Hey guys,

Where I live, Ford sold focus with the 2.0 Duratec Engine and the manual IB5+ transmission (I dont know if this transmission is available in the USA)

I wanted to buy one of these focus from a guy, but the IB5+ cant handle as much power and torque as the MTX-75 ! Does anyone know if a swap to fit the MTX-75 would be easily done? I would like to turbocharge this vehicle in the future

Thanks

Just to clarify,what model year is your "duratec" 2.0 powered car, and what country are we talking about?
