A build recipe for a sleeper Barra | fullBOOST

Built from a crashed FPV Typhoon donor car, Shane's Ford BF Falcon SR is a lot quicker than it looks thanks to a transplanted turbocharged Barra six engine and ZF trans. The car still retains a stock turbo and exhaust system. Tuned by Maxx Performance.

Hey guys! Is there anyway I can get intouch with Shane to ask some questions!?

[@brendo7363]

I'm a simple bloke, I see a barra vid, I cast it to my neighbor's unsecured smart TV

[@corporalpunishment1133]

That would be sooo awesome if he was some kinda full-on Holden nut that drives a V8 ute and has a southern cross tattoo.

[@johndouglas1848]

[@Seymour_butts]

Now that's a grocery getter, incognito weapon 👍

[@3800S1]

Just goes to show, it's not all in the power when building a quick car. It's all in the optimum setup and looks like this guy has nailed it pretty good. PS. I laughed at the end with the brakes. We have 2 BF utes in the family and the front brakes always warp and have problems. Also that hard falcon brake pedals they are known for makes them a pain for daily driving.

[@bunky8077]

Sweet build, always thought a Bf Ghia with turbo drivetrain would be an awesome daily The shorter diff ratio sounds like it works well, it gets out of the hole pretty good

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Love a good recipe that works

That’s impressive Barra turbos absolute torque machines I love owning my xr6 turbo it has 412kw (550hp) and it’s perfect for the street Id love to see a 10s from this thing 💪🏻👌🏻

Sounds like you don’t have one. “I love owning” lol bullshit

[@94toxic94]

Barras are overrated af lol. Torque for days yet still go like shit lol. Hope that gearbox, shit drivetrain and unrealiable engine holds on at that power lol. No barra is touching turbo lsa's

[@mat334]

@@94toxic94 lol that’s very narrow minded any car can beat or make more power be more reliable and run a faster quarter mile with the right mods and dollars spent on it I’m sure the are plenty of lsa turbos out there that would beat most cars but to think any lsa turbo is better then every Barra turbo out there is very far from the truth

[@strider5119]

@@94toxic94 You're talking about an engine that's the same price as a turbo barra, then adding a turbo to it. Apples and oranges

[@94toxic94]

@@strider5119 lol stock for stock the lsa destroys the barra. So for a barra to be quick it needs to be modded up, to make 400rwkw+ itlk cost you $12-$15k minimum lol. So yes a lsa is same price as a barra turbo maybe but barras are crap stock. So go chuck money into it to make it somewhat quick, do the same to the lsa and boom, it blows the doors off any barra. You pay the same amount on money for a barra or lsa, whether that's stock for both or modifying both, the lsa wins. Also not to mention that let's just say the barra is cheaper, well rest of the car still shits itself. You'll have to get a built box, motor, tailshaft and few other bits so that right there will cost another $20k+ easy lol. You don't need to touch anything in a hsv or the latest ssv, just mod the engine and you're good to go. Sick of seeing people thinking barras are cheap when they're not. If you going to spend that much money just buy a better car lol

I think the mph thing is just tyres and driver, I have a 410kw g6e, I've only been to the strip once and I ran a 12.2 at 120mph but my 60ft was 2.1, the car is a lot more capable but with the tyre i had a 245/40-18 chinese ad08 clone and my lack of practice launching cars I was really struggling to get off the line, the 12.2 was just start in 2nd and throttle it for the first 60 foot before shifting to 3rd and flooring it, no brake boosting or antilag

10.96 last night. 👍

[@raddeal1]

So close that’s pain

[@Jake_Hamlin]

Should've mentioned how much the donor car/driveline cost, kinda important if anyone wanted to compare the build and it's cost. Even before covid and being crashed, the Typhoon driveline for BF series gotta be worth alot, especially considering the rods/turbo/trans. The factory BTR transmissions are crap.

[@fullboost]

It didn't cost anything it was from a wrecked car.

[@Fletch889]

What do you want to compare the build cost to? This whole car and combo cost me less than buying a standard xr6 turbo. But I'm only trying to show that anyone with an xr6 turbo can go decent times with a simple set-up. A good tuner is the key to get the most out of a simple package.

@@shannonr8355 the wrecked typhoon was a bit over $5k. Kept the driveline and sold the rest of the parts off the car and made 90% of my money back. It wasn't free but definitely owes nothing close to the cost of buying a stock bf xr6 turbo

Now I'm sure if he wanted to there could be some "weight reduction" that could be applied to this car? A nice diet might squeeze a 10 perhaps? I wouldn't dare touch the exhaust! I love how quiet it is! I would imagine this dude loves chopping young dudes in their imports lol
