bmylez' turbo build - Page 3 - The Ford Focus Forum

**bmylez** · 11-03-2009, 10:27 PM

Hahaha, yes, I have everything hooked up to everything. If it wasn't hooked up in the correct sequence, the laptop wouldn't be logging stuff. I can see it logging MAF counts and other parameters I've selected.

Yep, I've been trying to take everyone's advice and make a hybrid of it, haha.

Alright, got mo' parts in da mail!

Siemens Deka 60# injectors, Motorcraft copper plugs, Diablo MAFia, J&S ultrasafeguard with gauge, and KB B-A-P

Also, did everyone else's J&S come in this bag???

I was like, "Crown Royal, sweeeeet!!!"

**turbozeteczx3** · 11-04-2009, 08:29 PM

yes they all come in that lol

**bmylez** · 11-08-2009, 12:17 PM

Yaaaay, more parts that I don't know when I'll get to install because of my stupid diff:

Tyte JDM oil catch can, yo. Flojet water pump and vac distro block. The vac block is huge, didn't expect it. At this point, I realize it was overkill, oh well...

what do you mean?

**pzev04boy** · 11-09-2009, 05:39 PM

His torsen is broken

**turbozeteczx3** · 11-09-2009, 05:41 PM

^^ damn how did you do that lol been running on slicks with mine and still havent had a prob. crossing fingers

**bmylez** · 11-09-2009, 06:04 PM

It's probably manufacturer defect. Only prob is I have to ship it to them. That means my car is down for like 10 days and I pay for a rental car. And if they don't warranty it I'm royally screwed. I'm just gonna get a Quaife to make things simple. I can still go boosted but it's gonna hurt the bank a little more...

**pzev04boy** · 11-09-2009, 06:55 PM

Are you doing the labor to pull & re-install the trans?

**bmylez** · 11-09-2009, 07:26 PM

Gonna have Patrick install it for me. It will be much less than a race shop. Hopefully he's available very soon.

**mattellermets** · 11-09-2009, 09:09 PM

Too bad you don't live in Illinois...

**bmylez** · 11-09-2009, 09:29 PM

Naw, I'll take my 75* days in November, sorry.

You can road trip it down here for fun if you'd like, haha.

**mattellermets** · 11-10-2009, 09:58 AM

Hey we got 65's all week...

**Stolle** · 11-10-2009, 11:59 AM

got ya beat. still 90 here.

**bmylez** · 11-10-2009, 06:00 PM

How the hell is that beating me? 75 is extremely comfortable. 90s suck. Maybe it's nice for Afghanistan

**mattellermets** · 11-10-2009, 06:13 PM

pwnt

**starfuryt550** · 11-13-2009, 04:20 AM

are you using your own charge piping for this kit?

**bmylez** · 11-13-2009, 06:56 AM

I'm doing water to air, so yes, I would have to.

**mattellermets** · 11-13-2009, 12:56 PM

air/water turbo on a focus will have like 2' of charge piping

**pzev04boy** · 11-13-2009, 02:19 PM

Less on an svt the way he is planning it.

**mattellermets** · 11-13-2009, 04:58 PM

yeah, that was a high estimate... and I mean ALL of the intake tract.

turbo -> heat exhanger -> maf -> tb

you'll need what, one bend, and then just couple everything together?

**bmylez** · 11-13-2009, 05:48 PM

Yeah. Gonna put the I/C where the battery is. I'll need more like 3 bends, though. Just worried about the tight fit with BOV and MAF somewhere in there.

**Ja-Red** · 11-13-2009, 07:31 PM

That's gonna be your downfall right there. We straightened and put 6 more inches in front of my MAF and saw a drastic difference in the counts both in how high they went and how much less jumpy they were. 6" is the min recommended straight distance in front of the MAF. BOV has to be infront of the MAF as well.

**bmylez** · 11-13-2009, 07:39 PM

So you're telling me there is no way for me to run this setup?
