actually, there is a kit for installing a 5.0 v8 into the focus that's supposed to use most of the stock components (don't know if its suggested though). The kit runs at about 20 grand but that should be easy money once you become a doctor.
@kc88kc Bahahaha... no. People are always ragging on these cars. I've had mine since June of 2000 brand new and she still runs like a top all stock and pushing 104k miles.
What kind of turbo set up are you running? you changed some of the internals as well right? 400hp is alot on stock rods. I'm curious because i've got a 2000 se project atm
a 2.0 zetec is completely capable of 350-400hp with a turbo setup. i think you need to change the rods camshaft and some other internals otherwise the rods snap and break out of the block. a friend of mine swapped a stock eg civic with a 2.0 because wanted more power of of a 4cyl, the result was him smoking alot of v6s and all he did was add a better intake manifold, headers and ram air.
The WRC focus pushes about 300-350 out of the same engine i believe. turbos are crazy
Can you send me your build? Is this duratec or zetec?
And for all you idiots 400hp is easily attainable if you put in forged pistons, rods, etc and boost it higher to ~25psi with stock cams. You might even be able to hit 400 with it at 15, who knows, but I'm just going off a dyno I saw on the FSWerks.com site.
@Eklipse113 you call rebuilding an entire engine with parts that are expensive easy? its a pain in the ass you just told me you have never done shit to a car so please gtfo youtube videos about cars and quit being a youtube racer
@Jlizel Easy as in for the car... Of course it's fucking hard to rebuild an engine. I said "easy" because the dyno sheet listed 9:1 pistons and forged rods at 26psi. It wasn't even cammed and had the stock cylinder head. I'm assuming you could get some more with those. I'm not on youtube to argue with anyone, and I certainly don't need to prove to you whether I've worked on my car or not. Take a look at my channel to see my car and what I've done to it, but leave your asshole comments at home
@Eklipse113 you dont need to prove anything i saw your videos all you know how to do is boltons and thats if you put them on yourself your a kid who owns a newer car that thinks bolt ons are hard and car guys work on their cars. sorry to say but bolting on an intake with a flathead screwdriver is not working on a car. gtfo
@Jlizel Listen man, I'm not the one shouting "gtfo" on a youtube video. All I was saying was 400hp is possible on a focus to all the naysayers. Because I'm in medical school I don't have the money to build my engine or I'd go 9:1, forged, turbo (and do it all myself, thank you)-- considering the whole doctor thing means I'm pretty smart and cars are pretty much big Lego sets. Go back to McDonalds and your Civic forums.
@Eklipse113 Usually those who tout their credentials are the dumbest of them all. Your statement of "9:1, forged, turbo" told me that you really don't know much about internal combustion engines because each of those terms are very relative and not specific.
@347Ranchero You've raised a legitimate concern. I was referring to 9:1 compression ratio pistons and full forged aluminum internals (rods etc) which allows you to boost higher psi w/o blowing the motor. The turbo kit that I prefer is the FSWerks turbo kit, since only a few are on the market (check out their site). I'd also like to cam the car but the market is a bit scant- this is where my knowledge also runs thin. I don't know the best degree specs to use. I'm sorry that this is only my hobby.
@Eklipse113 I know what you were referring to, I was merely referring to your statement being rudimentary. However, you just stated that you want an aluminum crankshaft (not sure they even make this for a focus, but if they do, it's a complete waste) and aluminum rods (really only for racing applications). You mentioned a turbo, but no aftermarket cylinder heads or porting which is really more important than adding more boost.
@Eklipse113 Also, if you don't know anything about camshafts, you probably should start learning. It really is one of the most key components to building an engine, and really is the brains of the mechanical portion of it. Don't worry, this is only my hobby too. I am a computer nerd by trade. Just please don't waive around your credentials like you own the place, because nobody cares if you're a doctor. Personally, I think they get paid too much.
I love people that think they can guess the HP of a car just from watching a video. I mean really, you have no idea and you can't so shut up about it and just ask for a pic of a dyno sheet.
anyone who thinks a focus cant make horsepower doesnt know jack about cars i got a buddy with a svt puttin down over 400 and turbo toms "beast" was like 725. ja-red and stolle are both over 500 hp now
@AaronSmith0 first off fuck you come back when your balls drop and you get a drivers liscense. and is that really the best burn ya got cuz shits weak little man. and lastlt do you not have anything better to do with your time than talk shit on youtube, wow your cool
@jakepwnzz there is a difference silly goose, blow off valve creates a wooosh sound a wastegate is quiet. blow off releases intake piping pressure in between shifts and when you let off the gas. wastegate is so the turbo does not over boost. :) thank you very mucho
@brannon86svo Wastegates also make noises. Any kind of immediate pressure drop will create a noise, through whatever it is released. Some Wastegates dump into the exhaust at the same place as the turbo outlet, some dump into the exhaust, like 18 inches down stream, and some release right into the atmosphere. They do not make the same sound as a blow off valve, it's louder, raspier and less glamorous, a blowoff valve bleeds off pressure before the compressor side after the turbo before the TB.
Sorry Bro sixth doesn't burn out but it chirps or burns out in every gear usually just chirps into fifth plus I have very shitty tires which doesn't help
@B16power69 yea ive seen a focus with less than 400hp with limited slip diff pull the tires all the way thru 4th gear no prob, this is more in the 250 range...
@blackdessertrose dude you dont burn out in sixth, unless you changed the gears or somthin i had 180 at the wheels with AEM intake, tune by diablosport, magnaflow full* exhaust, stage 2 clutchmasters clutch 13lb flywheel msd powerpak with plugs and wires, i had an 02 with an 04 motor with 18k on it stiffer springs and lifters, i was hittn 7300 rpms and it took it all day long and i could BARELY pull the tires in 2 so you dont have to lie to be cool i love svt fs but with 330hp they dont pull 6th
