Ahh time to start spending more money on my svtf and I need the forums help! Just looking for performance parts that are easily affordable let's say up to 500 dollars or so, my signature has all the upgrades that I currently have on my focus, just looking for some more! If you do find more please leave a link to get to them thank you!

Tom's tune for sure. Don't spend your money on anything else. That's what I'm saving for currently.

Doesn't it make a difference how many different parts I have on the focus? I would rather get all the little stuff before I get his tune unless it doesn't matter what I have installed, but idk that.

You already have more parts than would make a difference on the SVT.
Get Tom's tune. He offers free updates to the tune as long as you stay NA so there is no reason not to get it right away.

why do you have an AEM alternator pulley???

it will slow your alternator down, and not fully charge your battery.

The SVTF has the smallest stock alternator pulley out of ALL zetec engines.

dont mean to get off topic or anything. but i'd like to know more about "tom's tune". how do i get Tom's tune? How much does it cost?

I currently have a Diablosport Predator Tuner and i did install the performance tune. would tom's tune work with my predator?

so toms tune would work with my predator? would tom's tune be better than my diablosport performance tune?

Contact Tom and I think you can buy a package deal through him: flasher + tune.

That sounds like a post you might see on craigslist [poke]

Def not worth the money compared to a good reflash. A worth while mod for throttle response, but considering what the OP has done, a tune would make his car run far better than just a TB.

you have your information incorrect. actually the SVT alternator has a higher amperage than that of the regular zetec.

IIRC the zetec is 90a and the SVTF is 110
