what boost pressure do std focus rs make on std internals
what boost pressure do std focus rs make on std internals in psi
and what engine spec are they running to get 200bhp from std ?
what bits will be need to get this from a silver top zetec mondeo ?
was planning on using rs focus bits turbo etc ?

would it be save to run that amout of boost 13 psi on a std
silver top with std internals
what parts will be need to get that sort of power ?
front mounted intercooler
t25 or t28 turbo
exhaust manifold (rs focus or tubular one)
custom exhaust system cat back
highflow cat
injectors (which ones will be need also they need to be able to get 330bhp)
fuel rail
fse boost valve reg
dv/bov (which one ?)
rs focus tb
rs focus tb deflector and seal
unichip/dream science chip or after market management (mega squirt for eg)
is there anything else that i have missed iam on a budget to
also i have obx vernier pulleys
and fast road cams kent 282 can i use them or not ?
i do plan evently to run 2.1 bottom end with c20let pistons and h - sec rods and apr rod bolts and up the power to 330bhp

it would be possible to hit 200hp on standard internals...but for how long i aint too sure...
i would recommend getting low comp pistons or atleast Calibra turbo pistons for 7.8:1 CR and 200hp will be a doddle!
If you insist on running a stock engine...i would say run a T3 turbo or a standard FRS turbo (GT25?) and get the biggest intercooler you can find to help keep the ACT's down to help stop det...run OFAB on nice injectors (you can run upto 400cc injectors on OFAB) and get it mapped by someone (like Stu) who knows exactly what they are doing
if i were you...i would seriously consider the Calibra turbo pistons on stock rods (need to be modified to accept the pistons)...and my spec would be (with 330hp in mind)
Standard cylinder head
Re-seated/rebuilt head
standard cams
Calibra turbo pistons (7.8:1)
modified stock rods (maybe even shot peened)
HUGE intercooler - Cossie 4x4 for example
OFAB management
400cc injectors
Stage 3 T3 turbo (or a GT25)
RS1800 inlet manifold
RS1800 TB
Denso ITV22 plugs
Mondeo coilpack with Original Ford plug leads (8mm)
block bored out to accept pistons
block machined for oil return and breather
either an RST exhaust manifold or one imported from the states
not an expensive parts list...but the overall cost will keep creeping up and up

wanted to use a rs foci manifold std
and t25 what boost do i run with that ?
could i run the focus fuel rail and injectors with that to
wanted to keep std mondeo intake manifold and fit the the rs focus throttle body and deflector
and run a huge front mounted cooler
was looking at calibre pistons for a while as they run a comp ratio of 7.4.1
and measure in at 86mm as the zetec block is 84.8
which will take cap from 1998 -2045 2.1
so it be safe to run 200-330 bhp with those pistons on std rods
but will have to run apr rod bolts ?
were could i get the c20let pistons from ?
what about cams and pulleys
as i have both sitting at home waiting to go in
i have seen the bd10 spec zetec turbo one's to would they be any good?
std head? i thought i would be better to run a stage 1,2,3 head as with the zetec head can get as much 30bhp increase
so mods to the head would be
bigger valves
port and polish
and gasflown
with uprade valve guide (ie bronze)
good or bad idea ?
block machined for oil return and breather
ofab management is rs turbo right ?
didn't really want to go that route
is there another route which will work with the std wiring loom of the mondeo and ecu so i could run a chip
or would i have to run something like mega-squirt ?
as for map where would i go as i live in cornwall
the only people down this way are ap motors
alan jefferys dont want to travel miles out may way either
if i lived up country bit more would go and see stu for sure
just getting idea's put together bouncing idea's from other people too
cheers bassboy will take info aboard and go through it

boost figures cannot just be given...too many factors...ACT's, fuel type, CR, turbo, spark plugs, etc etc but i would say 15-20psi would even be achievable if calibra pistons are used....but its down to your mapper!
the mondeo inlet is the plastic one right? black one? if so it should be ok but i would HIGHLY recommend the RS1800 manifold as 330hp is ok for that manifold on a T34!
yep use ARP bolts and you should be ok...the safe limit for the rods is deemed around 280-290hp
c20let pistons best place is vauxhall forums or ebay or something...not sure if they are available from MAHLE anymore?
what cams have you got? pulleys you can use...the standard head will flow 330hp no problem so i wouldnt go through the expense of getting a modified head etc....the valve train may become an issue dependant on how hard you want to rev the car...
you will need a management swap unfortunately no matter which way you look...need something mappable....OFAB, MS, Gotech, etc etc are all good choices...
regards to mapping...Ahmed Bayjoo can also work his magic...

