PowerWorks S/C for my '02 Focus?

[Voodoo Snake]

I have a question for SVT Focus members.

I have a 2002 SVT Focus 3 door and am thinking of getting a Powerworks S/C for it. My question is....i have 85K miles on it and was wondering if getting the S/C kit is worth it on the car with that many miles?

Thanks

Well are you prepared to fix things if they were to break? Not knowing the exact status of your motor/drivetrain you must be prepared for anything.

nope...if it breaks, i drive it off a cliff :banana:

im thinking a compression test is in order first

From what I hear, if you plan on installing any forced induction on a not-new engine, a rebuild is in order. The additional compression will take advantage of any leaks or worn parts in the motor. You also might want to take this time to replace the pulleys. While you're at it, during the rebuild you might as well port and polish that thing!

Let me know if you need any work done, I can get you a quote for a shortblock or anything you like.

i hear that 85K is nothing on the svt focus motor so long as the car has been taken care of.
