what would be needed to run anti lag on focus rs would a gt 28 turbo hold up or would it need a shaft

 

Are we talking full on hardcore rally anti-lag for 30psi at idle.

or do you just want the flames and noise?

The rally sytle one will probably melt your roller bearing housing.

 

30 psi no way mate too hard core. but do want to use at green lights

 

why dont you get lauch control fitted instead ?

A good aftermarket ecu would work well, If you dont want full bore ALS and just big pop bangs then the turbo would have no problems at that level.

what sort of ecu maufactures would i need be lookin at like aoutronic?
so i can jus plug and play?
it cant be that easy can it?

 

omex,emerald,pectal,autotronic can run als not only that but can run launch control.
The standard black oak ecu can be a bit of a pain to map,
the only down side to removing the standard ecu, you will loose the pats but a toad/clifford will sort that problem out.
you will need a malam shaft for the turbo and will need to check the rest of the turbo is up to scratch to cope with the extra heat.
you might want to run some kind of heat shields to keep under bonnet temps down and to cut out heat soak

 

In relation to aftermarket ecu's on the Focus RS, so far the only standalone unit that has been proven to work with the FRS is the Autronic SM4 - Rob @ SCC / Mike Gurney have mapped a few now & Mark Shead @ MAD has also done a couple FRS on Autronic as well i'm sure

A guy on the RSOC tried both Omex & Pectel on his FRS & neither could be wired into the car properly & he eventually changed to SM4 as well

With the Autronic sm4 i've got on mine, the standard factory ecu's are still retained on the car to control things like the alarm, but everything related to the engine management, etc, is run off the sm4

At the original poster, you really do want to think hard before going standalone ecu on the FRS as you're looking at the best part of Ł3000 for the unit, fitting, etc, plus you have to put together your own custom wiring loom from scratch so it's definately not "plug & play"

 

cheers guy for the info

 

My car runs Omex 710 and I have plenty of friends with Omex on there Foci (some RS), all wired in and running perfectly.

 

Anti lag on the focs RS with a GT28, i think would be pointless, as there is not enough lag to justify it, just get a good aftermarket flash or piggyback chip no need to go for full independent management,

i beleive the dreamscience has a launch control function, but the dastek unichip is a good all round chip and has a lot of features such as launch control etc, and can be remapped everytime you make further modifictions to your engine, and is more than capable of handlig very high power focus RS, it is the management i am currently using in my Focus RS, and it is sitting above 400bhp and about to go further,
