I'm running standard injectors, Vortech FMU, and a Bosch 023 Fuel pump
Next mods would be a 3" exhaust, because it's still only 2.5" lol
if I blow my gearbox I'd probably upgrade to a T56, re-shimmed LSD and anything else I'd love to get my hands on

Very jelly although needs more dose

Awesome effort learning to do it yourself

cheers people's! I'm fair proud but it wasnt just myself! I had help from others along the way which made all the difference!! so thanks to you people! you know who you are
nah techxr, just cam and springs
Haha it's getting that way aye!?

Car looks great & now has the power to match it, great job.

Any plans to take it down the 1/4?

Cheers, I'm really keen to take it down the track but might be a month or so when I do, and have a few other small problems sorted and cash to back up for a trailer if I break something! lol

took me for a spin in it yesterday. it really goes well and he only took it to 4500 5000revs:)

needs less BOV tho.

Gotta love a nice boosted RED XR.

Cheers mark! and vice versa man yours is mint too!!
well not as much as before it was boosted which kynda sucks because I wouldn't mind lining up more kents to obliterate, or see how it goes against some quicker foes
I get soo many peeps looking for cooler as well, can't really see it which is good for me, but I let em have it and dose em

Haha, Mate I always used to see your car parked along south gippy highway going to work early in the mornings, and I always wondered if you were on any of the local forums
Logged on to boostedfalcon one day and boom, your car is on the front page.
Needless to say Im a big fan of your work and I've been lurking your thread since Tob job mate! I'd absolutely love to come see it in the flesh one day

Lol cheers bud! it's good to know that others admire it!

Looks sick as usual dude!

Haha yeh definately not the best car to learn manual in I'd say - I was better in reverse! Lol

Mate, that is fantastic work ! Really great results with the turbo

In your original setup what is the angle on the pipe to the compression housing ?

Cheers!
umm id rather not say!! lol

Sooo this hasn't really had any changes except for a few blocks, couple heads and a few changes of cams lol!
I think i'm nearly at the point where there isn't anything to do visually, except for maybe a paint job, some minor dint repairs, and some modifications to the badges(taken off and airbrushed logos to replace them) but until then, theres a new ecu on the way(aftermarket), another head ported etc this time and will be saving for bottom end components so i can up the boost later on
But until then, here's some photos done by Warren(Pearly)

What do you mean 'a few blocks' what was the reason lol?

And where are the decorsas!!

lol well the first block was too much boost and was blowing oil passed the rings
Second was my handy work and may have forgotten to tighten up the cam bolt to specs(wasnt tight enough i didnt double check ) was majorly pissed off about that one! lol
DeCorsas are under my bed, im waiting on a centre cap i need to buy because there is one that im missing!! its next to impossible to get one

car looks mint man, got any completed engine bay shots?

thanks man, um I'll have to check through the hundreds of photos I've got lol
pretty sure there is a few
