Hi Guys,
Had my XR6 turbo upgraded. Valve springs, injectors, exhaust. made a staunch 277rwkw.
If anyone wants standard turbo injectors for BA PM me.
Also I am going to get some new wheels for my car...22 inch. What are best to get?? Can anyone post pics of their ford with biggggg wheels??
My 20 inch wheels are also for sale, brand new condition, 5 spoke chromies fit AU-BA-BF. $2800, I paid $4000 for them. They are absolutely as brand new. Sydney area. PM me

Didnt they come with 240kw @ flywheel standard? And now with valve springs, bigger injectors and exhaust youve gained around 100kw @ flywheel?!!! 
EDIT: just seen your sig..... 300 rwkw..... let me guess, K&N filter ?

I jumped the gun with my signature. the tuner promised 300rwkw. He reckons my 20 inch wheels at the moment cost me 20rwkw on the dyno??
Yeah it made 277rwkw on the dyno so about 350kw at the motor running 14psi and tapering off to 10psi up top.
What do you guys think this car would run??? mid 12s?
Im a bit poopy actually, i just sold a LS1 which made 281rwkw so I feel like im gonna be short on power.
I have the standard intake on it so maybe ill grab the typhoon intake snorkel and cut a whole in the airbox.

I think the fat torque spread will ensure it feels like its not down on power over the ls1.

Mate you arent going to notice a 4KW differance... But if you arnt happy with the power readout just take it to another dyno workshop and get them to f**k around with the dyno settings to get 300rwKW 
Plus, as More Grunt said your gonna have a lot more torque down low than what the LS1 had
Oh and your boost probably tappers off because you still have the std wastegate actuator. If you upgrade to say a 12psi one you should have no troubles.
What sort of exhast work got done???

if i were u mate, i would buy the cooler and piping, a set of injectors (siemens), a 12psi actuator, a K&N filter and a high flow cat and take it in and get it all done and tuned once, that way u r not paying for multiple tunes.

| Just picked my ute up, got the stage 1 done. i love it, the plazmaman piping and cooler are paid for and on the way. My plan is to just go with the pump, injectors, actuator and full exhaust with a custom tune by christmas, see how it goes. More then likely a new clutch and ripshift will be needed. Great customer service with Terry and the team at BPT. Recommend em to anyone.

| Been driving my ute round for a couple of days with afor mentioned bits, I could here a noise as i get off the throttle just before my BOV goes, i've been lookin this up and have found it to be called "DOSE". I would have thought that I would not get this noise with the BOV in place? any ideas?
