Zetec 1.8 Turbo


Ford Focus 1.8L Zetec Turbo

Profile:
Ford Focus 1.8L Zetec Turbo Conversion 239 BHP
Zetec Turbo conversion by Bailey Performance performed on a standard Ford Focus 1.8L…this is what the Focus chassis was crying out for!
How about Focus RS power without the price tag?? Try this, we are talking 239bhp and 253lb/ft of torque from a standard Zetec 1.8 engine!…(and I know what your thinking…those performance figures are actually MORE than a Focus RS!!
Install includes a Megasquirt programmable ECU and Innovate LC-1 wide band closed loop control. This proven combination allows the car to meet MOT emission standards and return good MPG despite the staggering increase in performance.
Forced induction conversions available for all Zetec powered vehicles…….Turn your Zetec into an RS killer!!
Engine Specification:
Standard 1.8L Zetec engine
Zetec turbo conversion carried out by Bailey Performance
EDIS ignition
Megasquirt ECU
Innovate LC-1 wide band closed loop control
239 bhp and 253 lb/ft of torque


Who says you need a 2.0

These guys have turboed a 1.8, I believe its running standard comp ratio of 10:1 and I dont know how they managed that, but it must be running low boost.

Obviously fuelling and ignition must be spot on or the engine would blow itself to bits with detonation.

The above figures of 239bhp/253 lb/ft are impressive for a 1.8

Heres the video they took on the rollers.

Good Tuning Books

Ive bought quite a few tuning books in the past, some of which were not so good while others were excellent.
I'm the sort of person who likes to own reference books, especially tuning related both engine and electrics.
Ive posted links to some of the better books you should consider when beginning tuning as a diy or hobby mechanic, right through to suit experienced tuners.
You can view the books on the Zetec Tuning page.
