Hi all

I have not posted snce 2003 when I got my auII 220kw Herod xr8 in venom red (hence the username) but that's a long time ago. I recently took delivery of my FGX XR8 manual in kinetic blue. I have taken it to the boys at the horsepower factory to flash tune it, install a difillipo cat back exhaust and put in a i&in air filter. (Dyno run in photos) just want to say I love all my ford brothers and sisters and look forward to upgrading my car and sharing it with you all for many years to come!

Looks awesome, bro.

Luv it.

Hoping to pick up one of the last falcons later this year myself.

Hopefully we're still driving them in 2030.

Hi Jvenom! Welcome back and great to see you return after such a stretch! I'm only new here myself and got pretty much a dose of sarcasm from certain folk when I joined too. Seems to be a right of passage but I can't help think it unwise as who knows how many fail to return after a baptism of fire?! "Don't let the turkeys get you down" is the very old well worn saying!

That Kinetic Falcon of yours looks stunning. Wish I had the discipline to keep my cars looking that good mate! Love the plate too, you're on a winner with that combo!

Cheers, Brian.

Or wait until you’ve got something to say.

And a photo of an FGX XR8 is worth a thousand words.
