1998 Ford EL TICKFORD XR6

Bought the car when i was 19, started playing with performance a year later and today it's a 278rwkw 780Nm pleasure cruise running 12psi of Vortech V2 SQ boost. Future plans are a Water to Air Intercooler, 3" exhaust system, then maybe up the boost a touch. Later on I'll be fitting the 18"x8" WORK MEISTER M1R's i purchased end of last year.
In the end the Work wheels that were made to fit didn't fit. The motor dropped a valve. Got rebuilt. Lunched the timing chain. Got rebuilt. Dropped a valve the next day. Got sold for $3,000. I'd spent approximately $50,000 on it in the 9 years of owning it. I should've bought an XR8 the day I got my full licence :D
