Lucky me
 
When I bought my svt focus the guy told me it was stock and I was fine with that.

I finally got around to fixing the stock suspension that has been sagging pretty bad and I glanced at the exhaust when I was under there and what did I see but this

I always thought the car sounded good for an SVT and I honestly wasn't familiar enough with them to know the difference (I thought they all had a shiney exhaust tip)

That one expensive cat-back!!
What are your plans for the suspension?

Lazerred6 03-28-2010 11:44 AM

Just putting new stock stuff on.

I did some research and the eibach kit would only lower the car but not add any noticable performance. I don't have the cash to throw arond to spring for coil overs right now and I got new shocks/struts/springs and a sway bar for like 200$ (i'm going to sell the sway bar on craigslist cause mine is fine)

I may toss on a strut tower brace later on but I just think they look cool

mods to come are
ORP
93 octane tune
engine mounts

I'm also hopefully putting on new pads and rotors tonight and I am going to change the tranny fluid soon with RP cause I think it can shift smoother than it does

it also needs a new fuel filter and spark plugs (plugs are going in tonight with new wires)

As long as no body kit ever touches that car, you have my approval.

Also, it'd be pretty cool if you did this ;)

NICE DUDE! I had the center exit Borla system and loved the sound with no cats. Sound real deep and pretty badass for a little 2.0l focus.

That's pretty damn cool, Ben. Too bad I wasn't that lucky when I bought Spooky. Pop the hood and find a KB under that bitch... fuck yeah.
