VERY VERY nice work! What kind of numbers are we talking about here... (whp, 1/4 mile, 1/8 mile)?

Let me lay it out on the table for you, in plain English, not eBonikz yO.

We have studied the effects of exhaust restrictions of our Turbo Focus on the dyno. We found that we could gain 35hp at the wheels just by opening up the exhaust flow! Now, you can laugh or point or say "dayum, dat dere eggzast is fer pickemup trucks" but the fact still remains that this will increase our dyno numbers tremendously (and for the low-low price of $170).

Call it bling, call it redneck, call it stupid....It's still FOC-ING FAST.
He was not making fun of you , he was only asking a Question... I don't think he really knew what the effect of a side exhaust would have on the car ---- thus why he asked the Question---
it's a nice car , we are glad to see pics, but you don't have to get defensive.. we all respect the focus.. Maybe you should change the title of the thread so the car comands respect , which it does, to Focus instead of Fuckus...

When is the Pro 5 getting boost.

Everytime I've ever mentioned my 'other' car on this site, I've been plagued by the "Fuckus" syndrome.





Pro5 will get boost if/when FUEL MANAGEMENT is solved and timing is properly addressed!

Don't worry about it. People are just jealous. Or something.

I usually call them "focass" (pronounced "foke-***")

Nah, I've got nothing but respect for your "other car", amazing what you did with it

The old numbers were 219hp/255tq, best 1/4 13.80@104 so we're shooting for lower than that. Still have a few odds and ends-type things to work out before we stick her back on the dyno.
