Instead Of Starting With Bolt Ons...

Better yet, build an entire motor for boost and then boost it. You'll see upwards of 300WHP with the right internals and turbo/intercooler combo and with a LSD and a brake upgrade it will be a killer ride.

So, in the meantime a good upgrade parts set is an upgraded suspension, lightweight rims, good sticky rubber, a big brake kit, maybe some HIDs, sport seats, an X-Cal2 or 3 and then buy the new shortblock and get to it.

http://www.focussport.com has one of the best all-inclusive setups for any Focus out there as far as forced induction goes.

EDIT - don't forget your winter tires if you're driving during the span between November and April :P
