All you need to do is take the pipe off and look inside it and you will see that the fins are fake for the first 2. Meaning that you can cut the pipe in half from this point. Once cut use a stanley knife to cut the fins down. Now you have an adaptor pipe that will fit over the XF TB and a 3� stainless pipe. Joel. Cheers for that mate, now I know what to use. Good thinking to use the afm attachment for the TB end, I would never have thought of that myself. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

So this would help increase intake air flow...

I found a XF TB on eBay for sale what price would u find one for at a wreckers. This one is $41 is that too much. QUIKVL

I haven't been reading this thread too much but basically the 180hp from the mod was lies?

why don't you read the thread...

ahh fine.. I'll do it the hard way Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

where the dyno sheet man can u put it up so we can see this in the only way there guys are going to belive u also have u raced a vn 5ltr or vr or wrx and how did u go.

The dyno sheet is on page 2 buddy. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I want to see a quarter mile time of your car Joel.

S*** i put my car on the dyno with xtractors, full exhaust, advanced timing, pulp and only got 102. hp atw!!!! The only prob with my car is leaky injector other then that she was running sweet!!! Can anyone clarify if this is the right output of the N/A auto???

doesnt sound 2 bad jay, sum vls just wont giv u power til u rebuild, it isnt always that easy 2 break 100rwkw, u might get a bit more power out of tuning and other little things. guyz, the dyno sheet on page 2 looks a little too smoothe to be real, most cars will get a decent amount of spiking in power around low to mid but this one seems a little bit too clean. Joel, if i were u i';de b a little bit suspicious, so please stop being so confident in a mechanic u probably dont even know and get urself a second dyno from sum1 else, im not saying this cxause we dont believe you but more so u will know yourself for sure that way too.

Well I'm not believing the 180 from the mod. 103hp, sounds about right I guess, with a leaky injector and an auto. Could be better of course.

Yeah one dyno doesnt prove much, especially on the internet!

Can anyone clarify if this is the right output of the N/A auto??? being that you got 76kw at the wheels and standard is about 86kw i would say no that is not right..
