imagine throwing one of them engines into an xr6 and making it 4wd turbo.

that'd be a nice little project.

Niiiice idea! Almost an Aussie WRX equivalent (notice I DIDN'T say an Aussie GT-R eqiv'? The idea wouldn't equate to a Group A tourer...or could it?). Any takers?

245kW and 480Nm performance pack and a bonnet air inlet to signal the extra go.

It is available only as an all-wheel-drive, six-speed automatic.

a standard ford xr6t is around the 240kw mark anyway. would it be possible to use the drivetrain to make a standard xr6t 4wd?

if ford released an xr6t 4wd i'd buy one.

Got fuel bill?!

The Ford territory's are suprisngly good on fuel. 12.8 for the awd or 12.2 for the rwd.

No doubt being the turbo it will use slightly more but driven well it will return the same economy as its n/a version.

This has been proven to be true with the skylines and xrt fords so why should it be any different with the territory. :(

I can see myself building a pretty lame territory.

:( hehe..

So what the fuss about? a turbo tank is not a new thing.. Ever heard of a Nissan Patrol?? what a performance vehicle those are!! :(

Factory claimed 12L/100kms. tongue.gif

hehe.. I love the new average thing they have got going.. so if you do city driving expect about 16L/100km.. country, then maybe down to 10L/100km..

I think we all agree that claimed fuel usage is just that... claimed.. Actual will more often than not be much worse! However, as far as its direct competition goes, it should be a good package =)

Note: I'm NOT a Ford fan at all =D

The R32 RB20DET is claimed to have 10.5L/100km's. I used to achieve that with the stockish rb20det.

Even now after its been tuned, injectors replaced as the others were stuffed, o2 sensor replaced its now getting 10.6L/100km's with the rb30det.

Prior with the buggered injectors it was getting 13-14L/100km's towards the end.

The oldies V8 100series Landcruiser.. Rated at 16L/100km's, that gets 17L/100km's, and my old dear is a lead foot. She loves that toyo v8 growl. :(

I think the average is a fairly good indicator.

The Territory being only slightly heavier than the Falcon it shouldn't be much different, possibly highspeed cruise may due to aero thats about it.

The R32 RB20DET is claimed to have 10.5L/100km's. I used to achieve that with the stockish rb20det.

my R32 on its 2L did 15L/100km city driving.. about 11L/100km highway. Piece of crap 2L :( there was a massive difference between highway and city, and i drove it nearly all city.. as would your average Territory family car.

So I think the country driving averaging out the shitty city fuel economy is misleading..and it should be broken down as per the old days.

Around town my RB25DET will average 12-14L/100k's easily, not sure what it's claimed usage is. That to me seems about right for a car of it's weight and with a regular PSSHT =)

Woops, getting off topic =) Yeah Turbo Territory... Yet another over powered family car =\ I'm gonna need to mod my car up just to keep speed with traffic =\

I only ever drive mine locally... No open road.

15L per 100 is pretty damn bad.. To the usual 50litres thats around 330-340km's per tank.

Depending on how much I am stuck up it I get no lower than 410-430kays per 50litres. Thats a lot of spirited hills driving.

General driving to work/uni and back up to the oldies I get pretty much spot on 470km's per tank.

The rb20det was pretty much the same.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
