Yea i can see you are hitting 8psi before 5000rpm, but for 400 hp its going to take at leas 25lbs on 9:0 cr and 25 psi i guarentee will not happen below 5000.

and you had more room to work with on the escort compared to a focus. Im not dogging and good luck with the project..its just my opinion that that turbo will be so much overkill on a focus and be terribly unefficient.

ok so 350 will take about 18-20ish lbs of boost. Im just saying that unless you want like 1000 hp i would not go with a gt35 For 400 i would go with a gt3071r.

well the 30 spools about 250-400 rpm faster than the 35 bt the I got a really good deal on its bb all the fittings for 500 brand new a 30 cost 1250 so I got that turbo and yes its a garret. now for the boost I would think a bigger turbo would make more power at same boost as alittle turbo. and the 400 mark is just there if I can hit 450 I will

This is a bit off topic.. Why speculate when you can ask the questions directly to the vendor? This should be about the CFM kit.

psi is psi its how the turbo makes it and pushes it that counts. Psi is measured at your manifold which could come faster slower harder softer, but 25 psi measured at one time is going to be 25 psi..its all on how it moves.

this is not true a bigger turbo will move more CFM's than a smaller one so it would make more power a the same boost level. the smaller may spool faster but it will be hotter air then the bigger turbo because its working harder so psi is not just psi

Im talking bottom line. If you set your boost controller to 25psi youll only get 25 psi no matter the turbo..as long as it can support it. Then instead of using CFM i was saying how much faster it moves, etc. I was not saying that a larger and smaller turbo will push out the same CFM at the same boost level but the opposite. What i was saying is that if you want to run say 25 psi bottom line a turbos size will effect how fast the airflow is pushed...CFM.

bottom line, u will not like the gt35r it will be hard to get it to fit on the focus for one. u WILL need a very slim fan and a JRSC will must likely kill u in the 1/4 mile spool time will be very high 5500+ RPMs i have seen a gt30r 1st hand and it has bad lag but hey toss a 100 shot on and u will be spooling in no time. i just hope this is a track car because on the street a smart4two will make u look dumb from red light to red light

I highly dont think there is any sc focus going to beat me . It has already beat cars that will beat a focus pretty bad.

OK I have a 30R on my car and it would hit full spool of just 15psi at 4000 rpms. If i go to 25psi it's 4300rpms. You have to remember that the 35R is going to spool slower than the 30R due to the size of the compressor. You could put the smallest exhaust housing you could find for the 35R and it's still going to spool really slow.

I have recently blown up my 30R and I switched to a 3071R which will spool on average 400rpms sooner than the regular 30R. with a 35R you will even have a hard time spooling that up off the line with some nitrous.

I think you may have possibly seen a 35R spool up on a different vehicle and it may have seemed pretty quick but on the focus it will take forever, especially if you have a zetec engine.

Its all the stock flow of the motor. Put a 35 on a civic and youll get better spool times.

Is there any fitment issues using the cast manifold, from what I've heard is that the SPA manifold causes the the trubo to hit the block even with the pcv box removed. If you could post pics of how it's setup that would be great.

The Spa turbo manifold fits. It all depends on the turbo size if fitment will be an issue. The black canister that normally sits on the block is removed. The PCV is ran differently. It will fit most T3 and T3/t4 turbos. We are working on a svtf at the moment that is looking to make around 350fwhp. We are using a spa turbo that fits fine and should be able to support that hp level. A GT30R turbo or larger will not fit., as something that large would hit the block.