i thought the rods could take about 260 max?
as i'm looking at going down the same route, may aswell join in the topic.
standard pistons ain't gonna be much use, would run too high a compression ratio to run any worthwhile level in boost, so they would have to be done, though i'd imagine you could get them skimmed, but not much point when 20let pistons are about £100 2nd hand.
as for the standard mondy intake (which is the black plastic one by the way
), how much is that decent to flow up to? circa 260ish?
whilst i think about it, what management does the frs run as standard, and could that not be used, or does this present the same problem with the pats module that the blacktop ecu has? also any ideas from anyone if an omex600 can be used with the standard sensors(well majority anyway)
the fast road cams won't be much good, as they are for an n/a engine, so you could sell them for and get some standard ones, or i believe the frs ones are a straight fit (anyone confirm that?)
also, i know we are talking about the engine, but have you thought about the gearbox. how much will that take before chewing internals. i know my rear diff (4x4), or so i'm told. breaking a 4x4 so i'll have a spare, and find out the fun way
ah well looks like throttle bodies in the mean time, whilst i source parts

i have known the rods to see 300hp without any problems...its down to the mapping IMO and if its done right there shouldnt be any problems...any more than 300hp i would think is walking over troubled water...just to be on the safe side, i would have the rods (if you have to stick to standard rods) shot peened or cryogenically frozen to increase their strength
standard pistons would be ok with small boost - about 7-8psi i would think...but it would be safer with a decomp plate from ferriday
the mondy inlet should be ok to flow 300hp maybe a touch less...although i do not know of anyone who has maxed one out...but like i said...i would HIGHLY recommend the RS1800 inlet as i know they WILL do 300+ comfortably
i dont know anyone who runs the FRS system on their zetec turbo mainly due to mapping issues...Omex 600 should run the standard sensors no problem...if you are going this route...i would HIGHLY recommend Chris Todd from TOTD to map the vehicle!
with regards to cams...the power level you are after the standard 130ps cams are ideal believe it or not...some people even tone down the exhaust cam to the 115ps version...
the 4x4 transfer box IIRC in the mondeo is the weakest link in the drivetrain so would get that looking into....
my ZT needed a twin paddle clutch as a minimum with a MTX75 diff'd up with shot peened gears....possibly even cryo freezing it

got 282 cams kent fast road but can have them reprofile to bd10 spec zetec turbo ones
cant use rs focus cams in silver top zetec as they are not hydrolic cams they are shimmed ones and they are the same spec as the std blk top zetec mondeo's i have excess to info like this on e-cat/mirco cat and edis as i work for ford
if rs focus run same inlet and seen them push 360bhp so std mondy one will be ok
will run the rs tb and air deflector on top
as for transmission std box good for 300bhp or little less plus will get a lsd like the rs focus run and a organic clutch
if not will have a word with Gb
will get a huge cooler and custom pipes too
with same samco's
wanted to keep the mondy ecu and have it chip with unichip and get a boost module if possible to do that if not will look into ms or gotec from jamsport will have a chat to jaime to at same time
as i think he does cav turbo's and stuff and can properly get hold of the c20let pistons made by mahle i belive

well to be honest i wasn't planning on using the standard rods anywhoo, so thats no probs for me. got a spare engine lying about, as you do , so can slowly work through the zetec build getting everything right.
already been told that for all intents and purposes the 4x4 system is pants, hence gaving a spare set up.
it is the same system used in the rs2000 4x4 is it not. may have to pop into that room and have words there 
gradually make my way through the whole forum. as for the rear diff, could a cossie item be used as i'd imagine they wouuld stand a much better chance of taking the abuse than a mondy.
any ideas how much shot peening or cryo freezing the transmission components would be. 4 figure sum?

