    Not bad, close to what I'd do if I got an xr6t. I'd definately want the xr8 bonnet. Don't know about the turbo stickers on the buldge though. Rocker covers certainly different too...

    Not bad though..

    Very nice ride you have there, love the BA's

    The turbos are a great platform to work from - so much potential - but in stock form I've only seen them run 15s at willowbank.

    What else have you done to it to get 12s? Sounds like an XR6T to watch out for

    Bosch 968 injectors,Bigger fuel pump,Full stainless APS exhaust and APS cold air induction,Unichip piggy back computer tuned to 12 psi Everything else is stock as a rock.

    Most stocky XR6T will run anywhere from 13.6 to 14.5 depends who is driving,Auto or manual

    Just keeping in theme with FPV.Want it to look like a GT but with wosh bang big six grunt.Most GT fords cant understand why they get dusted bad.Few V8 ford fellas thought it was a turbo GT.
    Now just had GT front bar fitted so now i get better flow to the intercooler.

    Yes i will be modding for more grunt.next is Auto rebuild and larger converter and then replace the unichip computer with CAPA edit and change the acutator swing valve,Bigger front mount cooler and retune with about 16+ psi of boost.Should be good for about 500hp at the treads.Then it will be a true 11 sec family car that my wife drives.

    I don't mind, BA'a are cool !, I agree it's the only Ford to have, it's so cool I almost count it as a Holden .

    The newer Commodores are poxy and don't come in cool colours like the BA's do (get with the times Holden! stop painting your sports cars in old mans colours) (except that light blue on the VZ that's hot) I'll buy a BA one day. XY's were ok too but BA's are choice

    nice ford turbo. The VL turbo of the modern era.

    Its dissapointing to see predictable ford bashing. Granted fords arent our favored cars but at least its a performace car, and we gotta have something fast to race against at the traffic lights.

    Isn't it ironic that a Ford gets the most amount of replies on its looks, etc on a Holden forum? heh Nice XR6T btw, I do like the BA in retrospect however I'm still a Holden man through and through
    Back in the hope things have settled down...

    de dum, de dum de dum, la la la la la oh, look at this, oh my god, hmmm

    ok, so get over it now guy's and gals, next person to complain about this will meet mr airstrike with his freshly polished ban stick,

    and it aint no joke, consider it over,
    may not be a holden, but it is a nice looking car,

    and if you wanna get picky, one of the people who have replied here, drives a nissan, and one drives a toyota, so just get over it guy's, no double standards here, either get used to it, or i simply start deleting posts/threads
