all good mate haha.
yeah can't wait for more pics mate.
whats the plan for the exhaust i see you have dual outlet rear bar im looking into a dual exhaust but cannot find anyone with an off the shelf dual system for the fg xr6 utes so am thinking of getting the back half of a herrod xr8 ute system and trying to match it with the front half of their xr6 ute system.

who are you using to tune it mate, when i was ringing around hardly any workshops in briz had tuned let alone installed centrifugal superchargers on the 6 cylinders bullet cars at yatala was the only one from memory.

Exhaust im goin pacemaker 4490 with 3 inch straight through, deleted cat, 1 muffler and 1 resonator split at the diff to two pairs of 2 1/2in drift pipes :) should have a good grumble to it....Ive got a mate here on the goldy thats done the exhaust on every car ive ever owned, he's the gun and good price i pay $750 from the extractors back....

I know that chiptorque here on the gold coast have tuned supercharged ba falcons before i just dont know how they go price wise will call them up tomorrow and get a quote on a tune.

Ill post some more pics of the interior of the car tomorrow i got it pretty decked out with premium colour icc and a mac mini installed in centre console ;)

man i cant wait to do the exhaust system on mine properly yours sounds sooooo good haha i keep putting off pacemakers for other mods cause im worried about the check engine light coming on due to the o2 sensors not reading correctly after the exhaust is installed but i think i need to just bite the bullet cause i want mine sounding like yours haha.

you should consider a cam upgrade man then that thing would sound even more gorgeous and have even more guts haha.

does this guy do just custom exhausts from scratch or do you reckon he would be able to t up the modified herrod system i was talking about? cause i dont really know anyone for exhaust work like i know there are a few guys around but i havent looked into it yet too much, but will be looking soon just gotta get my rear bar ordered and painted and a fifth 20" advanti rim as i scraped the hell out of my front left after having them on only two weeks haha im sure thats a record.

dont know anyone for rim repairs by chance do you? lol.
the interrior sounds pretty sweet man. :D

It sounds loud and drony when your driving slow, but when you put the foot down its good.
Ive been told to put a restrictor on it, it will stop the drone while keeping the speed :)

For the 1st few weeks of the exhaust i never got a o2 sensor, but as of the last week, its come on -.- so i have no idea how to fix that, or what it means -.-

definately keen man will Probs hit you up in a few months for a black one man that is a good price. Is there any reprogramming to do to the car when you do it like i heard you have to match the number of the new icc to the car electronically or it wont work. Not sure how true that is. You going to power cruise mate?

Yeah when you get a new ICC you need to take it to ford to reprogram, all ICC units are VIN locked to the car the come from and when you replace yours it needs to be matched to your ECU. Usually costs between $80 and $120 at a ford dealership. Was gonna go to power cruise but ive got a s13.5 drift car that i was gonna drive but its off the road getting a new kit and paint job and wont be ready so prob gonna give it a miss this year....might just have to power cruise my local industrial areas once this chargers on hahaha :)
