Excellent! We don't want the father of the turbo contour V6 to be without the fruits of his labor!
BTW Chris, I am in Texas now how close are you? I wouldn't mind meeting up some day soon. You may be aware that I am at Fort HOODlum now...er Ft Hood!

warm....

Call me or post pics when the Turbo Kit is on ANY ATX CDW27. Then and only then will I wear a black eye. But from what I have heard, DIRECT from SF, the down pipe and up-pipes simply do not fit with the ATX trans. The ATX trans is just way too big. So short of mounting the turbo in the passenger seat, I don't know how it will fit.


I am not trying to be an ass. I am just stating the facts.

As for father of the V6 Contour.....

The best of luck to you Chris H. But don't hold your breath.

Nah, you read it wrong. He said father of Turbo V6 Contour.

It was only an implied title as he has been fighting for a v6 turbo kit for so long. He also helped with all the original coordination that got SF started on the kit.
No, I didn't mean he impregnated a v8 for v6 offspring...

the piping may have to be totally different, but I'm sure it can be done. Turbos can be done on a contour w/ zetec (which isn't that much smaller than a duratec), so I think it could be done.

We have a lot more room in our engine bay.

Ahh, look again!

As for Chris. I know he helped with the marketing of the SF Turbo Kit, and he should be thanked for that. I also contributed a lot of technical help on it too, but we won't go into that.
