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.
Umm...The stock 2.3 Duratec Focus head flows like 300CFM on the intake and about 260 CFM on the exhaust. Not sure where this restriction you speak of is...
Anyways, for this guys power goal...
He would be best using a T3/T4 or soemthing of that nature ..The HY is just simply more turbo than you need for this.
If you are stuck ona holset and want good spool...
I vote HX35 and proper twinscroll header.
Also why the 9k rshared_pm goal?
