Smile newbie Focus mk2 2.0 tdci - HELLO

Hello everyone.

Just joined the forum, and time to introduce myself.

Im Tiago, 21 and bought 05 Focus mk2 a couple months ago. Its 2.0 tdci, so lots of power. A major improvement to my old pug 206 as it was a 1.4 hdi -.-

I started with some minor modding, some white LED's inside, aero wipers, and white Leds on number plate.
Finally got some 6000k Hids and they look so good
Only got this pics at the moment, but will get more soon

Looking to increase some bhp , so would be really helpfull if you could give some advice, like remap or induction kit, and which one you recommend . also heard of fuel boost valve ??
looking to get some more power out of this baby, looking to hear from you experts

Sorry Tiago, forum terms & conditions stipulate that new members cannot post links or images until the have contributed at least 10 posts.
Don't worry that won't take long on here & then you can show us your car in the gallery section or maybe you'd like to start a W.I.P thread?

Hope you enjoy your time with the forum.

Loz.

hey and welcome to the site mate.

fuel boost valves are just higher pressure regulators wont add power at all and def wont do anything for your diesel as they are meant for petrols. an 05 should be common rail so your looking in excess of around 200 times what most power boost valves can handle already.

induction kit may add a little but generally diesels flow pretty well.
remap will be your best bang for buck, but after that i would say look at handling mods after that otherwise your talking into the bigger money to get power. such as hybrid or big turbo upgrades
