Barra-Powered XW Ford Falcon

Josh Tuskin has owned his XW Ford Falcon since he was just 16 years old. These days the old 250ci six has been replaced by a turbo Barra combo that is pushing the old Falcon to mid-nines at 149mph. Subscribe to Street Machine for V8-powered good times goo.gl/DTXEnl

Man those engines FN ROCK!....and ROLL!

[@DaveHiggoHiggins]

I get all excited when I see the notification of a new video, then realize it's one I watched yesterday on Fullboost. ha ha. Waiting on the turbo taxi update!!

[@nikolamaodus302]

That's bloody sick

[@jimclarke1108]

Barra in all cars ))

[@truthseeker8483]

Who needs a V8? Those 6 cylinder Ford engines really produce some power when Turbo'd! Must be lighter than a V8 too I would think.

[@NickHey]

If he has only changed a few bits and pieces in that engine like the valve springs and gears as well as a new turbo, it sounds heaps cheaper than a worked V8 too

[@DaveHiggoHiggins]

I really love getting new vids from you guys, especially the turbo taxi project. Keep it up. That being said, are you going to keep releasing feature videos (on the same cars that fullboost does) a day after them?

[@STREETMACHINETV]

Higgo that wasn't the intention but yeah we did notice that they uploaded their video on this car yesterday

[@gottaloveit66]

Ol' Skool weapon!
