Its a 03 svt focus....some engine mods and some cosmetic.
sitten only at about 190hp now....but a procharger will be going on soon, and will boost me up to 300+.....(if all goes well).
Good friend of mine yura took these pictures..."amazing at photography"
im trying to go for a euro / sleeper look.
So yeah, just wanted to see what everyone thinks?
Thanx.

Looks good another Silver SVT.

VERY nice pics!!! Your friend does good work. Nice looking car you got there too. Only thing I would change is add some clear marker lights in the front bumper to replace those stock orange ones.

Thats a bold claim, you must be planning on cranking up the boost because most SVTf's with procharges usually spit out around 250hp. Power too you if you do it (hopefully you've built up the block & such already), I'd love to see it because you don't see many SVTf's that break 300.

I think the car looks great except for the tails. If your going Euro, then put the Euro tails on.

Other than that you are definately getting a 9.9/10 IMO.

+1 for changing the tail lights. nice car!

on the pro charger web site......it says with 10 psi it has 65% more hp...
so 190 x 0.65=123.5hp gain.
and 190+123.5 = 313.5 hp.

or am i wrong?

and + pro chargers can put out a hell of a lot more power then the vortec supercharger and jacksonsracing charger.

because its and itercooled centrifugal supercharger it can pump way more power!!

o and ive bin looken everywhere for thows corner side markers in clear?!?!?
and i cant find them anywhere....
anyone know where i could pic some up?
I live in edmonton.

sorry not trying to be a post whore but i do know a guys here that used to work at freedom ford (one of the svt dealers) and he was running about 285-295hp on a stock block.
and he only had these upgrades like me....
new injectors
cool air intake (one comes with the procharger kit)
new throttle body
new full borla exhaust system (on its way)
and it chiped and dynoed properly by someone that know what they are doing......
he ran 91 octain and got 295ish......
and i think that was only at 8psi.
but i guess we will see what happens.

stock svts produce 170hp and about 145whp............

what mod do you have to be at 190 hp?

where are you getting 190HP from? stock SVT is rated at 170HP.

its a very good looking car.

NICE SVTF

WAS LOOKING AT THE PROCHARGER ALSO....

IM STILL COVERED UP THE ASS WITH WARRENTY THOUGH

Vortech's HO kits are intercooled... so technically, with similar compressors and drive ratios, they'll be about the same as the procharger units.

new injectors
steeda short ram cool air intake.
new throttle body 65mm
chiped, and reprogramed and dynoed properly by someone that know what they are doing.
my test sheet rated at 189.8. hp at 7100.rpm

new full borla exhaust system (on its way)
more flow should give it another 5hp or so...

Im not trying to be an ass, but an SVT focus makes maybe 150whp, the mods you listed will no way in hell net you 190whp. That or your tuner made a way to aggresive tune and your engine will not last.

Trust me. ;)
