Plans are to turbocharge the daily driver as well; my 'old' Torsen and Exedy Stage 1 from the grey beast will put down the power from the nearly brand new FSWerks Stage 2+ turbo and intercooler kit that came off that car as well. I had to spring for a new Cossie IM as it had to be modified to clear the power steering reservoir as well as a new SCT flasher, as well as new plumbing and fittings.
Luckily however, I will be slapping on my 'old' stealth exhaust as well as my 'old' 3" dp that I had on the grey beast. The GT28RS is nearly brand new as well. FSWerks has supplied me with a new rear VF engine mount along with 60# injectors; I learned from the first time around that the 42# injectors were starting to get taxed ~275whp. I'm going to be running wastegate spring (12-14lbs) rather than a BC so I should see around 265-280whp hopefully and without any boost rolloff.

This first post was basically cutting and pasting from a couple of different build threads I have on other focus forums so from here forward things will be less wooden and I can answer any questions you may have.

Thanks for viewing and warmest regards,
