Is there any engine upgrades on a Saleen Focus or is it all body kit?  I have a friend at work who wants to race all the time but refuses to come to the track.  I am there evey Wed and Fri and he is off when I am but always a no show.  I know its the non nitrous model but even with spray its laughable.  Just wanted to know if they are any faster then any other focus out there.  Thanks for the help. 

 

If you are reading the Wesley you need to bring your body kit to the track so I can show you what a fast car looks like.

Well, street racing is stupid, so if that is what your friend wants, they're nutz!

If it is the Saleen, as stated the link it does have engine modifications.

Depending on what you're driving and what he really has under the hood there could be an excellent race there.

I do know of an excellent supercharger kit that would spank a whole lotta cars out there and shock the pants off of a lot of ppl. who doubt the Focus' potential as a modified car.

I have the PZEV 2.3 Duratec and I know for a fact that it has more oomph than the stocker ZX3's out there even with all of the restriction of the stock box and exhaust.  I could pull a lot more HP out of it if I were to take off the air filter and add a CAI and change out my exhaust.

it looks like (minus the nitrus) about the same as the 05 ST.  wich i think our PZEV 2.3l would do with the mods chelly describes, maybe even better.

my guess is it's modified, but not too much.

I just realized...your name has the SRT in it.  My assumption would be that you have the SRT Neon maybe? So turbo vs nitrous...it'd be a good race.

Not to mention: It's not always the car, a lot has to do with the driver

I still want one of those PowerWorks SC!:driv

And that links only for the 2.0!!!!