also exhaust what size should i get 2.25 ins or 3ins straight through and 3.5 ins exit
also want to keep the cat
will get a highflow one to keep it legal
and mount that to the rs foci exhaust manifold and t25
also what is the low boost can t25 run and max boost and what is it's max power limt only want to run bout 280bhp max or 330 not sure yet
oh would a wrc gasket be ok to with apr head bolts too ?
bassboy you said about rs focus system what you mean by that the ecu
i have seen engine advantages map a rs with bluefin and unichip combie would that be possible on my mondy as it is a silver top with disc port under dash/steering wheel
(how many turns on the acturtor to run 7-8psi and what power would that push on std internals with a de-comp plate got a m8 who wanted to know? also what turo would be best and what will be need to run that etc parts list)

it produced WAY WAY WWWWAAAAAYYYYY over 300hp 
if i wanted300hp the spec would be
RS1800 inlet
standard head
T34 turbo
ERST exhaust manifold
Calibra turbo pistons/CP racing pistons
Steel rods
OFAB manegement
400cc injectors
2 2wd Cossie coolers
if i was after 350:
same as above but Area Six custominlet manifold
double valve spring conversion
Flowed head with standard valves

so that is what you ran on your old rs turbo?
as for the ofab mangement would that go into a mondy or not ?
as i have said i got a m8 who want to turbo his 93 zetec mondeo like mine
i have deside to run rs focus bits like
tb
fuel rail
zorst manifold
injectors/(or uprated one's not sure what would fit the rs rail)
t25 turbo (whats thats max power it can push ?)
etc
would the std mondeo maf be any good too along with the other sensors?
what size exhaust is need to 2.25 in straight through from cat back or 3ins
not sure to have it custom maded or go for something like piper?
need a big cooler
c20let pistons
can i run the std rods with apr bolts (would it be ok to run that at 280bhp?)and have them machined for the gunge pin to fit the c20lets's or what bits do i need for this part?
mangement what should i use ?
what bits need to be done to the block?
which head gasket should i use to
std rs focus one ? or something else?
clutch what should i use there
alcon or something or a organic one do (needs to be hydrolic to mtx75)
will the std box cope with that 280bhp power ?
is there anything ese i need or have missed ?
idea's on the exhaust etc will help

OFAB will fit a mondeo no problem
the GT25 will see about 280hp...maybe a touch more but i wouldnt be confident pushing it more without seeing a compressor map
modeo sensors will be ok IIRC...but need to double check
rods should be ok at 280hp
I have 3 2wd cossie intercoolers welded up and ready for action here if your interested?
management is your choice...cheapest will probably be OFAB leading onto the likes of DTA, OMEX, Cossie management, Gotech etc
block needs oil return welded in and possibly new breather port depending on what exhaust manifold you use
head gasket - Late Focus multisteel one...year 2000 IIRC finish code 1071744
Clutch - i have an AP Racing paddel clutch kit here if your interested..brand new never used will easily see 300hp all day long...we specc'd it for my engine so you will have no issues whatsoever
exhaust - Simpson racing custom exhaust would be awesome failing that, a 2.5-3" bore exhaust will be fine
standard box will be fine with that power if its in good condition...might wanna consider a strip down and rebuild plus a Quaife ATB diff

Clutch - i have an AP Racing paddel clutch kit here if your interested..brand new never used will easily see 300hp all day long...we specc'd it for my engine so you will have no issues whatsoever
exhaust - Simpson racing custom exhaust would be awesome failing that, a 2.5-3" bore exhaust will be fine
standard box will be fine with that power if its in good condition...might wanna consider a strip down and rebuild plus a Quaife ATB diff

the GT25 will see about 280hp...maybe a touch more but i wouldnt be confident pushing it more without seeing a compressor map
modeo sensors will be ok IIRC...but need to double check
rods should be ok at 280hp
I have 3 2wd cossie intercoolers welded up and ready for action here if your interested?
management is your choice...cheapest will probably be OFAB leading onto the likes of DTA, OMEX, Cossie management, Gotech etc

ofab is the rs turbo stuff and that will link up with the std mondeo sensors and std inlet manifold etc ?
also how much would the mangement cost and how easy is it to fit and wire in also what happens with the std mondeo loom and ecu do i keep them there and splice into that or not will need a guide dont want to fuk up a £400 loom lol
also with ofab manifold can i run closed loop lamda control etc ?
gt25 is good for 280bhp thats ace

as for dv will something like use can it be used or not ?

std rods good for 280bhp
what is need to do to them to make them safe ?
to achive that 280bhp also they need to be modded to the c20lets pistons
where could i get them ?
also what size bolts need been looking at these

as for exhaust a custom one with 2.5 ins or 3ins straight through or a piper one with same diameter pipe
will it be ok to run a highflow cat to ?
simpson racing where is that ? (you got a website addy ?)
so the block needs a oil return welded in and possibly new breather port depending on what exhaust manifold you use
how hard is it to have the oil return put into the std block and can a engine builder/maching shop do this ?
also will i need to fit the breather pipe in or not if iam running rs focus std manifold
manifold choice
