Hey guys just got myself a new 1994 futura auto with no mods, mint condition and only 160,000ks

used to own a 1992 xr6 with extractors and exhaust done, and for some reason this new falcon feels quicker?

could it be possible or am i just imagining it because i havent owned a falcon in a while?

as its a 94 ed, it will have the 94da engine, which is a ef head and bottom end, so it may feel a little stronger..as ef had a comp ratio of 9.3:1 compared to the eb's 8.8:1

Pretty well actually

Cheapest mods for improvement would be the EA throttle body/airbox pipe and xh snorkle

Then exhaust/extractors



EA throttle body? whats the difference? just bigger?
