theyre turbo now???? NICE!

slowgreen99 07-13-2008 12:32 PM

240whp stock must be nice outta a 4 banger!

Matts94Z28 07-13-2008 12:41 PM

They advertise it as 260/260 stock :) It's definatly quick when it's in boost. I know it could walk a mustang and more than likely take and LT1 camaro from a roll, plus it averages 30mpg according to the display on the dash. I kinda want to take it to doechester tonight...

Nice looking car! Love the color!

jmd 07-13-2008 01:42 PM

looks good

slow94 07-13-2008 02:51 PM

I've ran the supercharged versions before, but not the turbo ones. It should be quicker seeing that the front wheel drive supercharged cars didn't do well from a stop.

Nice, I wish I could pick up one of the turbo ones. IF they do make the 260/260 advertised I dont figure 300/300 would be to hard to obtain. Probably keep 26-27 mpg that way to.

Matts94Z28 07-13-2008 07:21 PM

One shop did an an intake kit and muffler delete and made 273/307 at the wheels. The plasitc intake and IC pipe are a major restriction from what I have read. With those mods you can easily hold 20lbs of boost no problem. Right now it will hold 15 all day and spike to about 20.

Bradleyrj 07-13-2008 07:37 PM

I figure it would take a intake kit, exhaust, tune and maybe injectors depending on what's in them stock. 300 should be no problem. I wish Ford would answer with something to complete with this, the Evo and Suby's cars.

Matts94Z28 07-13-2008 08:07 PM

I think it would be a good move for ford to offer a turbo'd focus or something of the sort... I bet a turbo'd focus would sell like crazy.

LXtasy 07-13-2008 08:35 PM

They don't do to well against a s-10 from both a 50 and 70 roll. But I thought I heard eaton scream anyway.

Matts94Z28 07-13-2008 08:45 PM

I'm thinking about pulling the lower grill off so you can actually see the intercooler, what do you guys think?

Bradleyrj 07-13-2008 09:03 PM

I would pull it and see what it looks like. From the one picture directly from the front it looks like a big I/C

Matts94Z28 07-13-2008 09:37 PM

Yeah it's a decent size, I might do it tomorrow and see how her and I like it. If it looks crappy then I can just pop t back in...

slowgreen99 07-14-2008 09:36 AM
