I have driven both cars with the engine and while it is actually very quick in focus, it is more than enough in mondeo to, with only a hit of hesitation off the line. Very responsive and has the most important thing of all - TORQUE :
The TDCI uses a diesel straight from peugot and yes is from the focus,i think the drop in kw may be due to ECU mapping for the car,or maybe drop in back pressure created by the exhuasts profile..Also the fact that is had 4kw has nothing to do with it being 6speed manual,because manufacturers almost always are referring to power at the flywheel,and in this case they are.
