hmmm this sight would do. if u ask me dump the 6 and throw in a 351, gets done all the time or if u cant be ****ed just whack a turbo or super charger on it. or if u are a budgo bloke looking for cheap fast go bits then go through the old process that is answered every day,
intake (bigger better breathing induction, pod filter, cold air intake)
exhaust (extractors, bigger 'not to big' exhaust system)
carby (if it was not fuel injected)
cam (gets **** movin)
better breathing head (or port and polish)
chip it or get it flash tuned(u can do that on xf's hey?)
thermo fans (frees the crank up so it doesnt have to power a poxy fan, couple of HP in there)
fully sik 5 inch muffler tip (you'll probably lose HP, but will gain awsomeness)
20 inch rims (probably make ur car slower mathematically but who cares?)
200 kgs of body kit (power to weight ratio will be worse but the aero dynamics will help u corner like all 'dem skylines)
6 ft wing (to keep all that power to the ground)
if u cant afford a turbo never worry buy a fake blow off valve!! you'll fool all the 13 yr old school kids at lunch time!!!
