REDTO4's 1986 Ford Fairmont REDTO4's 1986 Ford Fairmont
Here is my 86 XF Fairmont Ghia with the original 250 4.1 EFI Crossflow Inline 6 under the hood. A set of Pacemaker tuned length extractors are fitted with a 3" pipe back to the 2.5" high flow cat then a 2.5" pipe back to the 2.5" straight through muffler with a 2.5 inch tail pipe sounds awesome but also highly illegal. Also the old 3 speed auto wasn't good enough for me so a nice T5 manual gearbox was added to get the 2.77 LSD to smokin nicely.

NOTE
This car is soon to be up for sale if anyone is looking for one let them no it will have a new clutch, new tyres on polished ghia rims and any dints, rust etc all removed before sale.

i found a place that will do the turbo kit if i do the motor myself then it will be 2500 to finish it, i'm going to do the motor my self, running 265 hemi rods with pistons to suit, 660cc injectors with bigger fuel pump solid cam and a steel head gasket, the turbo is a T04 once its finished it'll run 8-10psi standard and 15-18 when i want to give it a run should have about 200-220kw, the fella where i'm going to get it done said my 5 speed will hang on not ssure but we'll see, laters bro
