the dyno chart says it all...


on 91 octane.. I sooo want one...

Wow :blink: I wonder how close they could get to those numbers with the 2.0L Duratec?

:D :D God, that is simply awsome.

Thats awesome. Makes me wish I had the 2.3 Duratec instead of the Zetec.

well, considering that this engine is running low compression hardware, I think you could do the same with the zetec, but you'd be introducing a little bit more turbo lag.

I wish I had the money for a built motor...

Cosworth rods are on sale from FS for $499USD
Cosworth pistons are $749....yikes.

Cant wait for that garage and storing the fofo next winter. :D :D

So that's what a 12-15K worth of mods and time, that's not really that impressive.

When you build a bullet proof motor and tune it correctly it should make big power, but that's just far too much money for only 350 HP.

no kidding...

there comes a point tho, where I'd say, "if I had the money to blow, a 350HP focus would be hella fun".

Of course i would already have a G35 and Saturn Sky at that point.

Yeah but then all you would have to do is spend 5G with Tom to get more than that power.

Impressive HP #. But I don't have much interest in a 350HP FWD car.

but then it wouldn't be 91 pump gas.

That is a sweet amount of HP...putting it up in the realm of the SRT and WRX and whatnot, and in a lighter vehicle than either of them to boot...sweetness...

I'd do that to a Wagon, but only if it was for less dough...

Beings thats the same motor in the Fusion, I wonder if anyone will try to install that kit in it. THose are some pretty swweet numbers.

Imagine if someone made a kit for the 3.0L. :blink:

i can only dream.

must change pants :o

Apparently it's next to impossible to put anything in the engine bay of a Fusion...well, the 3.0L anyways...I've looked, and I agree, you'd be hard-pressed to even fit a CAI in there.

Waiting to see if the Fusion ST or SVT comes out in the next 18 months...3.5L with 250-275hp on tap....nice...

Still think the HP figures on that FS Foci is sweet azz

man I'm just mad that the 2.3l motor wasn't an option when I picked up my car. Only the sedan had that option for the 2.3 duratec

hopefully it will produce some good tracks times and not just be a dyno queen.

not only to mention its not that impressive since there are 2.0L focus motors producing that same power.

Go call up Noble and get a engine from them :D They use duratec's 3.0L in their cars
