Minnesota Focus Owners Club

Is CleanZX3 the only turbo'd Focus in Minnesota?

No, there is a aerocharged zx3, and a jrsc with a pectal zx3.

And soon to be more.

Clean, what ever happened to Doughboy. He was working on a turbo setup. I never see him post anymore.

You can never have too many turbo'd car's.

Doesn't HotRodWagon have an AC3 setup?

oh and I'm about 20% boosted, after next friday approximately 50%...

someday

I have my seat cranked up real high so i can see over the steering wheel. I consider it the boosted position, does that count?

Humm that's more of a "Booster" than a "Boosted"

He doesn't really post anywhere anymore. But an update, He has the AC stage 3 kit, and now He has a new short block that is really making it quick! I will get ahold of him and let him tell the rest!

Good to here he's still got the Focus. You guys will have to come up to St. Cloud again. Had fun talking the last time you were there. You'll have get on the track next time. Ben still have the Mazda?

Yeah Ben still has the Mazda. We had to replace the engine last year cause it blew an Apex seal, but this year were on a mission to make it to atleast double the races as last year, that would be 4,:) Anyways, We prolly won't go to St. Cloud with it cause Ben doesn't like the way AARRF runs their stuff, nor do I. We like the SCCA better, just wish Brainerd could get the track certified for SCCA though so We don't have to drive 6 hours for a race.

Anyways, We will be sure to atleast get to some get togethers this year to show off the stock ZX3 and eric's not so stock ZX3:)

Hey, I FINALLY registered! Hooray for me.

Yep, I'm boosted with the AC3 setup. Kinda blew the engine and the car was down for 8 1/2 months.
It's about the longest story in history, but the short of it is I tried getting a built shortblock and MIC from Tom and it was the worst car experience in my life. After going through everything I did I'm not very excited about the car anymore (ask noresull). It really ruined all the fun of it.

I finally drove the car to Detroit last month to have it tuned by Lidio at Alternative Automotive. It's running pretty strong right now. I have a couple dyno sheets that said she's pulling 187 HP and 214 tq to the wheels while only hitting a late 8.5 psi on the dyno. On the street it pulls right around 10 psi.

I think my car hates me.

Man,
What happened? Good grief...4 blocks? What the hell was so f'd up?
I'm guessing you don't want to be reminded....
I have an AC3 kit for my car...have yet to intall it b/c I need to spend major qwon on my atx....I'm working on solving that. I heard Lidio has tuned a few AC3's....but I'm leaning towards the SCT software. I haven't been hearing much good about Tom lately....I'm staying away.

hey ya finally made it...good to hear ya are finally takin advantage...
