thats overkill. ill be running that pump when im done with my turbo 3L

stock pump should be sufficient for his mods (it was for my 3L hybrid) but IIRC theres a smaller walbro that would be a better upgrade for him

I didn't even look at his mods.

I think with a 200 shot of nitrous (progressive stages of course), he'll need it. That's what I'd do.

Yeah, there's a smaller one.

And they're in tank.

This site has a few different options for pumps including Vortech, Walbro, Comptech, Aeromotive, etc. What do you think?

Thought I would put in an update, car should be out of the shop by this weekend, but still needs a few things done like 65mm throttle install, fuel pump change, chip install.

head with exhaust manifold


Heres a closer look at one of the cams


Drivers side, not much there but its so clean right now


The adjustable cam gears weren't in stock when I tried to purchase them before the car went into the shop, so I'll have them installed later


Intake side; the Focus intake manifold will have to be used along with a Focus fuel rail. I used a BDL rail with 30# injectors. The rail will require a adjustable regulator 2bolt style, for the fuel return system to work, and longer fuel lines will have to be used since the regulator sits on the pasenger side and not the drivers side fo the fuel rail.


I think this is the EGR valve
(I could be wrong), or whatever it is called will have to be modified. On the Focus intake its horizontal and on the Tour intake its vertical, so I'm having them cut swaped out and rewelded on. Hopefully it comes out good, I'll get picks of it once its finished. You can see the rail and injectors in there also.


Focus valve on right, Contour valve on left

I'm planning on doing a turbo setup, so I'm waiting to change out my exhaust manifold for the turbo install. There was no reason for me to spend the extra money on a focus exh manifold, when I have to have a turbo manifold custom made to fit.

makes sense...but your not planning on doing that for a couple of years? why not buy a cougar header?

If you're waitin' a couple years for the turbo, a header can be resold later - prolly for near what you pay for it.

I just paid $278 delivered for one.


Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

When did I say I was waiting a couple of years? I'm trying to finsh this project by Spring Zing 06, so I can drive up and STUNT on the other pre-98's up there, and show them how we do it in the West(SOCAL that is).
