Lemme explain it simply:
*Turbo side intake for StU StU*
*Exhaust for WoOoSh pOp bAnG*
*Coilovers for tacking those bendy bois*
*Brakes for that epic stop stop*
*Wheels to make it look not behd*
But seriously really good vid explaining it 😎💪
Stutututu*
100% yes 😂😂
Bigger wheels more sticky to Roady road m8. Small wheel = no traction
Suspension is great for performance, ran 10's in my G6E on stock suspension. This list is basically top 5 mods when fresh off your P plates.
Absolute first mod for a barra turbo is a preventative one. Turbo oil line's with inline filter. Leaving the stock one in is a ticking time bomb and will destroy your turbo once the factory gauze filter clogs up.
got a link to where that part can be bought?
THE VIDEO WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR
Not bad vid for a young fella good job. I was a V8 man for a long time. Then I picked up a FG series 2 Xr6t with 10k on it. I’ve had it for 4 years got 34 k on it now. And can’t imagine what to replace it with.
Fuel injectors, bigger intercooler with piping, hi flow cat, cat back exhaust and air filter - my first 5 mods.
Heat exchanger for the zf transmission. Mine just milkshaked. Should include that mod on something so avoidable
Or get a 6 speed manual
Tranny cooler should be the first mod any owner does or bye bye transmission at around 100-150k mark.
The taxi drivers in Sydney were hell bent on keeping up with diff oil changes every 80k they told me.
And I’d change the turbo oil feed line before anything lol
Bruh great video, I’m bouta buy a 2008 FG turbo and want mine to basically be like yours so this video helps a lot
When's the vid coming of blowing the rear bar of with a burnout
YES!! i too am keen for that vid!
Warbird I’ve been practising, maybe very soon 😉
Hey Zac, really appreciate the vid of your mods
Loved the video.
LOVE the car colour.
Big Thumbs Up.
I went a XForce 3 half inch into a 4 inch dump pipe on my FG F6. Sound amazing
Rear falcon rotors are same size from ba onwards. Also all rear single pot calipers use the same pads aswell. I have fg g6et discs all round and calipers on the front to suit turbo rotors on my BF wagon. Only difference between pre FG and FG is the front break lines need to be swapped to the B series ones or switch the FG lines right to left and left to right as the steel bend is facing the wrong way due to diffetent placement on the front side of the rotor) Rear calliper mounts are the standard bf wagon ones. Pbr upgrades that come with 4 pot brembos and territory rears are the only ones larger other than 4 pot brembo rears.
Hey mate I love your vids keep up the awesome work
Awesome video man!
Delete blow off valve and force pressure backwards through turbo causing impeller to shudder there is your flutter.. Till it says no more don't be tight by a descent blow off valve allows turbo to keep spinning while letting excess boost out not causing back pressure to stall the turbo.
I have stock bov in 2 atmosphere lol
First thing I’m doing once I end up buying an f6 is buying a full spool rod and piston rebuild kit, gonna build from the inside out so old Rodney doesn’t go knock knock bang once all the bolt ons go on
Doesn’t need a rebuild until you actually make decent power
fuck wit
or, I build from the inside outside and once I slap a bigger turbo on she’s ready to rock lmao
Rebuild the box, diff and half shafts before you toutch the bottom end. Youll go 9s on a SBE
If you’re ok with spending the money and are planning to go BIG, that’s a good plan. If you only want a extra hundred hp or so, dw about it, they are tough motors.
has his own branded hoodie and doesn't wear it
Very neat looking XRT beaut colour to offset/contrast wheels..nicely debadged
Keep up the good work mate !
did it on my g6e turbo
looks clean
Hey mate just asking I’ve got a fg 2010 6 speed manual that needs a bellhousing but I also have a ford fg 2009 automatic, just asking can my auto bellhousing go on my manual fg?
I'm getting sports Ryder coilovers on mine soon. Then new wheels ryres then. Tune and entry level power package before Xmas can't wait
What u actually need
1 intercooler
2 intake
3 exhaust
4 fuel system
5 brakes
And shelling out for top shelf rubber...helps alot.
