Woah this blew up too fast I dont feel like reading the whole thread but from what I have read. Jay is seing it from my prospective totally, Steve you should read my post where I gave some examples, Meford4U good luck man I dont see why you would spend so much on trying to acomplish 170whp in the end its going to cost you alot more then the turbo, with the turbo you can just turn up boost instead of buying more and more to make more power with the tittle boost the SC puts out.
Put it this way say you take you car to drag strip and you line up beside another focus your cars got stereo components a/f, oil pressure guages and lowering springs blinging rims and all that s**t , people are gonna be like "woah that guys spent a pretty hefty penny on his car hes gonna kill t he other guy with that stock looking focus". The light hits green and the focus beside you smokes you, your car aint s**t anymore. After the race the other guy pops his hood and bam Turbo here he tells you HKS BOV, port and polished head whatever....whos gonna get the respect nobody wants to see a car that looks fast when it aint fast.
On a side note the tech side has gone up but I wish more and more people could post on that because I like learning new thing, then when there is a repost of the question I could chime in and give some advice. Its nice to see the Turbo build ups and SC build up but its wierd that only a handfull are doing it and the rest are spending crazy money on body parts or stupid things.
Flame away you all know I can back myself up
