JP-12 Posted April 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Not tryna be annoying or sound stupid hahah but I haven't been able to work on my car for a couple weeks and it just makes me think about doing more and more to it haha. The problem is there aren't high output alts for my car yet so I can't really do much more power wise. So, I was wondering if any of you have some ideas to throw at me for some random visual or performance upgrades I can do in the meantime while waiting for a possible alternator option in the future. I have been looking through some of the other focus build logs and haven't really found much of the visual or performance side. I've tinted my windows and plasti dipped my rims so far.

Bship Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 fswerks.com exhaust, wouldn't recommend the k&n intake, get one of the other ones. H&R coilovers, better engine mount, upgrade sway bars, a couple places doing tuning for the car, one is injected engineering and the one I would go with focus-power.com there are lots of things you can do with it.

JP-12 Posted April 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I was looking at the K&N intake a while back but the guy I'm pretty sure I can't even get it shipped to me cuz it's not street legal in CA. But I could be mistaken. I heard that an intake would help with the sad puttering when taking off, it's like a grandma car lol, but is there an intake you might recommend? Thanks for the ideas though I'm gonna do lots of googling when I get home haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bship Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 The problem with the k&n is that it will crack your maf housing. It's only a $4 part but it pisses me off that they designed it the way they did. I know steeda makes one that replaces the part, not sure on the others. That sputtering shit is the pos tranny they put in the car, I fucking hate it and myself for not waiting till the st came out, I just needed a car. The best ways to improve it is to upgrade the engine mount and give it a tune.

alaskanzx5 Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Yeah check with central Florida motor sports, fswerks, steeda, and massive for upgrade options. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

Are some parts compatible between the two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
