Mate asked me to knock up a thread on here for his BA, so here it is

BA MKII XR6 Turbo, 6 speed manual.
Had most of the option boxes ticked, comes with premo sound, dual zone climate, seats, pedals and stuff.

Currently has a 3.5" exhaust with a single box before the diff, and a 3.5 or 4" dump, flash tune and 60lb injectors. Also has a twin plate clutch. Makes 330rwhp on 7 or 8 psi, theres a dyno sheet I'll post up later.

We swapped the 17s it came with for these 18s, tinted the tail lights and de-spoilered it today. Plans in the next few weeks are ultra lows as soon as we can get them, triple gauge holder with oil pressure, boost and AFR, and then a cooler and piping upgrade. Front bar, boot and some other bits n pieces are also going to get a spray.

Pics as it is now.

since when dose exhaust injectors and a tune = 130rwkw extra? mind you the grass on the floormatt would be slowing you down..


my bad! seeing in killer wasps not pony power

LURVE the wheels, just as well the car isn't closer to me or those wheels would be on MY beast
So you got 6 KW more for adding exhaust and tune and injectors? oh well.

What happened to the rear spoiler?

Looks good mate!! Some heavy duty valve springs with a tune should see you close to 300rwkw!!

Im not sure what it is with people struggling to understand the difference between hp and kw, flywheel and rear wheel figures lol.

It has 330 rear wheel hp. As mentioned that is 246kw at the wheels.
They make 240kw at the flywheel, so it has more power at the wheels than it does at the motor when stock, so right now it has about 300kw at the flywheel.

It has a generic flash tune, I think the old owner was looking at doing more to it hence the injectors and 3.5" exhaust but he decided to get a riceline instead.
Once the cooler and piping is on and it gets a retune, I'm expecting about 400hp at the wheels. Valve springs will get replaced sometime after, however he doesnt plan on running more than 10psi so its not a necessity.

Well, us OLD people don't always see too well a,d so I didn't see properly the hprw. KW, HP who cares anyway

Whats the plan for the twin guage pod in there now then? Once he gets the triple?
I need a new set.... hint hint..
And anything wrong with those ones?
They look digital.. forget the brand im thinking of. But they black out with key off and come to life with key on?

Yeh it'll be up for sale. Theyre drift gauges from autobarn, theyll also be up for sale as he's after blue ones. Black face when off and have a digital readout in the centre and the analogue style around teh outside.

Bought a 550x400x90mm core cooler and some piping for this thing, as well as Ultra low King Springs all round. Springs are fitted, still waiting for another piece of piping to rock up.
Thanks to Justin from Tuff Car Parts for the springs.

Cooler is sitting right up against the bar, just to give you an indication of the size of it - its a monster!


How it sits now the springs have settled
