Oh gosh another Canadian. Are you going to argue that your province is the best images/smilies/tongue.gif

Cool Cobra and cool list of previously owned cars. All Fords lol.

The Focus SVT?? Is that the equivelent of the ST180 or the RS in the States?

I wish it was like a RS...lol
Its 170HP N/A...sadly no turbo or blower, it does handle very well but it lacks that extra power. It Dyno'd at 147 at the front wheels...a far cry compared to the Cobra that dyno'd at 480 RWHP and 493 tq.
But it makes a great daily driver, fun on corners and great on gas with a 6 speed manual.
Sadly I travel to the US more then in Canada, and the only other prov I have been to is Quebec to snowboard...so to answer your question...no...but we make dam fine BEER images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Beautiful Cobra there. Love the color.

And SL65, the SVT Focus is the equivalent of the ST180. We're not cool enough to get the RS. Ever. images/smilies/cry.gif

Dark_Templer_102 · December 31st, 2005, 7:29 PM

Even though the HQ is located in America...Seriously i would like the RS here then what we are getting now...

Sexy cars, but why was the first picture missing its right side headlight..?

To get clean cold air into the engine bay/intake. Common practices with drag racing.

Correct...The air intake is located directly behind the passenger side headlight. If you look in the engine pic you can see I have a 12" K&N air filter which is completely open. It actually makes a .3 difference in the 1/4 with the headlight out. Takes about 30 seconds to take it out and put it in.
I drag race alot, On this car I have approx 96 passes with a best of 11.92@116.5mph and a worse of...well...lets just say a miss shift will give you a 15second slip on this car... images/smilies/mellow.gif

BerserkerCatSplat · December 31st, 2005, 11:40 PM

Holy crap, in the 11's! What have you done to the engine so far? I hear the SVT's can make huge numbers with just a larger exhaust system and a smaller blower pulley.

you got it!

2.8 pulley
12" K&N
Bassani X pipe
Magnaflow Cat Back
X-Calibrator for the tune
Tuned by Chris Johnson from SCT
460RWHP and 476TQ >94 Octane (safe)

I have a 480 and 493 tune but the a/f is on the high side
and with the warm summers here I only used it once.
It did not give me a better 1/4 time.

The best mod I did was the Mickey Thompson Drag Radials <dot>
and the IRS aluminum bushings to remove wheel hop.
