I believe w/ Tom's tuning, you can run 7-9psi on stock bottom end. The one in the Video has a complete built long block also. From what I understand, they will push at total of 22psi when done, so we shall see....
Who cares about psi? I'm pushing 15-18...that sure as hell doesn't mean I'm fast/powerful (as seen by my low 15sec quartermile trap).
Those stock bottom ends are good for 360's to the wheels with race gas and proper tuning (as seen by the Pectel tuned MM&FF Focus). I'd hate to see how much was dumped into that car. Hopefully the owner is VERY happy.
Sorry to sound like a sudden Focus/Escort hater. I'm VERY bitter with my whole experience, and I am really beating myself up for wasting all my money/time on that piece of shit.
