get randy to do it. i strongly advise this. Im running a base tune on 8psi and it still pulls hard. randy knows his s*** and is really good to deal with. dont bother with tom seriously

I know randy usually refuses to do custom turbo setups remotely...

didnt you say you had access to a trailer to tow it there? lol
[right][snapback]305159[/snapback][/right]

DaSilva offers pick up with there trailer if your tuning with them....not sure how far they will go to pick it up, but you can call them and ask.

Sean, with all this time, effort and money into ur Focus you better bring it to the track- 1/4 mile AND roadcourse at least once each. lets have some fun :D

They do pick up within 100 km I believe and thats with getting some work done not just tuning. I believe the min is $3g's so alot of guys that are doing superchargers and big jobs use that service but just for tunning it's not worth it for them.

does anyone know where i can get all the tourque specs for the engine??? also do you guys use lock tite on all your bolts?????

edit: dad got it out thank god....i measured the bolts and they apear to be like a 2mm to long...could this be from the bolts stretching???

could be, ive even heard of arp studs stretching so you have to be careful

They shouldn't be streched already unless you have already torqued them down once before. What brand name are they?

there ford oem bolts but i got replacments.... i found out why they kept snapping.....my dads torque wrench only goes from 30ft/lbs....so i had to buy another one that started at 0ft/lbs

do you guys lock tite all the bolts??? or no need too??

Please spend the extra bucks and buy ARP instead of OEM your cheaping out on some stuff that you shouldn't be cheaping out on. I don't want to see you blow that motor before it even sees boost.

Check this out:

DOHC engine; Loc. Upper; RTV sealant not incl. for Lower oil pan gskt.; molded rubber gskt. incl.

What's the ARP number for the windage tray bolts - I now have a pretty good hookup for ARP products and I wouldn't mind pricing it out for s***s and giggles.
