and of course this is what happens when you you use spray to soon. Tisk tisk for not have a window switch. I guess this is all he said happend "The only damage was that I cracked and blew a hole in the bottom of the intake manifold and broke another MAF housing. "

It's fast, theres no doubt about it.
But is it worth it? (certainly not in my mind)
All the time and money, just to shave like 2 seconds?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be negative, its nice to see a Focus out there representing once and awhile.
But I'd rather buy a different car for the price difference...just my 2 cents though... ;)

I think its worth it. He's got a 13sec Focus now.
I guess thats what he wants so props to him for being different. I much rather just do a turbo lol but there are alot of ppl out there who hate turbos and think NA or Nitrous is the best way to go. Those NA parts can be super expesnive.
In my mind I think 2 seconds is alot. Thats a good gap away from your car and the other car.

It is worth it for sure...
Myself i'd rather have forced induction over NO2. But thats because I want the power legally on the highway rather than only at the track....

Yep, 13 sec focus does have a certain level of accomplishement to be said. I'd be pretty happy and 'proud' to say I did that to a focus.

Chad. I am ordering my turbo from Tom. I got to call him and get the exact quote and shipping fee's. Most likely get it shipped to ND and go and pick it up. :D

Damn Jay, good plan on the shipping to ND. You know someone there to ship it to? When you planning this? Going with TOM's stuff is very smart IMO.

Naturally aspired with a dose of nitrous vs. forced induction via turbo or super charger. Sounds kinda grey to me. :unsure:
