I once refered to Ford Focus 2.0TDCi review in Taiwanese web, and get to know that the twin-clutch Getrag Powershift gearbox used in this car could stand up to 450NM of torque max. IMHO adding 20%-25% of power to this car by chip tuning shouldn't be any problem.
Focus TDCi is in my top wishlist for passenger car. having additional torque 25% is not a problem for most cars because u r not always running at max torque, it is only max up during startup. even if u have more torque, the tire grips will eventually slips first and not your clutch!

for the speed cut, Vector can helps it because the signal is coming from ECU. Vector helps u to get to the limit faster

Hi Tazztham,
Agree with you that remap alone would increase 20% of power. I dyno the car after remap then installed the original map before dyno again.It seem that the ecu still reading the advance map(usually it take hours to a few days before the ECU settle down with each new map!!).so the dyno with original map show only slightly down HP at 3700 rpm.( i still don't know the max HP of my car..need to dyno again at a complete dyno centre.do you know any??)
yes the original filter is in really bad shape and cost almost half the K & N price!!
But for any turbodiesel owner here.." please go and get any remap,tuning chip or whatever they called...then install free flow intake like K & N....later remove the Diesel Particulate Filter ....hihihihihi bye bye petrol"

Hi Kvslott,
DKTUNING, his name is Dylan, base in penang but currently he is in sepang . He will make sure you are satisfied with the remap performance and do door to door. I can't put the contact no here, send me personal message then i gave you his no.
just last week I ran 160 to 180 from KL to penang with ease in my Rexton ( 140 in hilly IPOH!!!)
Cheers
