooler and piping from plazmaman which should give us a nice safe 310kw or there abouts. He said it was already running ~255kw so was already running higher than normal boost so we assumed either a perforated diaphragm or sticky solenoid. Cat is now gutted and a little noisier. Might lag the pipe. Will post back after completion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