That's funny how smartasses can tell the power by looking at the video. This car was prepared in Brazil, it did reach a bit more than 400hp, specs and real performance videos/pictures/comments populated the main Ford discussion boards for a while.
People just like to sound experts, when all they actually do is talk shit.
@alemomma yea ive seen a focus svt with 400hp with limited slip diff pull the tires all the way thru 4th gear no prob, and i am smart enough to know that when you watch a vid you cant tell the HP of a car, but id guess its not a 400hp focus however he could have better tires or is driving diffrent and im sure its a diffrent tune as well so im not going to say it doesnt have 400hp but i can see why shit talkers may think so...but that thing pulls harrrrd nice vid nice car!! sounds mean as hell...
@culeros911 You get hot charge air temps. Forced induction drag cars dont run intercoolers for the most part. Some have water to air but Ive never seen or read about one having an normal air to air IC
@blindreap3r Obviously you know squat,It aint that easy for the 2.0 duratec to make 400whp with all stage 2 internals,forged and balanced let alone stock.I want you to walk into a serious performance center and tell them u want 400hp outta your 2.0 duratec and watch your bank account begin to empty,cause it aint easy,hence not everyone builds a focus.Not easy and alot of money.
@Tedgoestojail NO one builds a focus because they suck. I can make 500whp on my stock block SR20 ftw who buys a fwd ford? Go buy a mustang like everyone else who likes ford and throw a giant blower on it.
@mccaf2250 look it up yourself you lazy pos.there are several on youtube.and why not? the focus engine was built to handle 500 horse on the stock bottom.
@robby844 Thats funny that you call me lazy because I searched. There are some Focus's making 380whp with forged internals most making around 400whp. That's hardly a stock block and nothing great for forged internals. Its a shitty motor point proven.
@mccaf2250 the new focus rs 500 goes 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in less than 6 seconds and it has 350 hp from a 5 cilinder turbo.. so dont talk trash
not all fords are made for the north american market.. actually your focus models suck ass!
@Akiryum woah kmh I'm over in America so I'm to dumb to do a simple calculation and figure out how fast 0to100kmh is. Its shitty however because my car goes 0 to 100mph in 8sec with only 250whp weighing in at 1800lbs. I dont own a pos focus and if I were to ever buy a ford you better believe I would buy a V8 Cobra
@Akiryum I don't like v8's they are big and heavy however I would rather buy a v8 than a ford 4cylinder or 5 cylinder lol v8 is what ford knows I don't trust other ford motors. On the other hand I own an 1800lb Nissan se-r that is gutted no a/c no p/s its a race car so I hate heavy cars I like light nimble good handling cars. I would never buy an EVO or WRX considering they weigh double what my car weighs and put out the same power. I do the same times on the road courses with proper suspension
@mccaf2250 im not talking about track, im talking about street cars and so does the focus video; cars with a/c, power steering and doors cover. FOR ME drive from one place to another with your car that had the engine power doubled in traffic is awesome. the duratec engine isnt bad. design by mazda used on volvos and mazdas 3 its a global project, also used by ultrafast caterams
congrats for your car, sounds fun, althou i would not never have a 100% race car that was not streetable
@Akiryum Well I do have an Infiniti that I drive around to take out my girl and what not that's the perks of having 2 cars. Plus my race car has no insurance nor is street legal so it gets driven around on a trailer. I don't race on the drag strip its for the road course however I could most likely run low 11's or high 10's on slicks. The trailer is nice however since I don't have to worry about breaking when I race since I can just throw it back on the trailer BTW not never is a double negative
Could be 400hp but i doubt it. Focus are not lsd or posi to start with so with 230+ hp you can spin the tires switching into 3rd gear depending on how u shift and the tread on the tires. But 400hp im not sure unless you have a lsd transaxle and you spinning them like that into 3rd with brand new tires then maybe mid to high 300's. But 400hp you wouldve spun them the whole video.
I guess you didnt notice the European Buses and Trucks in this vid. Maybe they imported them for the video shoot. Or more likely this is a heavily modified RS which does have a quaife diff. I think your theory has some holes. Sounds to me like 25+ psi. It also sounds like 75% tp. Hence the massive wheel spin. He is shifting at 5800. Not a full throttle pull and still sick.
not what i said they are 212bhp standard which they peak at 16psi and hold 14psi ish if the actuator is not to worn they can make 300bhp pretty easy though
ecu remap
decat and full exhaust system
k&N gen 2 filter
forge dump valve recir 1
better manifold
forge actuator running about 21/22psi will make a good 300bhp
last time i checked a suzuki tl1000r is a superbike, not a car. the fact that it only has two wheels is a dead giveaway. in fact, im pretty sure if your lazy ass typed in tlr in that little bar 6 inches above where your looking now that says search you could easily one. that fact that you just keep replying with absolutely no knowledge of what your writing just makes you look like a dumbass. just stating the facts. keep your chin up guy.
if it's a bike why the hell are you comparing traction with a focus? I weigh 210 lbs and my sandals lose traction when wear them and walk on ice, so I must have 294hp. lol
What are you talking about, he is going in a straight line!
Chassis is good for 400bhp i would personally stiffen it up with a cage and struts but the car itself is fine, as proven by reyland over here in the uk with the cosworth transplant, although that was RWD.
400 or not 400, turbo focus is very cool congrats on having a nice car people talk shit but when it comes to the corners they wont be laughing any more all focus owners know how well they go around corners ;)
sorry, that comment was supposed to be a good way down the list of comments, this should be a zetec motor. don't know why i commented anyways it was from a few months back. carry on. thats a mean focus by the way

