The 17's are a done deal, I needed a second set of wheels/tires anyways as I commute a long distance everyday and sorely missed having dedicated snow tires this past winter (made for some sweet white knuckle driving).
As for a clutch, I literally just had a brand new one (and a new flywheel and slave) put in by Ford under warranty a few weeks back (see my thread here: http://www.focuscanada.net/forum/index.p...pic=23619).
That being said, the 10lb Procharger kit should make mid 190's whp (possibly 200 but 190's is close enough for me and more realistic) and torque in the mid 160 to mid 170 lbs range. I'm fairly certain I read the stock clutch can handle this power easily, is that not true?
As for the lsd, the tranny would definitely need to be pulled in order to toss it in there. I agree that an lsd would be nice, but is it going to happen this year? Probably not.
There will be a whole host of future mods, but I have to keep "Stage 1" at a realistic and achievable goal.
To update the status of the project, the suspension is going on tomorrow night, Ford didn't have the lca parts so its in the shop still.
Wheels/tires are mounted/balanced and ready to go on after the alignment is done. If you saw my rear tires you'd know why I keep referencing the new wheels/tires. :D
Keep the opinions coming!
