for the price i would say just go for one of the turbo kits available, however this would probably work

Actually its going to be about 4500 dollars to get the stage 1 kit then the cost of fabricating some of the piping and most likely a custom tune I'm sure the total will be closer to 5500 dollars. But hey man if you have that kind of money to throw down on the fofo more power to you.

But you'll need a little bit of fabrication for the piping but other than that it should bolt up very nicely.

Also to get the full 11psi that you get with the FocusSport turbo you looking at 5500 dollars just to get it shipped over here.

EDIT: Just to let you know though on a 2.3l that was taken out to 2.5l they made 370whp with one of those supercharger kits.

I'd go for it. Rotrex makes an excellent supercharger and that looks like a decent kit.

Search the fiesta forums, looks like a good set-up and you get to keep the AC! mega win

Are you sure you can keep the A/C because I'm pretty sure the supercharger sits right where the A/C sits.

i've actually never heard of this brand [???:)] . i personally prefer turbo because you can get a lot more than a sc. but this is really cool. you should go for it and try it out and since you'll be the first one ask them if they can give you a discount [:)~] lol

That company has a project car that's making 370whp.

I would rather spend that amount on something that has been proven, Hell for 5,500 you might be able to talk Tom into to building a sweet 1 off turbo kit, with a nice bottom end to boot. But what do I know I've only been a mechanic for 17yrs now, LOL!

Are you here just to plug Tom's turbo kit?

No just hate seeing people waste their hard earned money and being disapointed. I've seen alot of poeple have good intentions at first just to waste their time and money, when there are great products out there that have been proven time and time again! Also, I think alittle further down the road than most, that's where reliabilty and also quality comes in.
