So, I'm BACK!  

 

I finally decided it was time to mod the old girl.  I dropped my '10 F6 that has 160,000km on the clock into ASG Motorsports on the Gold Coast for Aaron to finish what I started, and tune the old girl.  I did the following...

 

Tog 4" exhaust

460 intank pump

1125cc injectors

Plaz 1000hp cooler kit

Plaz Cai

Plaz Battery relo

Ported exhaust housing 

12.5psi actuator

Hi-Flow thermo

 

ASG did the following...

 

Turbo Oil feed line

Tranny cooler

ZF steel pan and service

Plaz HD valve springs

 

Then we encountered a problem.  My exhaust cam was rooted.  The usual FG wear, so I decided to go Atomic Stage 4.  We've had some discussion (aaron my tuner, and I) and seeing as though the car has 160,000 on the clock and we've put HD valve springs in, now might be a good time to replace the cam chain, tensioner & sprocket.  Seeing as though the front cover needs to come off to do this, we're going to do the oil pump gears too.  

 

Whats peoples thoughts on anything else being done while it's apart?  The only other thing I can think of was maybe head studs, in case I decide to push the power up in the future?

 

 

 

 

Welcome back,

You may as well do the head studs and new valve stem seals and your done.

During that 160k was the oil changed ????

Yeh to fully synthetic ......

lolol

Welcome back bro

 

Asking for a new name change for a moment I thought it was @MattyP and had me thinking you didnt go anywhere and where did the F6 come from.

 

New life in the old girl she is now 21 again. ZOOM ZOOM!!

I never left mate

Stage 4 cams seem way to extreme if considered for regular street use, STD Fg cam spec is tip top

Stage 4s sound awesome, fuel economy not so much.

The car started its life as a mates lease car, so only had Ford oil changes every 15,000km.  I got the car at 80,000 and changed to Nulon and was doing the oil changes every 10,000.  The lucky thing is the turbo oil feed line never blocked.  Also switching to Penrite HPR oil now.

 

I know that Stage 4 Cams are a bit overkill seeing as though standard can hit massive numbers, however I have blown one motor in my last XR6T, and would rather over engineer.   

 

...and just ordered head studs too.  

On the Club FG Facebook page there was a post asking to post vids of cammed barras.. and my god they can sound angry haha