@Akiryum woah kmh I'm over in America so I'm to dumb to do a simple calculation and figure out how fast 0to100kmh is. Its shitty however because my car goes 0 to 100mph in 8sec with only 250whp weighing in at 1800lbs. I dont own a pos focus and if I were to ever buy a ford you better believe I would buy a V8 Cobra
mccaf2250 1 year ago
@mccaf2250 0 to 100 kmh is the same as 0 to 60 mph. and it goes at 5.4 seconds.
i understand that you like v8s since you are an american. you love big, heavy cars
i dont like mustangs much. i would rather get a lancer evolution or a subaru wrx. they are small, but fast
Akiryum 1 year ago
@Akiryum I don't like v8's they are big and heavy however I would rather buy a v8 than a ford 4cylinder or 5 cylinder lol v8 is what ford knows I don't trust other ford motors. On the other hand I own an 1800lb Nissan se-r that is gutted no a/c no p/s its a race car so I hate heavy cars I like light nimble good handling cars. I would never buy an EVO or WRX considering they weigh double what my car weighs and put out the same power. I do the same times on the road courses with proper suspension
mccaf2250 1 year ago
@mccaf2250 im not talking about track, im talking about street cars and so does the focus video; cars with a/c, power steering and doors cover. FOR ME drive from one place to another with your car that had the engine power doubled in traffic is awesome. the duratec engine isnt bad. design by mazda used on volvos and mazdas 3 its a global project, also used by ultrafast caterams
congrats for your car, sounds fun, althou i would not never have a 100% race car that was not streetable
Akiryum 1 year ago
@Akiryum Well I do have an Infiniti that I drive around to take out my girl and what not that's the perks of having 2 cars. Plus my race car has no insurance nor is street legal so it gets driven around on a trailer. I don't race on the drag strip its for the road course however I could most likely run low 11's or high 10's on slicks. The trailer is nice however since I don't have to worry about breaking when I race since I can just throw it back on the trailer BTW not never is a double negative

