Super nice build. I'm a fan of the unconventional.

I read a while back about a Focus turbo kit that had the turbo mounted very low. So low that it needed an electric pump and reservoir to move the oil out of the turbo and back into the motor. I had to do this on my setup (probably could have avoided it if I mounted the turbo differently), just wondering if you will too.

What does one in a focus do for engine management?

naww my turbo is high enough for the oil to drain
