how many real turbo focus cars are out there and where?

**3redzx's** · 02-10-2003, 08:10 AM

I'm in Lexington Ky but It's not turbocharged for a few more days. I guess it doesn't matter much with the snow we have here. [img]graemlins/thumbdown.gif[/img]
I guess I could be 1moreturbofocus now. [img]graemlins/lol.gif[/img]
I'm 1 silicone transition hose away from having a T3 mounted on Tom's starter kit.

Cali baby

Fmax/pectel T2/headpackage

201whp@6psi

Now happily boosting 8psi

I REALLY REALLY love the rush of the power, its so smooth, gotta love turbos, just always accelerating, never falls on its ass.

I really do love to just go out and drive now, just to get on it a bit, GOTTA LOVE IT

sorry gotta post again

I just seem to love driving my car ALOT more nowadays, dont know why, it just drives so smooth now, i love it.

The power comes on smooth and just pulls and pulls hard.

TO THOSE that have ALOT of small, mini problems all over the car, ADVICE - FIX them NOW.

I finally went through the car and fixed ALOT of small problems(missing bolt, alternator lose, bad belt, leaks, gaskets, brether valve

just small things, but man they add up.

My tranny is running smooth(except the slip), the engine runs BEAUTIFULLY(knocking on wood), kinda suprrised, after all i took this car through and still do, the engine runs like a ****ING CHAMP, doesnt skip a beat

The car is quiet(finally got the exhuast setup ive wanted as far as sound, look, size)

Everything is just coming together, the car handles GREAT, i got rid of ALL suspension noises

Its just a blast now, i hope it stays trouble free for a while, i just love getting into it on a nice day and JUST drive for the hell of it, something i havent done with this car for a WHILE
