What Has Been Your Favorite Mod...
#21
I'd have to say the HID headlights are the mod I'm most glad I did every time I drive at night.

Mechanically.......SC
Appearance........the kit was already done, but it adds so much to the car. But from what we have done, the ST170's are smokin.
Handling........can't have the go without the lowering kit.
What the chicks dig...........me. Of course.
TEAM PITA Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.

One day I will rule the world. For now, I have to settle for this place.

Tough call.

I'm going to have to go with

1) MBRP - gave it a lot more pep & a nice growl.

1) MM CAI - really got that motor sucking air. And the fake turbo whine/whistle is fun.

1) SCT tune - Really improved performance. Its like night & day. Shifts the auto a lot harder/sharper, and raising shift points helps keep it in power.

I can't narrow it down :(

Other than the other likely suspects (boost, header, exhaust, suspension, tires,) a couple of things that actually made the car funner to drive:

Aftermarket pedals (Steeda)
Focus Central throttlebody

I am a big fan of 'heel & toe' shifting and the puny stock gas pedal and the stiffly sprung stock TB made it difficult to blip the throttle during downshifts.

I've had different TBs in my car (stock, BBK, Jackson Racing) and nothing beats the feel of the FC. In order to blip the gas while braking you need something bigger than the stock pedal.

All my Euro Upgrade, including badging, but more so hooking up the rear foglight, makes me feel much better knowing I'll be seen more easily in fog and bad weather by other drivers.
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

Well, I have no mods done on my '07 ST yet so I'll say the Foglight mod on my gf's ZX5.
She likes, I like it, we all like it :)
Oh... almost forgot, my ST will be getting a Focus Sport stress bar :) (on order)

I am with Fader, I love my K&N Typhoon intake. Sounds so nice. I also liked my MOMO seats but I had to sell them. I will be replacing them at some point. But my next install is going to be an MBRP exhaust.
