Hi a mate of mine has an XR6 turbo ute and it seems to be struggling for fuel or air at over 3500 rpm its pretty well stock just with baffles cut out of exhaust and a BOV all mods were down when car was new and its just happened all of a sudden he has taken it to ford the say the cant find anything wrong with it the reckon its the exhaust mods

Any ideas

First thing that came to my head was traction control...?

doesnt have traction control its 2003 mk 1 i've ordered him some new plugs so will give that a go see if it helps

just for anyone reading on though later on, was it your coil packs?

Don't think we'll ever know since he last posted 2 years ago.
