ok its not mine and its not on a focus...its on a old 80's sunbird convert....but ne way he is having problems if he doesnt warm up the car enough the car stalls and he has been having alot of turbo lag...which he didnt have before. He thinks it might be the thermometer. but is not sure and hes not a car guy either. So if ne one can give some advice or ideaas of what the problem is it would be great. thanks

hmm well maybe cuz this is a FOCUS website and your friend has a SUNBIRD.....hint hint
How many miles.. does it have a coil pack? maybe a problem with the ECU? Plug wires, fuel pump... what?
Turbo lag could be do to a bad waste gate.. as well as MANY other things.
Thanks,
R.

Has peak boost changed? Is the car really lagging or is it a power loss that could be something besides the turbo?