@@petepowell7399 getting top shelf every thing is suggested
@@elrud5964 amen brother.
nobody has mentioned valve spring upgrade. a known weak point of the barra turbo. a must do stage 1 mod. Research it
@@coadmanktm you only need valve springs when you need them, if your not getting any valve float then there is no need. The ba valve springs are pretty weak but bf-fg can get better power on stock springs.
Nice car and good setup on this engine!!!
Wow! You seem so stoked! Nice car! oh to be young again. I learnt a long time ago mods devalue your car big time. It is good for the performance shop and good for the next buyer down the line who gets an absolute bargain. Albeit turbos wear things out fast. Baby it. Thank you on behalf of the next buyer or you could keep it going for 25 years and recoup what you have put into it. Keep all the original bits for that day you do sell it. Don't be fooled by greener pastures. It is worth keeping it a very long time. Great job. Next time buy the car that has all the performance specs you want in it already as standard and save you some money, meanwhile enjoy the fun of it and get it out of your system. Hahaha
Best mod for your turbo falcon is an aftermarket oil feed line otherwise it will be na
First thing I did, along with the trans oil cooler.
Learnt that the hard way
Maybe service your car regularly with quality oil and you won’t have a problem
Hi Zac how do you find the brakes after the upgrade? Is it worth the money or if you did it again would you just go the brembo kit? I'm looking at 6 pot brembo but am having trouble justifying the price atm
Depending on what model, you could pull the brake setup off of an f6 typhoon. Old man put a set on his work ute bc he had like 600kg of tools in it.
I like the exhaust setup I done the same to fairlane but instead went 4 inch dumpy's mufflers were ingraved ford performance by borla
Was it from factory an xr6 turbo or just an xr6
Hey man I really like those wheels I don't really know what I'm looking for size wise. I want to get advans but don't know what size I should go for
First thing I’d do I colour icc and xr50 dash accents then I’d do xr50 seats front rear and piano black icc faceire etc
ive been looking at the xr50 seats, are they more comfy than the normal xr ones? or just a different design?
I'd get a kayhan icc system for android auto/apple carplay
nahtz. Xr50 seats have leather and are more comfortable in my opinion
I have a XR69RW which is my license plate... and it's Whyte😆😆 2011
How much is the exhaust system
I have a ford falcon xr6 bf non turbo but I want to get a turbo kit for it but know much it can someone help me out?
I want to turbo my AU falcon would I have to buy a xr6 turbo motor or just the turbo
You could get turbo kits for the AU's intech motor, cheapest one I found is $2500
how much did u buy it for and how much have u put on it?
Some people prefer to keep these cars stock, and they are the type of car imo to hold better value when left stock, maybe a couple wee mods but nothing over the top
Hey mate, I've heard some people say you need a tune after the turbo side intake kit. Have you heard anything about this? Or does the stock ECU adjust well?
Anyone who said you need a retune is an idiot. They function as if nothing changed.
dav386 any car would run a lot better with a custom tune, most factory tunes are trash but for just a turbo side intake you don’t need to get it retuned
what size battery is that (part number).
Here’s two things you should do immediately after getting a Turbo.
Oil feed kit.
Trans cooler for the lady’s in the Auto so you don’t milkshake it.
Sick of losing to autos aye
I have a auto and I just put it in sports mode to drive it like a manual best of both worlds
@@joshbarker432 auto will leav manual for dead true
Auto is faster, but MANuals gives a better feeling, more control, more reliable, cheaper and are just more fun in general. Plus, you can’t clutch kick a auto.
Manual isn’t more reliable than a zf box 😂😂
Does blocking the blow of valve put additional pressure on the turbo ?
😂👍
Who did the tune ?
This is cool as. Im actually doing something similar to my ln111r hilux
Compressor surge sounds horrible IMO. I would be more inclined to run a BOV. Even though I didn't on my MR2. (Budget problems and living two doors from a Police station) Brett from Go Fast Bits would be a good person to talk to...
Me personally, If I had to pick just five mods they would be:
1. Valve springs.
2. Injectors.
3. ECU.
4. Fuel pump.
5. Intercooler.
I'm glad that I'm not limited to just five mods. But if I were. Those would be it I guess.
BOV is so fast & furious circa 2001.. Flutter sounds much better.
@@peterdacey3934 Each to their own I guess. There are reasons for BOV's other than sound. More important reason, but whatever...
