Boosted Falcon

Hey all,

I have recently purchased an AUII XR6 VCT ute and plan on boosting it.

This is how it sits so far:

Engine: AUII VCT, Pacemaker 4490 extractors, SS inductions Cold air intake, K&N PAnel filter.

Driveline: Standard Gearbox, Tailshaft and 3.45:1 LSD. With Exedy Extra heavy duty Clutch (3 months old).

Suspension: Super low king springs front with KYB exel g Adjustable shocks, Reset leaves with 1 inch blocks in the rear.

Wheels: Verde 20inch 5 spoke with 235/35/20 Toyo Proxes all round.

I plan on Producing around 250rwkw from this big girl and I'm hoping you guys can help me out along the way.
I work for a local performance parts shop so anything i need in the way of fuel and ignition systems is all readily available to me.
I was thinking something along the lines of this.

Turbo: Garrett GT35/40r
Fuel system: Standard pump as lift pump for surge tank to Bosch 044. Malpassi 1.7:1 rising rate FPR. Bosch motorsport 550cc injectors.
Ignition: I can't see why the standard ignition system wouldn't be ample. (Some of us have been zapped by these thing...WOW)
Exhaust: Custom Manifold with 50mm Turbosmart wastegate and 3inch system.


I have also read people are having trouble running boost with the vct set-up. So i was thinking of picking up a standard head and having a mate of mine give the
ports a bit of a working over. Can anyone recommend a cam for me??


Hope to hear from you all soon, Matt

That ute sounds sweet. You have to make an account with photobucket, then upload image and copy and paste the image code into your reply. Can't wait to se some pictures.

Pics up now, thanks alot buddy!

Ditch the malpassi reg and run an XR6 turbo fuel reg in place of your stock one.

Otherwise it sounds exactly like my setup which should be good enough for 350rwkw provided the engine and gearbox is up to it.

Leave the VCT and see how it goes. I dont think it will affect much.

Has anyone got a shitty old set of extractors I can use to make my exhaust manifold??

Extractors aren't really strong enough to hold up a turbo - once the metal gets hot it will just bend like a paperclip.

Nice ute! The rims look awesome on it

welcome matt, nice ute. if you haven't got any of your turbo gear yet, get onto the snort site. they have some great kit's available, many of them used on these forum's.

I've done skids in this ute.

Plenty of them.

This thing was born to do skids. And from here on they're only getting longer.

p.s. I hope Pearson enjoys his bill :-)

Hahaha!

I hope you enjoy your awesome ultra heavy duty clutch.

We installed that blind rotten drunk. Good times.

That explains why the spigot bearing was in there on an angle. HAHA!
Good to see the big girl knows what's coming to her.

Oh there's more.

I'm sure pearson will jump on here soon and show ya some good times.

Is the motor still using oil?

Doesn't use a drop. Had plenty of leaks, thats all fixed. Got a new front wheel bearing. And I re-aligned the spigot bearing. Poor twat got charged for 2 new tyres that I had fitted and immediately turned to powder outside our workshop. Thats good times indeed

Oh your so clever.

I remember a gympie when it started boiling and died. Sheesh I thought it would take more of a floggin then that.

Watch out for those 20s too, they buckle easily hahaha!

rims look fat ,cool to see another au getting modded and like dansedgli said dont use a malpassi i was using one and it was a noisy peice of shit i hate the thing it souds like a rusty door hinge lol

Oh well the head will be coming off soon for 1.5mm shim anyway. I've givin' her the the beans many times hasn't let me down yet.

Haha thanks man. We flog the malpassi's cheap. I have a Sard 1:1 sitting next to me at the moment I think should do the trick just nicely.
