Focus RS... Re-circ valve
Is it ok to remove the re-circ valve on the Focus and simply blank it off? Not sure exactly what the turbo is either?

Nothing Kev, dont want a dump valve. Feels very laggy between changes. Similar to my RST before removing the dump valve.
Seem to remember Ford says its a gt turbo, but like they call the engine a Duratec, it isnt really.

Well its my mates RS, i was trying to convince him it would be fine but he's read this now 
Compared to my turbo its very laggy after changes. Not worried about noise tbh.
I understand from other posts that the managment version he has tends to be boggy also (AE).

Rob my Bluefin was the first mod on my FRS, do I need to send it back to get it setup with all the mods I have now (de-cat, manifold, dv etc) and how much does it cost?
Cheers

I don't think you gain anything from changing the standard Bluefin map untill you change the turbo.
As for taking the re-circ off, was something I asked Mike about yonks ago and know one has dared try it yet, I'm just waiting untill someone else has done it without problems for a while first.
Paul, de-cat + Bluefin are a must for first mods, transforms the car, infact Bluefin alone does.
