Ford territory = over 1,000HP

I’m getting a ford territory soon

I watched a few YouTube videos, I saw a turbo territory pushing 900HP

I’m getting a awd territory with my friend he be getting same year as me

We want make it for all things, like camping, 4x4 & then maybe like traveling Australia

I want to slap on a twin turbo and make over 1,000HP on mine, i will indefinitely be carrying extra Jerry cans with fuel, cause i know I am a very heavy lead foot :joy:

Who knows if I can make a Barra engine hit 1,500HP / 2,000HP?
I know Barra isnt fool proof it can break but it is pretty much immortal when it comes to pushing its limits

What else can I use to make it faster? Without it breaking.

1 please for my bronco )

As an American who has never even heard of this engine. I am widely intrigued. Australia only? What do I search for more info

It’s a 1.8L turbo ecoboost. I haven’t watched the video OP watched but 900hp in this package is likely hugely unreliable

@Roger
You should watch the video then because you’re completely wrong. Absolutely nothing in common with the ecoboost platform. Barra came in displacements between 3-4L as a straight six. Turbo variants were in the Falcon and Territory pushing out 300-400 hp

Yes the Barra is a truly solid engine.

For those mericans out there this is a 4l inline 6 cylinder NA engine generally.

There has been a few turbo versions of this even the Territory had a turbo version of this in the day.

But - 1000hp yea I can’t see that happening and not destroying the engine you’ll need a red top barra engine. This has the most chance of surviving.

They can make mad power just not sure you want to be stuck up wop wop Creek with a blown engine!

I always called them “the 2JZ from down under”

@Jasmine
What’s ‘4l’ mean?

It should have been 4L for 4 liters.

4 litre engine used the small l not the big L

I’m guessing 4 litre.

What can these make reliably? Do they lean towards high torque or high revs?
600hp reliably is more than enough for 90% of activities…

The red headed valve cover versions are designed for boost and can at stock run 450hp, i belive there is no problem with hitting 600hp

Like anything once you push the envelope reliability falls but I’ve seen units push well over 1000hp.

As these engines are no longer made, they are now getting expensive.

They are all about torque. Mine only revved to 5500 but it had solid torque right through the rev range. Mine was mostly stock and around 600nm. Down under they are know as 10 seconds for 10k

I’ve been wanting to cram one in my Taurus SHO. It’s such a badass engine!

16

Absolutely no disrespect meant but, how old are you?

17

Yall get all the cool fast car shit cause you’re constantly running from wildlife.

I dont want your giant spiders and saltwater crocodiles, but dammit I want one cool ford product

18

Running a stock bottom end 600hp barra here in an FG Falcon, to reach 900+hp you will need to spend easily anywhere from 30-50 thousand (reliabilty may mean more) including the additional driveline, trans and supporting parts, tunes and other bits and pieces.

I’ve spent about 15 thousand to reliably make the 600hp with a stock ZF trans, but it’s a steep curve from there.

If you have questions let me know.

@Levi
Thx

If you try that, you’re gonna blow your engine. It is not designed for that much boost, it’s gonna require some really expensive internals to handle such a power load, and an even more expensive transmission to be able to put the power down to the wheels
