Minnesota Focus Owners Club

It's making this weird 'whine' sound since I started it up last night. No idea why. It feels a 'bit' quicker though...

Ideas?

Here's some pics to help out...

Hmmm I would bet your belt has oil on it and allowing it to slip around the accessory pulleys making it a 'bit' quicker. That's also the cause for the silly whining noise, is it a Gatorback?

Seriously though, nice work. How do you like it?

It feels amazing. The tune done by Focus Sport is PERFECT. The car drives like its stock until you give it a bit of gas. Has a small boost leak yet (I know were its coming from) that I need to fix tommorow, to really make it go, but it screams and is DEFINATELY faster, even with the boost leak.

I still need to do the meth kit install, probably I'll do it on monday, I wanted to make sure it was running right, before I brought more crap into the mix.

Hows yours going?

Which kit is that?

looks good dude. give me a call, im down for monday!

Sweet, I'm a little jealous. No big deal.

Mine is alright, coming together nicely. Going to have all my parts needed in possession by about 7pm tonight Then its bolting this baby together and dropping it in. I'm seriously ready to drive it again, having dreams about it already

I thought it was just the whining that came from behind the steering wheel. Congrats, I really need to get my shit together.

I see the problem it says Zetec not Vetec.
JK
Soon I'll be boooosting past you???

Focus Sport tune for this. Custom Big boost kit - 11psi (they only do 5.5psi stock). Meth/water 'snow injection' kit to keep the blower temps down for prolonged use. Focus Sport mail order tune. M45 blower. It should have added around 70whp give or take a few.

I figure I'll be just shy of 200whp.

NICE!

nuice..i can help fix that whiney noise if you dont want em anymore