What percentage tinting do you have lad
No way. I improved my car’s performance before aesthetics.
Ahaha agreed, I only got rid of my stock rims at 750hp, currently got a decision to make 1200hp or a pain job.... 1200hp any day of the week
Currently own a 07” bf Fairmont ghia and I now wanna sell it for a fg xr6 turbo 😂
Just bought the ba xr6 turbo with a garret turbo first one and am in fucking love got it int the phantom purple with the custom interior
Can you do an episode on the Mighty au
I must be the only one who doesn't like the turbo-side intake and went back to the stock air-box. I find the turbo side intake very noisy and makes the car feel unrefined. Fun for the first week and then all the excessive noise gets annoying.
gtlegend007 never gets old lol
Turbo side intake does not make much difference at moderate boost levels and conservative levels of tune. Start pushing things near the limits of the turbos efficiency on the compressor maps and minimising the pre-turbo vacuum gets important.
Hey where did you get your grill from?
Mackielec on face book 👍
a bigger intercooler helps to
It will be a sad day when you move on to another car Zac!
I hope when that time comes you'll do as I did and hold on to your FG as well.
Already sold now :(
Good video bro, u know how capable these Barra's are. Just ask Dandy Engines
Do the oil feed next Zac! Otherwise remove the micro filter from near the banjo
I got a 1965 ford falcon with 200 inline 6 with header and 0.80 pistons the biggest pistons for a 6 cylinder the pistons are bigger then a 8 cylinder stock pistons.
Considering the 200 ford has a bore size of 3.680" and the falcon v8s had a bore size of 4" i don' t think there would be enough distance between the bores to fit sleeves to take pistons that big and you would have to fit sleeves as there would be no cyl wall left after boring that much out. 0.80 isn't even a size really the old falcons were imperial and 060" was the largest size but 080" may be available making a bore size of 3.760" way less than the 4" bore of the v8s.
Nice
Mine broke today. No boost, & no obvious reason why........ 😒
Please do a vid like this for NA falcon PRETTY PLEASE
facts
Cold air intake, xforce 2.5 inch exhaust, hi flow mufflers, hi flow cat, headers, and a tune. Should see around 185rwkw +-5 on 98
Another massive things everyone should do is get a trans cooler... it’s a must! 😂
Hope everyone enjoyed the video, what mods would you do?
a burnout maybe?
Must do mod on these cars is intercooler piping. Car is literally useless if the factory pipes split... Which they do on anything more than stock boost.
Number one mod trans cooler replacement at minimum at same time as trans service.
Where did you install your trans cooler? Nobody seems to sell an FG kit..
@@TLE1977A Good idea , cheap enough.
Valve springs,intercooler,exhaust,fuel pump,intake,flapper mod,trans cooler,wastegate and oil feed filter I never could count and best to run a bov not good for the turbo without it
What about a flux capacitor?
What about a packet of bbq shapes
If I got a falcon I'd upgrade the rear cradle to fix all the flogged bushes, (drops out really easily), and then start getting rid of as much ford plastic as possible from under the bonnet.
bushes, IMS diff hat, coilovers & swaybars and you'll be chilling suspension wise
@@notax1872 Yep, pretty much the first thing every falcon needs. :) It's good when you know a little bit about them before buying so you can fix the factory weaknesses. Oh and new rotors all around too, the stock ones are usually warped.
@@MV60 funny enough i just bought DBA T2 Rotors front and bendex ultimate pads not sure how they will be for my N/A hopefully good
@@notax1872 Better than stock. The rotors alone are a great upgrade.
@@notax1872 good BUT ultimate pads wear fast and leave lots of black dust on your wheels. You can wash them and next day dust is back.
2.5 mod=earls Turbo braided oil line
Put your coil pack cover on
I would but im too poor to own a turbo haha, i got an N/A and still im too poor to afford 1k and over mods like that haha
Exhaust is half done. New exhaust with drop pipe 3 1/2 to 4 inch and cat. Basically want it from Turbo back. You're missing out with that exhaust.
Evening, Boss.
Would you have any idea what I would look for, for an NA FG daily; in terms of exhaust?
Anything that isn't loud or unresonated. As n/a xr6 sound like utter garbage.
