Boost Factory needs a test mule.
Who's ready to pull the trigger on some turbo action?
They(me)need a car to develop a "kit".

No we are just looking for a car I need to get one to the shop to make some jigs for a turbo kit for the focus stuff.What kind of different motors can I expect?

Chuck I called you a while ago, I have a 2.0l SOHC SPI focus, similar to the escort engines, I was talking with Chad (green VW hatch) and Jeffescortlx withthe turbo 1992 pony escort and I'd definately be interetsted in hooking up with your shop to get my manifold and piping made up, for a deal possibly???
But I've done the research and know what I need to get it done, if you seriously would like a test car for the SOHC focus just let me know.

Chuck, oooh me me!!!
Heh, i just yanked my turbo kit off (turbo seals leaking) i am more than willing to share some knowledge on custom built kits that i have learned about on the Focus. I also have my manifold and T3/T4 set up to show what a couple other people have done as well. I do need a dump tube made

A cop came by and trashed my dreams.

Swap to stick with CM Stage3, Fidanza Flywheel and Steeda Short Shifter

yup he sure is, however he's doing a kinda weird setup, I bought a used WRX turbo off one of Trahma's buddies in duluth, I never ended up using it so I sold it to Korri, and so he's doing a smaller TD04 WRX turbo which will give him the faster spooling that he wants and not go overboard with the hp.
But now that BF has the mani flange on file, they'd be able to build the manis pretty easy for others which is a good thing.