Could be 400hp but i doubt it. Focus are not lsd or posi to start with so with 230+ hp you can spin the tires switching into 3rd gear depending on how u shift and the tread on the tires. But 400hp im not sure unless you have a lsd transaxle and you spinning them like that into 3rd with brand new tires then maybe mid to high 300's. But 400hp you wouldve spun them the whole video.
illchewonthatrug 2 years ago 2
I guess you didnt notice the European Buses and Trucks in this vid. Maybe they imported them for the video shoot. Or more likely this is a heavily modified RS which does have a quaife diff. I think your theory has some holes. Sounds to me like 25+ psi. It also sounds like 75% tp. Hence the massive wheel spin. He is shifting at 5800. Not a full throttle pull and still sick.
magnumbd 2 years ago
25+psi?are you serious?
The focus turbo would be lucky to handle 10-12psi.
BAwithBALLS 2 years ago
umm! the standard focus rs peaks boost at 16psi and holds about 14psi tuned standard turbo can handle 21/22psi fine thats what mines running
mark170bhp 2 years ago
i doubt it, if that was the case it would be making about 300hp stock, which is not the case.
ThelenShar 2 years ago
not what i said they are 212bhp standard which they peak at 16psi and hold 14psi ish if the actuator is not to worn they can make 300bhp pretty easy though
ecu remap
decat and full exhaust system
k&N gen 2 filter
forge dump valve recir 1
better manifold
forge actuator running about 21/22psi will make a good 300bhp

just don't see how the stock turbo can make 16 psi let alone 21/22. what turbo is this? :S

all the blokes on the rs owners club forums are running 22psi on s/turbo one is even running 26psi with no problems

keep in mind some people do not operate the throttle as an on/off switch.
still 400hp is stretching it.

last time i checked a suzuki tl1000r is a superbike, not a car. the fact that it only has two wheels is a dead giveaway. in fact, im pretty sure if your lazy ass typed in tlr in that little bar 6 inches above where your looking now that says search you could easily one. that fact that you just keep replying with absolutely no knowledge of what your writing just makes you look like a dumbass. just stating the facts. keep your chin up guy.

forfy19891 2 years ago
if it's a bike why the hell are you comparing traction with a focus? I weigh 210 lbs and my sandals lose traction when wear them and walk on ice, so I must have 294hp. lol

FerrariLamborghini25 2 years ago
Torque steer?
What are you talking about, he is going in a straight line!
Chassis is good for 400bhp i would personally stiffen it up with a cage and struts but the car itself is fine, as proven by reyland over here in the uk with the cosworth transplant, although that was RWD.
