Yeah, but I know that some FWD cars with too much HP and not having a LSD they would just hop the axles and make the car swerve left and right without spinning the tires...I remember my friends dad had a Dodge Stealth that suffered from this very badly...
I wouldn't really bother with boosting my Escape anyways...pretty much the only other mods I might do, is to put the bigger rims from the explorer sport track or something similar on it, with some summer or A/S tires, and keep the 16's for the winter. Might also replace some of the factory stereo with aftermarket too as it wears out (or if my wife blows it up...lol).
I think Ford is waiting to see how well the current 2010+ Fusion Sport does, and iirc think they have short term plans to put the Ecoboost in it eventually to make an ST or SVT type model...
