"Only" 320 rwkw here and I'm up to 332,000km on my XR6T.  Not bad!  Cost me about $5100 including cooler, injectors, fuel pump, brand new full exhaust, labour and the $600 XCAL tune box, back in 2010.  

 

$13k on a stock FG F6 and I'd be expecting 400rwkw++ for sure on 98.  Up to 500rwkw on E85 I would think?

 

I want a boosted V8 for a weekender though.  That sweet noise.

V8 wont hit like the 6. Need more power from the 8 to match the 6. Look at 3000rpm the 6 waves Bye Bye. Look at the torque of the 6.

Think the gt35 runs out of puff around 430-450rw? 

Though for 3k a gen 2 gtx 35 would fit in his budget, not sure the fuel system on a fg f6 could handle 500+rw ? Although a surge and reg isnt a huge out lay 2k fitted for my setup which would probs flow close to 600rw if pushed.

Numbers out of my arse for fun:

 

Big new turbo 3k
Cooler 2k
Surge, pumps and injectors 3k
Exhaust $2k

Fit and tune on XCAL 2k ?
 

= $12k ?

 

Battery relocate and fit airbox would be the go as well, another $500?

 

Anything else power wise?

3k won't even put a dent in a fuel system for E85
