Put a hitch on it and maybe it can replace my F250 with that torque, lol

This is making me very happy as I'm pretty set on getting the Focus RS when it gets here. Same powertrain but AWD!
Has this been confirmed by for to be coming to he states?
Not by Ford specifically, but there's a lot of solid info coming out that points to the credibility of it. Latest news is that it will be imported because of the AWD which right now Ford doesn't have the capacity to manufacture the AWD in the states. The new AWD drivetrain is being developed for the Focus as well as other Ford products like the Fusion and Edge as a "true" AWD as opposed to the fwd biased system they have now. The RS prototype has been seen in both Europe at the Nurburgring and in the US testing on the streets I believe. On top of that the 2.3 EB has been confirmed for the most part with power ranging from the EB Mustang's levels up to a supposed 350hp. If we're ever going to get an RS car it's going to be now as everything is universal between Europe and the US. Plus Ford said the success of the STs would determine if it ever happened and the STs have been pretty popular sellers so far with majority buyers being well off and in their late 20s to early 30s which is a good demographic for a more expensive, higher performance model. I think they said the average ST buyers salaries were close to $100k/year.
Stock turbo torque monster. It will be holding power longer with a down pipe this will be a nice daily for me. I'm excited to get mine!
It'll need some turbo mods for that.
What he said. It's def shaping up to be a very solid platform to mod but those type of numbers will require more then basic boltons.
The intercooler yes, but these are mechanical fuel pumps. a BAP won't work since the pump is driven by the camshaft, and no one makes injectors. Remember, these run thousands of PSI in the rail
Well, it's the item people wanted to know most about our car. What did it do at the track? Well, check it out for yourself! :rolling:

This was done with full weight, right off the road, on an open test and tune night, and, wait for it..... on 20" wheels and tires!
Not too shabby for a tune only! That's right, tune only!
So for those of you begging to know what our tune can do, we answered your plea :burnout:

Niiiiiice!!
Really impressive, actually more so than the GT. You mention 20" tires, were these the stock tires?
Very impressive!
No, this car had 18's on it from the factory, we put 20's on it for daily use and this is what she ran on a 20" radial. It just makes too much power for that stock tire
While others are only showing you dyno runs, gauges, or "coming soon" propaganda, we are out doing what we do best. Setting records and amazing people with the results we can achieve with the EcoBoost family of engines., Not only did we run an impressive 12.6 1/4 mile time earlier in the week on 20" wheels and tires, making it the fastest tune only EcoBoost Mustang in the country, we decided to see what some light weight wheels and tires would do. With a 17" race wheel and tire combo, along with removing the front seat, we were able to run a 12.1 1/4 mile time. This easily makes it the quickest EcoBoost Mustang on the planet.
We are just getting started with this platform, so keep a look out for more world records from Livernois Motorsports and Engineering!
