No offense but you said this was going to be a daily driver and you were looking for "a little more power" ... 475 hp is insane and actually impossible on stock internals - you'd need to spend thousands building that motor first.
I get that you already have the turbo and it's very attractive to find a way to use it; but you should listen to the advice you find on here - lots of experience boosting Zetec's on here and you can benefit from the mistakes already made without it costing you a penny.
No one's trying to discourage you from going balls out on your Focus - but we'd be remiss if we didn't point out the land mines in front of you.
