Re:2.0 Zetec turbo
my brother has a focus zx3, MBRP SS exhaust w/ K&N Drop in (makes the same power as a AEM).

The intercooler is a 30" length X 6" height X 3" wide, 8 row, FMIC with 2 1/2" a inlet and outlet. It was the largest size I could fit under the bumper cover without causing clearence problems with the stock foglights.

The only real problem I had to work around was some clearence issues with the oil seperator/PCV valve assembly. You know the one mounted on the front of the engine block. That box sticks out pretty far (about 2 1/2"). I originally planned on using the internal wastegate on the T-3, but there was not enough clearence between the oil seperator/PVC assembly and internal wastegate housing or the wastegate actuator rod. Relocating the turbo manifold flange would put the turbo right up against the radiator......so eventually I had to go with the external wastegate. Other than that, the whole install went pretty smooth.
Good luck on your project..........
BTW.........thanks for the compliments AbaZ.......

Re:2.0 Zetec turbo
Thanks Jono83,
I actually have made a pretty detailed
E-Manage "how-to" for the Zetec Cougar.
It includes pictures and the EEC-V PCM to E-Manage wiring.

The signal amperage from the Ford wasted spark ignition system puts out a spark out (SPOUT) signal that is much too high for the E-Manage to process. If you try to hook up the SPOUT signal directly to the E-Manage, you'll end up frying the E-Manage ignition circuit. You can build an ignition module using a darlington array IC and a Mitsubishi ignitor module, but I think you'd be better off using a seperate ignition control device such as the MSD
DIS-2 programmable ignition controller. There is also the J&S Safe Guard, which is similar to the MSD.......but can also retard ignition timing based on a knock sensor.
