ATI Motorsports swapped a full '03 Cobra drivetrain into an '03 Focus. 32v 4.6L, supercharger, converted to rear drive with the Cobra tranny, transplanted all of the Cobra's electronics along with the gauge cluster.

That thing was NUTS. It's the only time I've ever wanted a Focus.

Yeah, that was a pretty cool swap.

I know there are more bolt ons out there,\ that i have not installed yet.

Is this a list of your current mods?
I dont think 93s had knock modules on them.

Get some DR's n a 300 shot, you should be able to take him. JK
assuming it is the SVT, not the ZX3 (which is slower), were talking like a 15.9 1/4 stock http://www.car-videos.net/performanc...p?id1=23&id2=0. So...with a turbo you think he'd pick up 2 seconds? about what youd run with a stock LT1 (appx. 14). You have twice the low end torque as him, if you really would like to embarass him just do it from lower rpms for him so he has to spool up to make any difference. As long as you can drive your car (With mods listed) you will have NO problem beating him.

The purpose of the LT1/LT4 Engine Tech forum is not to ask how your car will run against some other car. There may be a lot of knowledge here, but its selfish for you to ignore the rules and post your question, forcing the valid LT1 Engine posts off the bottom of the screen.

Moving.....

PLEASE follow the guidelines.
