EB Barra Swapped Falcon | How Much Power? How Much Did It Cost? 

Don't ever take negative comments to heart mate, what you have done is awesome. I am learning heaps from your videos so just give them a gentle middle finger and keep making videos 👍

There’s nothing better then a Chineseium Hong Kong hot air eBay turbo brother, especially where you can essentially swap out after it’s surprisingly long lifetime. Love your work mate!!

Mate, thanks heaps for putting this together. I too have had the endless supply of slack jawed mud witted keyboard warriors sling their idiocy addled advice at me and all it does now is make me laugh as they’re essentially advertising publicly how wrong they are. Absolutely love your car mate 😎🤙

Some of us don’t have a motza, an EBay turbo if that’s all you can afford is fine. Great work mate and thanks for sharing your journey.

I was going to turbo my fg xr6 but the cost is just ridiculous. I decided to do all the possible mods i could without boosting it such as growler cold air intake, wildcat 770 extractors with high flow cat,into a 3 inch xforce exhaust system. 440cc fuel injectors ,walbro fuel pump,fuel pressure regulator, and a dyno tune. N/ A it is putting out 290 rwhp. Thats good enough for me. Turbochargers put a lot of stress on all parts of the engine,driveline,brakes,things wear out heaps quicker than a N/A car.

330kw with an eBay turbo? What are people shitty about if he's going to upgrade it anyway that's an AWESOME result mate great work love the channel 👍

Legend for doing actual truthful costings!!

Good stuff mate, been getting into Barra stuff a bit more after a couple of dudes at work have turbo ba’s. Picked up a bf1 xr6 manual Ute not long ago as a project, plan on turbo converting it and seeing how long the 5spd lasts. I’m in Geelong also, and actually went to CRC with ya back in the day 👍

There is another RU-vid on about $1200 for 12 sec quarter mile with a $400 BA shared by 2 blokes from Qld, they used the el- cheapo turbo like you to achieve their goal, end of the video they said we'll park it in the paddock for now, maybe see if we come up with an 8 secs plan next. Remember an EB ex-taxi converted to LPG of course, purchased by the 3 drivers from the owner when the 4 yrs was up and the latest info was that they had 800,000Klm on the clock and on a trip from Syd to Canberra it blew-up...at last. This is a preview video on your FANTASTIC RU-vid Oct 29 2021 Video "Comparing Ford Barra Green Tops " a prize winner and much appreciated by many Barra owners in Australia (reading the positive comments), We have a BA sedan and BF Ute Stock LPG Green Tops 230,000 Klm and 380,000 Klm respectively. Love the torque in top gear they hang on and don't kick down like petrol. Wish the Australian owner-drivers of the Barra Falcons had been trained-up on the use of the sports gear change. Be good to see your Video some day on your exploits on the Autobahn, you are destined for a much bigger and faster world. Cheers & Thanks

great build buddy I'm around the outer metro Melbourne area and hopefully i see this beast around sometime i've had lot's of e series falcons and loved every one of them but unfortunately Barras weren't around then lol now i've got a mostly stock(for now) ba xr6t and they're such a great motor. but trust me i build performance exhaust systems all day at work and i'm on my 3rd variation of exhaust system on my car from the last 3 weekends under it and if you swap the muffler and hotdog around put the muffler at the back and the hotdog will rumble in the centre section but still won't be overly loud you'll just get a wicked deep note out of it and if you're going to do the diff go with a truetrac they are open wheelers so you can got around corners but fully locked under acceleration that was the best mod i've done so far along with the Ims twin bush diff hat very fun to drive although they can be a little noisy it's well worth it

Great video, I have learned a lot from watching this one and the others and the cost video is very helpful indeed.

Reckon a TCI Automatic Transmission Kit,TH400, to Ford 4.0l Barra would do the trick for 400KW 4 speed auto?

Dude! You should know that those keyboard mechanics/I don't have a life/my Mrs is an Internet image, know everything, they're experts man. Anyway, thanks for your videos, doing it, rather than talking (typing) about it.

Great result !! Thanks for the honest cost breakdown !! Have done things like 12s for $1200 before ( including the car ) ,BUT as soon as you do a conversion the cost just skyrockets !! Have built a B series wagon that ran low 11s at 124mph , so with your 120mph trap speed you should easily get into the 11s if the 60foot times drop a bit. What diff ratio is in it atm ??

people get so butthurt about parts who gives an uck 😂😂 your build your rules enjoy man

Where did you get the bell-housing from?

Great video I was thinking about turbo my ED wagon either sohc or dohc tho 13k is something I don't have I can dream tho 🤙

Great work mate 💪

Good video dan ive got a stock g6e turbo 50th scared if i mod it it will loose value aha

Doze any one stroke a Barra motor

could have done a windsor for half the cost & a much better sound. ah well.

I know that exhaust place, got a hole in mine and considering getting mine done there. Did you get a stainless one?

330KW from ebay? thats tough as. Just think if you bought an LS engine you'd be paying more than 6.5k for one, plus the other shit that goes with it. Not to mention that NA LS engines make like 170rwkw... haha so then you need even more $ to actually make power! Nah mate you did great!!! on ya and up the barra!!!

Good job .

Nice!

hey mate im thinking about doing similar to my 89 nc fairlane, why did you use the na loom? and would the barra bolt up to the borg warner trans in the nc ?

I wonder if I could LS the Corvette for that much 🤔

Please allow an additional $10 for a decent haircut. Kind regards everyone

Cheaper to sell the shit box eb and buy an fg xr6t at least then you end up with a decent car :)
