okay...i would like to know what mods everybody has done, engine wise...and i would really love your feedback...and before you tell me to search don't even bother...i need feedback more than i actually need to know how to press the search button
well i just got my svt about a month ago.... but as for mods, i have...
AEM Cold Air Intake
Catback Exhaust...
that's about it...i really want to get the Diablo Predator, and have it tuned by Tom, but money is an issue right now... future plans for my car: definitely upgrade the suspension, throttle body, underdrive pulleys, upgrade the fuel and ignition systems, short shifter, and i want to get Tom's Stage 2 Turbo kit....

GROUP-B!!!!
R.I.P Aayrton Senna DaSilva 1960-1994 (Best F1 driver in the World...)
Have installed - FC 65mm TB, AEM CAI, Ford Racing plugwires. Need to install - FC cam gears, 2000 ported intake manifold, FC race header. Purchasing in next 4-6 weeks - FR Borla cat back, flex pipe. When I get the cat back I will also be dyno tuning my cam gears and see what my #'s will be.
Suspension - Eibach sportline springs and pro dampers.
Show
98 Euro RS front bumper, SVT radio surround and A/C controls, Custom(cut) STS, FC A/C control knobs, Ichibach lighter and shifter knob, FR floor mats.
Near Future
When the weather warms up in the next few weeks I will be painting my interior(just the vent surrounds and maybe the door handle), stock rims - gunmetal, I may try to do my side molding and hatch strip too. Power window/locks with custom window switches mounted in the center somwhere.
Focus Central T/B = stellar! Improved take off and better calibrated (IMO) idle
K&N Typhoon= Loud, well built piece. Some consider it too pricey but I enjoy it and consider it money well spent.
Focus Central ORP, GEN II = What a boost in power. Easy install and it's power that you can no doubt feel. Fumes are a little much so this part is used on race days only.
Focus Sport STB = Not too shaby. I picked mine up used for very little cash so it was worthwhile.

FYI - This group is so far from being like a bunch of those "other" places. We don't tell you to do a search...hell, we usually give you the link if that's the case
Me, right now, nothing on the 2k3 save a Strut Tower Bar and clear markers...nothing with the go yet, oh, wait - it's a 2.3 Duratec PZEV! Now that's different. lol

hello blk svt foci these are the mods on my '04 cd silver svt zx3, steeda cold air short intake, this one was my very first mod and although the sound of the car change some what,the price paid for it really wasn't worth it, maybe if it was less $$$? the next one was the focus central svt tb and it drove a little bit better, again for the price??? whell! anyways after that i got the steeda stainless exhaust w/the focus central off rd pipe,w/all this combo the car got a bit louder and it made some what of a difference in performance. however i wanted more so i got the underdrive pulley kit w/the alternator pulley included frm focus central and did not feel that much diff? go figure.?! got also a performance distributor coil and live wire for the plugs could not tell much difference, but again i am an extremist and i never have enough. i then got a clutch master stg4 w/their lightweight flyhweel and that made a big difference.the last thing i added to it was tom's focus-power full custom turbo kit and it is awsome, sort fo scary fast, you really got to hang on to the steering wheel or you will end up on the sidewalk or something. i got it dynoed and was putting 326whp and 330trq to the wheels. should be able to do the 1/4 mile in12's full trim car. i did pull up to a 400hp gto the other night and walked away from it, what a blast i only wish i could of seen the drivers face. anyways.out side i got a full evo 3 carbon fiber kit but you don't just slap it on there is alot of custom touch ups you have to do,that includes everything else i have put on my car, is a drag sometimes because company's lie to sell you their products specially body kits, any ways i got a fusion carbon fiber hood and a carbon fiber hatch w/ a steeda wing and eye brows. custom koni's from f2 focusperformance. we are running 19lbs of boost.believe it or not this is not fast enough so we are taking everything a part getting an icg block that they use on the rally focus racing team forged everything to reach 500whp that's our goal, we use our focus for time attacks and 1/4 mile runs.
