Anyone else on here have the powerworks SC?
No... It isn't to different from any other roots blower install (like a JRSC).

We have a Vortech, Jackson Racing, and Focus Sport and soon a gude turbo kit. You are our first Powerworks

sept the kit is bigger, the inter cooler, and blower hang down off the back side twords the block and axles. the jackson is up top by the valve cover.

I'll PM you the order and my cell number so you can call when everything is in. Oh hey can you still take my clutch back for a core charge credit....from a year ago

No problem on the core return as long as you have the boxes

I guess you've never seen or installed a JRSC then. The fucker hangs WAY down, its not just the part you see on top.

It also ran for 50k miles boosted before any problem with the blower. Things wear out, I can't really rip on Justin for that one

no , i saw the pullys after the first mishap. the belt did a number on them, they looked bent, could be why the alts kept fryin. plus that kit has manuel belt tensioners( cus those work great after a new serp belt streaches a bit)

I'm going to have DB performance do the install. I've only done small installs on my car and I want to have the peace of mind knowing everything is done right.

focinite · Mon Oct 29, 2007 6:32 pm

thats why you do it your self!!! or live in the techs pocket and annoy the crap outta him, that way you know its done right!!

GRRRR so the guys at DB are balls deep on the install and they notice a few parts missing from my kit, then they notice the kit is for an 02.... GRRRRRRRRRR. does anyone know of a shop that has done alot of focus SC installs? So DB can talk with them. Did powerworks go out of buisness? Cuzz they are not answering there phones at all. OH my head

oh my poor car!

What do you mean "they noticed is was for an 02"? If your car is a Zetec, Manual, its pretty much universal. There isn't any difference between an 00 and a 04 Zetec manual setup (minus the intake from the early 00's)
