Hey guys how is it going?
Been lurking around for quite some time, mainly the FS Forum for eye candy and lifestyle category wondering how ppl on here afford such toys haha.

Motor:
Cosworth ported head with Ferrea oversized valves and ferrea valve springs and retainers (better flow than SVT Head)
CGI Mountune Block with Eagle rods and Probe 9.5 forged pistons that's stronger than the WRC Focus Block.
HKS GT3037 S Turbo with HKS GTII 50mm Wastegate and HKS Racing Blow Off Valve, HKS Carbon-Ti Racing Exhaust and Type S Intercooler.
Bosch External Fuel Pump with a custom dual-fed fuel rail with HKS 1000cc Injectors.
All managed by HKS FCON V-PRO

Body:
House of Kolors two stage Kandy Orange with a Gold metallic Base. Custom Fabricated widebody fenders with Reiger Front Bumper and Wings West Sidekirts, Rear Bumper and Mid Wing.
Carbon Kevlar Orange/Black weave hood.
Euro-spec Tailights and ST170 Headlights, M3 mirrors.

Interior:
Sparco [Torino] Racing Seats, Grip Pedals and Mugello Steering Wheel. HKS Fuel Pressure, Oil Pressure, Water Temp and Boost Gauges. HKS Electronic Boost Controller. VDO Shift Light
Custom Full Digital Instrument Panel
Custom EM Racing Chassis Stiffening braces

Wheels/Suspension
19" Racing Hart C4 Multi-Piece Wheels wrapped in Toyo T1-R's
Tein Coilovers and a Progress Rear Sway Bar

Well, here are some pictures. My buddy and I just went on a photoshoot the other night, she's touching up some pics and will get them back to me soon. But for now, I hope these do

Those are pretty much all I have now. Sorry for the somewhat crappy pics. Most were just point and shoot. But it gets the point across, for now at least. As mentioned before I just recently did a much better photoshoot with both my cars, and I should get those up soon.

Well guys I'll see you all on the boards!

Nice! Its not as outrageous as I would think most SEMA cars to be.

What kind of boost/power are you making?

Nice power numbers for that car. Looks like a pretty clean build for the most part too.

1/4 mile times?

Very nice Focus. That's good numbers for a small motor. How heavy is the car? Have you taken it down the track? Nice car!
