Possible SVT Focus TURBO - 11/14/2002 1:26:49 PM    SVTContour   Posts: 4 Joined: 11/18/2002 Status: offline I hope this is true...from www.autoweek.com http://autoweek.com/cat_content.mv?port_code=autoweek&cat_code=carnews&loc_code=index&content_code=09975567 Here’s a little more on that Ford Focus with the giant hood scoop we showed you a while back. Sources tell us the car our spy shooter caught in the desert was “Project Panama,” a turbocharged version of the standard Focus 2.0-liter four. We’re told the target for the hot Focus is the Dodge SRT-4, which will pack a 215-hp turbo 2.4-liter engine when it arrives early next year. No specific word from Ford Special Vehicle Team, but we’re assured they’re doing what it takes to keep competitive in the market. Current: 1998 SVT Contour E1 2001 Honda Superhawk 996 (4 Sale!) Past: 1995 SVT Cobra 1984 Mercury Capri 302 (12.60's @ 109) Post #: 1

Also heard that it's a rocket that embarrasses the SVT focus, but then I don't really know for sure. I'm sure it will be fun but it can't even come close to rear wheel drive fun or V8 exhilaration.

Yes you will beat me in a Stang and an SHO drag racing but I guarantee you cant hang with me through the curves. Yes the RS has a 225 hp turbo in it and its still just rumored that the SVT will be turbo in 2004. Kenne Bell is supposedly producing a twin screw for it due out this summer.
