bit ambitious are we?
PM stryker2 for turbo kit info, hes really the only person on here to extensively mod a zetec, aside from hector.
He puts down 220ish to the wheels.
If you bought a turbo kit for a Focus you will have lots of modifying to do to make it fit in the contour.T3/T4 turbo kit running 10 pounds of boost.

If near 200k borthers you, then have fun with the v6. If im not mistaken striker rebuilt his for the turbo at over 200K and im pretty sure his engine was still running strong at that time(other then maybe one or 2 small problems maintanence problems). these engines seem to last forever and with a rebuild, its as good as new and even stronger.
i did rebuild an engine. however it was not the one with 241K miles on it. it had about 100K on it. i still have the old engine sitting on the engine stand. perhaps one weekend i will tear it apart and take pictures to show what it looks like after that many miles.yes striker had like 241k on his zetec before the turbo ... and yes he also rebuilt the engine so that negates the 241k miles it had before ... I do believe it was the clutch failure that lead to everything ... and that make sense since it had to be pulled ...
yeah that would have sucked.do you happen to have pics of what you engine looked like with around 100k on it? Would be interesting since mine is around there.
Nice contour man. How much did your supercharger cost?
first off its a mondeo not contour lol, the JRSC with BBK cost exactly $3000 usd shipped to me in the uk 18 months ago. iirc it was from a company called import cars plus, http://www.importcarpartsplus.com/ i dont think they sell it for zetecs any longer
beat me to the punch, I was going to call him out for that too
I love that mondeo, wish I could build something like that
