woops i for got 2 write down, cat back exhaust wit high flow cat. my bad, so i should just go wit cams, do u have any brand that u like. thanks for the help. how many mor part do i need to add b4 i start beating my friends gsr u think.
 
i think FR2's should help a lot, but they go best with a ported head. also, gutting it out will help a bit. theres too many variables for me to tell u with certainty that you'll beat a gsr. but just for s.n.g's how much faster is he than you?

ummm i think he is 170 to the crank? so thats like 150 to the wheels maybe? hes like a car length ahead. i keep him tell 3rd then hes gone lol. im the only focus in my town that has anything done to it so ive became the pray for hondas and vw lol. the crossworth kit says, wit stage 1 and 2 u can get 220 hp? is that true if so i would be more then happy to spend a couple of grand to get it. i def. going to look at the cames today thanks

i just checked the power works supercharger out, would i need to do any internal work to get ready for it and wil i have to get it tuned? thanks. tghat kit is looking real promising for me!!!!
 
no internals if u leave it at stock boost, the ecu gets reprogrammed by powerworks ie you wont need dyno tuning, and lots of people love it!!!

awesome!!!! thats sound like a plane, my friend is trying to say i will get better bang for my buck wit a turbo? the tubo i was looking at was on focus sport.com, the stage 2 puts out the same as the supercharger for the same price but they only have it for the duratec. i think the super charger would be better,mainly becaus no lag and an easyer install?[???:)]

pretty cool... i dont know too much about them but they run pretty good

Precision Turbo
http://focus.c-f-m.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=401
good turbo, nice spool-up good power but it has some design flaws

Roush Turbo

Everything you need but not carb approved

Used Procharger
http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=99370
need a few things extra to make it work but have proven to make good power

If you go with any of these you can use the following items as well. (dont use the udp with the procharger, or any supercharger for that matter)
Ported 2000 intake mani and UDP's

i was kinda thinking about that, but its not realy my daily driver. i have a zx5 as my daily driver, but once i get a turbo in it im pretty sure i might wanna make it my daily driver so the smog would be an issue. so sc is the best way it seems. y is the turbo not able to pass smog? thanks for the help
 
yeah you should go with the powerworks. then you can sell your throttle body and intake to soften the blow.
 
that sounds like a plan, i would also say get a SCT excal2 and get the computer tuned with it. The tune is good with the powerworks kit but you can make more power with the excal2, mcnewsautomotive.com does it all the time.-Jon