I've got an fg n/a and ive gotten my centre muffler straight piped and then rear muffler hot dogged, sounds sick like a v8 with grunt and rumble, also use as a daily
ive got 3.5" tips, and im pre sure its just had the center muffler changed to a hotdog, isnt extremely loud but its satisfying when you put your foot down haha. could also make your car run rough as fuck for more crackle and pops lol jks dont do that pls haha
Have a look at some of his older videos when he had is na as he had an na fg before buying this turbo!
@@TaffPlays his exhaust was still pretty quiet on his n/a but louder than on his turbo now
5 mods 1. New interior 2. New paint job. 3. New suspension. 4. New stereo 5. No panel gaps
Spot on
Every time you get me when you say ''Falcon'' it sounds like ya saying fawlken bruh
I'm still out on the blocking off the bov, that's some serious extra pressure the turbos gotta deal with when u get off it.. might sound cool but surly it's fking it in the long run🤔
cant have a BOV in most states of AUS, its illegal
@@TheWiLLB00 They come out with a bov standard that vents into the intake it is only illegal if it vents to atmosphere.
@@TheWiLLB00 no its not, its illegal to vent to atmosphere
@@grantreid3031 that’s a diverter valve not a blow off valve
My dad has a Ford falcon XR6 turbo
Clean for 190km on the clock.. like your honestly, upgrade the suspension, rattles your tail bone. Also great that for an AUTO you dont promote the "drone". The air intake, does this meet roadworthy or needs engineering certification for a pinch more performance?
Hi Zac luv ya channel and thanks I got a discount from Mitchell at Mackielec he's awsome great bloke I get all my work done through him also got my cold side intake and battery relocation also got intercooler pipe replacement kit and he just did my suspension lowered looks mint and drives awsome just saving for a tune he's taking my FG to XR6 Developments can't wait 👍🏻
how do u have turbo on p plates?
Move to a state that allows it.
How to do shaft damage
Work the shaft 😛
Miss my old xr6 turbo. Got an el xr8 now and it's no fun to drive.
I love my EF. Only a 4ltr but she's clean as.
Love to know where you're getting a 4 corner brembo kit for $1500
Ben Krause fronts only 4 pot I’ve seen go cheap
My mate sells them for that price all the time!
Fuck I needed this video
Hey Zac I've seen your falcon around maybe you should race me one day
Do you have a full engine modlist on your car?
I'm struggling on deciding between an FG XR8 or turbski. Manual of course, Is your power reliable?
Cheers mate!
From the top of my head he has a k&n intake relocated to be a turboside intake, plasmaman intercooler rated for 700hp, painted valve cover and I think that is it apart from the tune.
The xr6t is the better car when there both stock I've heard the xr8 is sluggish
The power difference is like 10-20kw more for the xr8s than the turbos, but honestly you will fall in love with the xr6 turbos. I have a BA one and I wasn’t much of a turbo guy and only got it because it was an absolute steal, and I bloody love the thing and all for turbos now. They make such epic noises and better to Mod as well. Defs get an xr6 turbo!
auto has better ratio, revs and gear changes than the manual trust
@@mikehunt8221 yeah but manual is more fun
simple vids are best
I have the process west street intake which is not turbo side and still crosses over the motor and the car is making over 500rwkw so the turbo side is not essential I don't think unless you are going for massive power.
Yeah, we love him, coz he ain't a dick. But Zac really is very new to performance cars. He gets a lot of things wrong. Just hope people who know less than him don't take everything he says as gospel. Turbo side intake is just a tidy up for sound and more room under the bonnet, that's it.
@@EnkeiTenjin So a turbo side intake isnt necassary in terms of performance?
12345 6789 yes it is necessary 😂 it eliminates heat soak from the engine cross over, engines do not like the heat, especially in Australia during summer
@@goldberg7995 mate im just going off what they guy said up there "Turbo side intake is just a tidy up for sound and more room under the bonnet, that's it" doesn't sound too important to me but if its needed then ill go for it
12345 6789 it’s not ‘needed’ but it definitely helps, yes it does make the bay look a lot cleaner but it also help the engine from copping all the hot air from going across the engine
F6 rear bar and side skirts, Sunroof, Leather interior
Sunroof mod? You're crazy. No thanks. Asking for trouble.
