Street Tuner Challenge season 3 - Page 21 - Focaljet

^^^ sorry dudes, but thats just retarded to say. I read all these threads and know what has happened on the show. But, I dont get speed and would still like to view these shows.

Since the orginal torrent link was removed, why not say something along the lines of "since the show is copyrighted material, we can't post the show as torrents/youtube etc"

so even if Dr. Charles hits 600 hp (and doesn't blow another motor) that's about 115% increase in power. so all the Focussport guys wouldn't even need to 300 (way easy for them) to pass that mark. and keep in mind, Fireballed! has hit 600hp out of a mini's 1.6 ....so no one is out of the game here.

i just REALLY hope they don't continue the cheezy through the series

....and i just finished uploading the torrent of tonights episode, didnt' trim any fat though, it's commercials and all. thepiratebay.org/tor/3846900/STC.S3.E1

^^here is one

I am still kinda turned off by the Skunk 2 guys. So far, all they have done is taken stuff off the car, then get outside companies to have THEIR people put it on. Like, why are you hear in the first place?

**moshaholic2** · 11-05-2007, 11:41 AM

doh! I looked for that damn thing before I posted, obviously I missed it.

still think it's silly to mention "reading the threads" gives you all the info about the show vs. watching it (espec. to see how annoying the fireball guy is)

yeah randy commented on that. in a very non bashing way. im sure he just doesnt want to bash the comp and be viewed as a bad sports man. or if they lost a sore loser.

**MattZTS** · 11-05-2007, 12:05 PM

i checked a couple evo. boards of course they think it about total numbers and are like the evo will smoke everything. then someone brings up t best improvement over stock and there still like evo will smoke anything.

**brads03zx3** · 11-05-2007, 12:50 PM

I knew you would chop off the end of the dyno vid

you are obviously running a turbo larger than the standard kit to give some advantage for the big willow course, so I'll throw out 375 whp (that puts ~440 hp at the crank). Also, I'll take 1:48 for a well driven stock focus, and a 1:31 for the r-comp'd turbo'd beast at big willow.

And the drive by sounds very similar to Clint's car...wonder why

**2focusd** · 11-05-2007, 02:03 PM

Wow Thameth, I didn't expect you to be an ass about my question

I have been reading this thread and have tried a couple times to download the Pirate Bay link torrent but no one's ever seeding it. That's also only episode one. I get Speed at my house but I'm never home when this is on, nor are my parents so I don't have any way to have it recorded (my VCR doesn't do the timer thing consistently, most of the time I don't trust it), thus why I would like to watch the episodes on here. I already know what the finished car looks like and know how it'll perform, but it'd be nice to watch Randy and company "in the flesh" doing their thing since it's not very often that a Focus gets to be featured on television like this

Someone just recently posted that the torrent was being seeded again, people constantly just pop in and don't read a thread or search the thread. So as much as you think we're being asses for telling you to read there are people who feel like your being asses for not reading the thread and paying attention.

Nobody said read instead of watch, people are saying read and you will find where to watch....

I was fortunate enough to have you power by me one time at SOW...you and JCM at the same time. All kinds of power there, and both 2.0 powerplants

**j20000** · 11-05-2007, 04:58 PM

Clint...what were your numbers after you built your motor?

**ClintB1321** · 11-05-2007, 05:23 PM

About 275+whp on 18-19psi. When we were on the dyno ay FS my car made 270whp at 18si,
but at about 5000rpm the boost was falling off to about 16psi, Ive since used some of the boost
correction and wastegate sensitivity features on the Eboost2 so my boost holds consistanly
through the rpm range. So now that my boost doesnt fall off toward upper rpm, i just have to
get to the dyno and see what the car will put down with consistant boost. I think with the boost
consistantly at 18-19psi, it'll prolly make between 280-290whp. But maybe i'll get luck and get 300whp

Your != you're

And if you'd read my previous post, you'd see that I stated that I have that torrent in my queue list but that's only episode one. I've searched through all of my usual torrent-hosting sites and have been unsuccessful in finding any of the other episodes (or any torrent period aside from that one posted in here) so I figured since this was such a hot topic on the biggest Focus board around, someone may have better information than I do. Doesn't seem too irrational to me

**MrTea** · 11-05-2007, 09:28 PM

i'll try to get the other 2 up tonight, though i'm not taking out commercials or anything most likely. some sites don't care for torrent links, so i don't post them. you can pm me and i'll get back to you with them. i have uploaded almost 7gig worth of the first episode so far....so guys are finding it

**BUR_ZX3** · 11-05-2007, 11:00 PM

shoot me your link, and I'll help seed it, since I'm online 24/7

**MrTea** · 11-05-2007, 11:34 PM

think i accidentally deleted #2, but got 3 up....i'll see what i can figure out to get #2 again.

Nice numbers Clint!!!

And Randy, how much boost are you guys pushing??

**BUR_ZX3** · 11-06-2007, 01:42 PM

more than 1, less than 100psi.

hey you never know, 100psi isnt that much

**y2kepdo** · 11-06-2007, 03:58 PM

i noticed that they put 118hp and 114tq, on the 3rd episode for the mini s, i hope they dont use that for base numbers because its wrong.

**brads03zx3** · 11-06-2007, 04:05 PM

You mean the mini cooper ss

They've made corrections apparently. Clint, you still have a stock head/cams, correct?
