Default Focus St225 engined race car

Hi, I am building a space framed Puma with an st225 engine in the back.
I have Omex 710 ECU, mountune inlet with a 76mm manual Jenvey throttle body fitted. The exhaust has been made by JAC in Notts.

I have a RS500 sized intercooler mounted in the rear and have 76mm pipe work to suit. Will the standard turbo cope with this or do I need to reduce the hose and intercooler?

Do you think the mods will be Ok and what sort of power should I be looking at?

The car is due to go and the loom made and then mapped in a couple of weeks.

Cheers

Paul

Sounds interesting, any pics? How is the intercooler mounted? Will it get enough air mounted at the back?

Hi,

Will try and up-load some. The intercooler fits what was the rear window area. I have had trouble getting ST225 drive shafts.
