Well I came down on orders to finally get out of recruiting and go back to the regular army. Looks like i'll be moving to Ft Hood in June. I'm in a big push to get the focus running before the move so that i'll be able to bring that down and see if I can't hurt anybodies feeling. :) But the one thing i'm really excited about is the fact that I'll get to finally attend some events in person instead of having to see recaps on here.

Look forward to seeing some of you'll soon

Sad that you wont be able to make it back up here for some events this summer. Hope things go well for you in Texas, I'm sure the MN group will see you down there for TX2K11 and other events :thumbsup:

Well I'll be up there for The May 1st C&C event next weekend. So we should have a good time then. Unfortunatly I won't be down there for TX2k11 I'll be in Iraq but when I get back I should have some new toys so thats a good thing as well.

If I get it running then yes i'm going to bring it with as well. that gives me a little more than a month to get it running and tuned. I've made allot of progress in the last two weeks with the AEM system. Now i'm stuck in a timing situation that I can't figure out on it. It's real close to firing up thou so maybe by the end of this week she will be alive again after a year and a half of being down.

well not looking like i'm going to have the focus down there. not yet anyways. I need different injectors to get it running and tuned and bringing it down for 2 months doesn't make any sense to me when I concider the logistics of everything plus then having to get it back up to wisconsin when i deploy. So instead i'm going to try to put cams in the stang and tune that before i move down.

booooooooooooooooooooooooo.


it only costs about 500-700 to have a focus shipped down...claim it as travel expenses.

lol i wish I could. I really want the damn thing running already but all in due time. The focus will be moved down when I get back from iraq next fall then it should be running, tuned and ready for damage or at least ready for me to start breaking more parts on it. LOL

hey focus, you wouldn't happen to have any injectors lying around would you? I need anything that is a standard ford injector. Don't care the size just so long as it's bigger than 14lbs injectors. I have 160lb injectors in the car right now with a resistor box and I can't get them to spray a small enough pattern for the car to fire up. If I can get the car to fire up then i'll pay for some actual injectors and get it tuned otherwise I'm ditching the AEM and going to a HALTECH platinum box and taking the rest of all the ford crap out of the car.

and a set of 50's brand new


160's are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY overkill.

you should be fine with 60's or maybe 72's
