Default 50 Trim SRT-4 vs Modified Focus SVT

SVT Focus mods that i could see: Red stripes, sport seats (red),gauges (dont know what gauges) but made me think he was running FI, Exhaust (fart can), big wing, ect+.

I was on my way from F.A.U on Federal Highway (US 1) when i spot a very sporty car, so i did accelerate to see what kind of car was and i saw a SVT Focus bagde which reminds me of the S197 GT that got destroyed by a focus possible running Nitrous. So anyways at that moment i was not minding my own bussiness any more but rather i fight from this sporty car when all the sudden he did not like my company next to him and he flew by me (Dont mess around with me) so i followed right behind him and caught a red light. I was able to see that he was checking my big *** intercooler from his mirror [8D], he did not seem to care and a took off rather quick and i followed him at 40mph since the road was clear i changed lane and shifted to third and blew his doors away like he was standing still. The funny thing is that when i was passing him the 50trim was screaming loud as hell man i love big turbos, sure it is not as sexy as the whine of a supercharger but it does scary the OP. I was expecting a lot more from this SVT focus but i guess he just modified the car to looks nice rather than fast. But then again why the gauges ??

good kill. Looks like you ran into a cosmetic focus. Although he could've had a supercharger because I heard jackson makes them for those focus's. Although i've heard nothing but bad things about them not making barely any power.

on my defense i thought he was running FI, he had like 3 gauges so it must have been one for the headlights, one for gas, and the other one for the radio lol

I've always been partial to the cars... they make a badass little vortech kit for it, I was debating getting this car/setup before I got the stang

now that they are coming down into the single digits for the whole car you see people get ahold of them and turn them into supercharged strokers alot around here

I've seen people with air/water/engine or trans temp guages.