Swipez what’s wrong with a sunroof?
@@goldberg7995 rust leaking water etc.
tle1977a not if you get someone to do it professionally lol
kind of silly upgrading rear set of brakes when most braking is done on the front
Lmao
This is the most spastic comment
First mod should be to clean the spare wheel.
Mod 1 for autos - EXTERNAL TRANS COOLER
I have a ls1 and I always beat vf ss I've stayed beside a maloo same with a G6 turbo and beat a AMG and the only thing to smash me was a F6
gotta love the sound of a ls tho..
No bov that’s great for trying to turn the turbo backwards and no valve springs upgrade great for high revs and must be a really happy dyno has it shit the bed yet
I drive a GU why is this in my recommendations?
ask Google/UA-cam
VibranceVFX ok boomer
Steve Smith Fkn Child
VibranceVFX you’re the one asking someone why their video is in their recommendations cob.. it’s a UA-cam algorithm. Clearly you were searching up other car videos or watched a falcon video and UA-cam suggested it. It’s not like the guy who made this video hacked your account and made it come up 😂
Steve Smith pfff ok boomer
Hey mate, ill be honest im not into new aussie cars. Nevertheless your content is very enjoyable and professional. Keep it up and I may even get into new falcons :))
zutututuuuu 😂
Hey bro , most of us on UA-cam started watching you with your n/a xr6 fg falcon journey which we all loved , so now your baging n/a fg falcons , come on bro I love my n/a xr6 falcon , personally I think that n/a barras sound better than the turbo wind up toys that sound shit , just my opinion , , best not to shit on your original bread and butter .😉
Tubo barras sound fine as long as ur not feeding air back through the turbo like a wanker
100% agree BC XR6
You never remove the blow off valve if you do this will damage the turbo due to pressure surge when you shut the throttle the pressure has no where to go so it back purges into the compressor wheel this damages the compressor the shaft bearings/bushs and the seals only an idiot would do this
Has been dis proven a million times
@@ir0nal3x97 it has not been disproven if it had no turbo manufacturer would use them blow off valves are there to relieve the damaging back pressure to the compressor wheel this damages the turbine blades and shaft I've used turbos since 1987 & damaged many due to back pressure
quick question - why do you always talk about your cars power in horsepower? We normally measure power in KW in australia. Horsepower is imperial and every time someone says how much HP they have, i have no idea what that is in KW unless i google a conversion. My fg makes 354KW with similar mods to yours. A tune and basic supporting mods definitely turns these into a whole different monster!
Kw to HP add 25% from memory.
@@jerryking7772 yea i know roughly the conversion but i was puzzled as to why an australian dude, making videos about his australian built car would be measuring his power in american imperial numbers. Couldn't possibly be to inflate the numbers so it sounds better?
We use KW, not horsepower. Killometers, not miles. Metric, not imperial etc.
Im not trying to be a jerk, its just a personal peev of mine.
@@richo1333 There are plenty of us old school guys still around that talk in horsepower and imperial sizes plus we know both. For eg i was in primary school when metric first came in and so when i entered the workforce as an apprentice engine reconditioner everything was still measured in imperial and it literally took decades for metric to completely take over as a lot of engines retained their imperial sizes even with bolts. I remember some fords had a mixture of imperial and metric bolts what a shambles that was.
Skrrrrt
what are the wheels ?
Rota grid wheel's
Things I'd do to an xr6t fg
1. Upgrade the icc to a kayhan android auto system
2. Wrap the bonnet, roof, and boot in black, I'd think that would look sick on your car
3. Upgrade the turbo for power
4. Tune to make 600hp
5. Xforce performance exhaust
Didn’t see manual transmission on the list
kyranoscopy why go slow?😉
Manual isn't for millennials. Sad but true.
Sour Words literally the dumbest thing I’ve ever read
New intake manifold
not needed... stock FG fine for even BIG hp
Yeh but looks shit
that sound you are hearing is called surge. not good for any turbo.
no
it's only bad if it's occurring under load and on throttle you spud
@@tassiedingo yes what you are saying is correct under load with the hot air going backwards through the turbo and being compressed again and increasing the temperature higher each time it dose that.
next time don't say spud. the comment was made for referance of the sound.
