Default power of e-series XR's

I'm just wondering what the power of all the e-series XR range are?
i know my EB XR6 has 161kw
the EB XR8 has 165kw
so how about the EF and EL XR's?

cheers

i just checked www.fpv.com.au and the EF/EL XR8 have 185kw.

so the XR6's arent much different from EB to EF/EL. would i be correct in saying the ED has the same motor as the EB XR6?

theres a few EF XR6's getting around Bendigo and they're bloody quick!

nope, the ef xr8 is 170kw from memory, so was the EL, then the EL update xr8 brought in the 185kw motor, using the explorer manifold. The EL XR6 had 162kw. Not 100% sure on the others..

I think the XR had a slightly better flowing exhaust, but I will stand corrected.

yep you're right mate, the ghia was muffled a bit more as it was the luxury model and Ford thought they'd prefer it that way..
