i dont know about the 300whp, but i'm sure you can get 190 out of thoes engies with 7psi.

but thats saying 190whp out of 7lbs. the ford fofocus has 135 to the crank stock. thats like 110-115 to the wheels or somethting. so hes tryin to say hes gettin 80whp from 7lbs.....i just cant believe that, but im sure im wrong....just lookin for others opinions.

its close enough, sp maybe he has some other mods to give him 10hp, i'm sure that he's only getting like 60hp out of that turbo at 7psi...what is definetly not true is the 300whp, i dont think a zetec engine woud handle that.

that's weak.. my friend slapped on a homemade turbo he has a t3/t4 with a bit starion intercooler running a 5th injector ran 13.502 at 103.94mph in a focus

his dyno was 220 whp and 240 ft/lbs torque

sad thing is.. a factory recall that he went in to get done, ford turned him down because he wasn't elidgable to get it... a couple weeks later.. his car catches fire and the car's toast =*(

the problem was the positive and negative wires for the batteries are on the same cord.. sperated by a small piece of rubber... if the rubber happens to have corroded it would touch and cause a fire =*(
or something like that

poor poor focus they were looking forward to 12s next year
