Wild Ford XR6 turbo BARRA!

Welcome back to the track Karman. After a 4 year absense the Ford Barra powered XR6 turbo awoke first pass off the trailer. The Falcon is still a full weight car with electric glass and factory interior. Quickest pass for the day was an easy 9.0 at 151mph. The 4L turbo six is now using E85 fuel.

Funny as how people get on the xr6 turbo vids, see how ridiculously grunty they are then say how much better a supra or skyline is. That's actually a compliment even bringing that up because its means they are comparing a Japanese sports car to an Australian family sedan lol.

What else needs to be said? The mighty Aussie Barra is easily worthy of tangoing with the RBs and 2Js...

Mustang: I'm so fast
Barra: u wat

Insane. Wheelie bars are on the shopping list now.

it all comes down to personal preference, want a turbo? get a ford. Want an 8? get a holden.

VL Calais Turbo & XR6 Turbo - Best Australian cars built.

Aussie built Ford Barra 4L DOHC factory turbocharged inline six. These engines make anywhere from 240kW to 310kW in stock form.

The missus would have had to come out to the track with a new pair of duds if that was me driving lol.

Great car mate.

That was sweet love the launch and wheelie. That straight sounds good with the whistle of the turbo.

[firesquare]

I wish they would bring this car/motor combo to America. So wicked!

[benwan]

Get one imported my friend. make sure you get the FG Turbo 6 or FG Typhoon engine if you do.. all the issues were ironed out from earlier models by then.

[hughstan]

That is one angry Ford my friend!!! Love it..

I apologise for my last comment, I may have been a little harsh. I think I understand your problem. VYs and VZs look almost the same from the rear, which is probably the only part of the car that you ever see when you are driving your Falcon.

any turbo'd straight six is awesome
