    I have 2 XR4ti's and I can plainly state that the turbo lag with a front mount intercooler is negligible. I can also state that the A/C can still be used with the front mount cooler. Besides that, it was fun to see another XR4 on a video.

    In 1984 got my first ride in a brand new that day Black XR4i 2.8 V6 and went for a 120mph blast, I marvelled at the little Led display that showed a door opened or it was cold outside hadn’t see anything like that before, plus the smell of a new car and the sound of an EFI V6, happy Dayz.

    Don’t Americans cut massive holes out of the parcel shelf for speakers? Even the escort had an intact parcel shelf.

      Not nearly as common as you think. But considering the piddly speakers installed in the XR4....😉

    I remember bombing down the A9 in an XR4I south of Inverness with my mate doing 120 with me hanging out of the sunroof with a camcorder. We're talking late 80s camcorder. Lol

      It would’ve done 140 without that camera out of the roof 😂

    I don’t like this guy. He’s too much of a presenter. Ed and Elvis seem a little awkward infront of the camera. Like mad scientists who have been let out of the garage for a bit. This fella is too well polished infront of the camera for me…

    Why would you remove the intercooler mate? Your IATs must be running through the roof, making it produce less power wth...

    Removing the intercooler was not a good idea.....
