06 ST turbo build
I see a lot of mustangs in this section..........so i guess i'll be the odd ball out of this group.
The car: 06 Ford Focus ZX4 ST
The engine: 2.3L 2300cc Duratec
shootin for: 350hp/350TQ using a Holset hx30 turbo with an redline of 7k
mod list:
ported head
1.5mm bigger intake valve
2mm bigger exhaust valve
Crane stg 2 cams & springs/retainers
adjustable cam gears
Cosworth ITM
eagle connecting rods
Supertech pistons
ARP head & main studs
ford ranger crank keyed with the Cosworth keyed sprocket
Aluminum flywheel
clutch masters FX400
tubular turbo manifold
Holset hx30 turbo
oil cooler with sandwich plate.
don't know what injectors to run yet, Cosworth has a fuel rail an injectors but it's a little pricey.
HKS super sqv bov
Massive speed system Oil baffle & BSD kit.
the rip down
some of the parts

Cool build! I'm always more interested in the builds that are out of the main stream. (how hard is it to build a small/big block ford)
The holsets are pretty cool turbos but they don't move a lot of air at low psi in a restrictive system. With the porting you are talking about I hope it will make the numbers you want at low boost levels. My hx35-40 took 35psi to make big numbers.
Keep us updated.

Might change turbos to a Holset hx30 for a quicker spool but still hang on the hy35.
