Good evening all, I am new to the group, so I wanted to test the water and see if anyone has tried or is looking at trying to turbo charge an 07-09 Fusion with a 5 speed manual. I bought this car a year ago because I wanted a manual tranny and this happened to be at a dealer nearby. I assume that a manual transmission is pretty rare (but that is becoming increasingly more common, much to my dismay) so I was wondering if anyone had tried or is in the process of turbo charging their car. Right now I am in limbo on how and when to do it. I know the engines are similar to the Focus RS, so it can't be impossible but could be difficult to upgrade. I know I need to replace one of the head gaskets soon so if head studs are needed, I would do it then. The clutch is in decent shape, it is the original clutch so I know I will need to replace it about time I start throwing power to it. I have some performance upgrade knowledge but it has mostly been diesel performance so I am coming in blind with gasoline engines as far as knowledge. I know I will need turning, and there is a great tuning shop nearby, so I would be using them. I kind of plan on amassing parts and doing the upgrades pretty much at one time. My dream would be having the car turbo'd, inter-cooled, short throw shifter, upgraded clutch, tuning to run on standard gas, and run about 6-7 PSI. Not looking for a barn burner or drag racer but a car that has some torque and gets decent fuel mileage. Any opinions or comments (that are not negative or rude) are appreciated. -
Just purchased a 2010 Fusion SEL 3.0 FWD with only 7100 miles. I won't disclose actual price but it was south of 14k. Leather, sunroof, automatic w select shift, sony audio package with SYNC, all power, dual exhaust, rear spoiler, non navigation stereo. This cat was sold to an 80 year old in 2010 brand new for 28k. She drove it home and parked it in her garage only drive to the hair salon, grocery, and church. She passed away Aug '15, RIP, and her daughter settled the estate. Lucky local ad troling turned up this deal, KBB and NADA value close to 17K. All stock. Looking for ideas and on reliable, smart upgrades. Aesthetically and performance. Starting with window tint, possible plasti dip (black) grill to preserve chrome, and Thule roof rack with cargo basket for travel. Thanks! Glad to be part of the Fusion family.
