That Focus Fanatic magazine, when it first came out, featured a Focus with an '03 Cobra 4.6 under the hood. Crazy stuff :)

I'd like to have a V8-motivated Focus. That'd be sweet.

BTW- how the hell did they manage to fit a 351 under the stock hood, when it won't even fit under the stock hood on a Mustang?

If you look at the engine bay on a focus they are alot taller than a Mustang. The other thing is they also drop the engine ferther down with the K member.

and why don't we get an RS in the states again, oh wait, that would make sense..

, can you imagine a 351 in a car that weights 2800... too much fun.

That's badass.  I wouldn't know what to think if I heard a deep muscle roar come from a Focus.

I want to buy a highmile focus then get the kugel kit and a 4.6 cobra motor :headbang: :headbang:. But all this is nothing more than a dream when your unemployed.

Last summer they had an auto thing at the mall where I work, where a bunch of dealers bring up cars and display them out in the lot in front of my store (used & new). One of the places had a newer SVT Focus, I think about an '03-'04? It had the anthracite "spoke" wheels on it and was yellow, and dare I say it looked pretty sweet. I just wish I woulda gone out and looked at it, but I never did.

I'm just waiting for my mom to give up on her '00 ZX3.  Hopefully I can get my hands on it some day.

If I remember right, there was a few videos over at http://www.ford-v8-focus.com/ . Sound and all. This was a couple years ago though...doubt the same ones are there.

I just figured i would put this in here instead of making a new thread.

Minus the outrageous wing and overdone GFX on this (http://www.turbomagazine.com/features/0108tur_focus/) its the focus Fr200 Turbo.

That focus is sweet. Brings back memories of the yellow Cavalier that was on ebay a year or so ago with a 454.
