I put in a tickford intake into my XR6II yesterday, even though there wouldnt have been much if any power increase the acceleration is heaps smoother.
Next mod: pacemaker 4480's here I come. |

You can probably hear a little more air suction from the front of the car too.
 Let us know how the Pacies come along.

i recently added a ba/bf xr6 turbo snorkel and also noticed better and smoother acceleration...also a handy by-product has been improved fuel economy yaaaaaa!.... it also makes it easier to get the missus to allow me to spend money on my car if it saves fuel.
