Default Fastest stock N/A XR6 Model?

Hey,

Just wanted to know what is the fastest stock N/A XR6 model, from the e-series through to the BF are...like what times and stuff.

Would it be the EB, ED, EF, EL , AU, BA or BF?

It'd be good to hear, say from the fastest and which is the slowest.

Be interesting to find out as most you guys are avid ford followers. :

Thanks.

Stock standard times rate the BF quickest, and the EB slowest, with the rest pretty much in new to old order. Of course, manuals will be quicker than the 4 speed autos, but the BF 6 speed auto still leads the pack.

How fast are the BF's 0-100 and 1/4?

Ive heard that the EF/EL XR6's can go as fast as mid to low 15's stock...thats the manuals...

it would be good to see the Motor magazine 1/4 mile times for each E series XR6's , that would give a very good idea.

Eb and Ed xr share the same motor (or should i say the Ed uses the EB motor ;) ) and are very close in weight so id say there would be fleas d.ck between them..

Ef and El have different ignition . ie ef had coil packs and El had dizzy.. So there could be a bit more of a difference there...

Au had Vct and non vct... with the vct being more powerfull so therefore quicker? (if anyone can prove otherwise please do.!)

Ba-Bf no one cares.... :togo:

I'd have to say the EB is the fastest,, they are the lightest by enough to matter imho..

if the EA was an mpi then i would beleive it! my EA is a 5spd CPI and i gotta say i was bout a car length behind an EFXR6.
BTW there is a large differnece between a CPI and MPI EA 1/4 speeds

Sorry i shouldve made it clear that times between EA S and EF XR6 were with a EA multipoint. The CPFI would be slower of course.
EA MULTIPOINT: 139kw.
EA CPFI............: 120kw.

I'd agree with Racecraft, as the EF/EL put on bit of kerb weight (1515k versus 1451kg) whilst gaining a mere 3 kW of power. The manual/MPI EA is up there in performance terms, but wears no XR6 badge so isn't relevant here.

As for AU, I don't believe there's any significant performance difference between HP or VCT... what the VCT gains in power, it loses in the weight of its IRS system.

In general stock form the VCT was slower than the HP in all respects.
