Is this having the blacktop turbo setup?
Hey buddy, yes it will be going through a few phases...
Phase 1 - PROPER budget 1.8 zetec turbo...stock everything engine wise, Jenvey inlet, MTX75 Focus RS box, ERST Stage 2 or 3 turbo, standard Ford 2.0 zetec clutch, VEMS ECU, etc etc...if it breaks 150hp ill be happy as I haven't spent much on it to be honest and just want to hike up the 1.3ohv engine it currently has!
Phase 2 - Relatively budget build of a the 2.0/ST170 route, may upgrade turbo to something a bit more manly, bigger injectors, hopefully will be around the 300-350hp mark
Phase 3 - PROPER build - CGI block, steel crank, steel rods, Cosworth Racing pistons, tubular manifold (over the gearbox type) etc etc
, power unknown!
