Coming back from eau claire ( walking ) with 5 of my buddies or so going through two of those 2 lane streets form eau claire and then i hear a focus behind me going slowly and I hear a turbo inside the engine wihtout the turbo kicking in. and we where at a red light and he just came and he had some music on and then he was talking to his girlfriend and i am like "rev it up" he does't say anything just looks straight it turns green i am like "Hey buddy" while he was about to take off he turns the music down hes like yo? I am like you got a turbo in there dont ya hes like yeah.. I am like LETS HEAR IT!. then the guy revs it up and fucking floros it and did that thing fucking fly he was on the other light under 2-3 seconds. when he took off some guy yelled "Get a real car" ROfl and he was walking himself. Anyways it was a brand new 2003 ford focus svt blue color with custom black rims it was tight. anyone else seen this bad boy around?


SORRY NO PICS! DONT CARY A DIGITAL CAMERA WITH ME! WISH I DID!.

Blow Off Valve;

Just throwing something out there to try and understand how you might hear the turbo without it kicking in.

what the fuck u talking about? i said the turbo kicked in after the guy reved it up on the green light and flew off he was cruising at 20-30 km/h before he came to the red stop. Sorry i am clumsy at explaning this bullshit i failed english. English is my 4th language

Your explanation is fine. But it doesn't make any sense. You don't just hear a turbo "kick in", especially at a light.

alright sorry dude. english is my second language......

k so i guess you heard the turbo whine? is that what you are trying to say?

i just dont understand what you mean by "kicking in".

when a turbo car revs up you can usually hear a whine, and then when the driver lets off the throttle, there is a release of air from the blow off valve..........

yes the turbo whine i dont know how u guys call that shit over here but when the turbo makes that noise pssh kssh... thats what we call kick in

It doesn't 'Kick in', it spools up.

I think that those are two separate things. A turbo can spool up and not be engaged. I think by 'kick in' he is talking about the turbo actually being engaged.

By the way BOV is a Blow Off Valve i think you need to brush up on your knowledge before running out with all this Crazy talk. Turbos take time to spool but they don't just suddenly Kick in haha.?? Weird<

the SVT focus isn't turbocharged. it was probably a focus cosworth.

:werd: Give the guy a break...not everyone knows the terminology for turbo's. Instead of making fun of his explanation, be more like the few that replied trying to help. It wouldn't surprise me if there is a turbo'd Focus SVT. Some of you guys make it sound like it's impossible to turbo the Focus.

Someone on Beyond has an SVT focus and was or is preparing it for a turbo, don't know his name but I saw his car at a westhills meet. Maybe it was him?:dunno:
