FBT being wrecked on AFF

[Steady]

**** the FBT, whats happening with the ELF now davo?

[EFFalcon]

rumour is the turbo is coming off

[offyaguts]

Jared I agree haha The ELF will live on.....she's sporting FBT interior at the moment so it's looking pretty trick inside. Pissed the DL LTD stuff off.

Yeah J-Mac the turbo is currently still on but the car has the FBT ECU, 24lb injectors, the FBT MAF and intake in it now. Just going to put a set of pacemakers on........oh and the wolf has come off too. Should still be good for 180rwkw odd with the heads/manifold/cam combo on it so it wont be real disappointing. Will have all the piping, cooler and exhaust manifold/turbo off it soon.

I can't help but think about putting in an FG F6 motor into her down the track when I sell the astra.....will lose street cred with no V8 sound but should pick up some rwkw

Shattered Dave that thing was bloody awesome!!

[LTDHO]

Agreed Shaun, Daves EL was the best sounding 5.0 ever.

How does she sound now Dave?

I still remember Wilson's birthday when we took his EF out for the first time turbo'd. Hearing Dave car I had to pick my jaw up off the ground!

Cheers guys.....she wont start at the moment Waynos so not sure, shouldn't sound much different, just less the induction noise and BOV

[stevo]

been years since i have seen the el!

[Steady]

ahh, bit of a bummer man, but it'll be nice to not have to worry about reliability anymore!

if you want a vortech, i got a bracket and pulleys for you

[offyaguts]

Jared that is very very tempting.......is it an S trim? What pulleys?

Stevo she was at AFD this year, made it down there in limp home mode

Today found the starter motor all fried from the last engine fire it had a couple of weeks ago so replaced that and have replaced the engine loom with a fresh non-molestered one today so once I plug it in under the dash and into the ECU hopefully she'll fire up and everything will be reliable for a change!!!

Spewing about it going back to relitively stock, but yeah, its still gona be a mint cruiser!
