Not really done much to it to be honest...

DS software
K+N Gen 2 induction kit...of which i now only use the filter PMSL!
Blueflame exhaust with de-cat
Radtec cooler
Gaz Goldline coilovers
Carbon front splitter (thats about 2-3 inches off the ground LOL)
no idea on power output but should see around 250hp genuine

and cheers for the comments

done everything i listed above LOL

now come on Dan, you know it wouldnt be my car unless it sits how it does LOL...Scirocco was lowered 120mm (lowest setting on the coilovers) PLUS the weight of 4 12's, 4 batteries, 3 amps, BIG box etc etc and that was only on 15" rims LOL...Escort was sitting pretty on 17's with a 45mm plus the weight of my box LOL...now its only right that the focus follows suit lol

ive got another project car planned but it will be purely used as a basser...remember your mates Nova with 4 15's? well im trying to quadrouple that ported LOL

Just the "normal" updates: chargecooler upgrade, exhaust, some carbon, splitter, respray, ...
Can't really be bothered with all those goodies now as I still use it everyday. Only thing we changed so far is a GGR sportscat and a FMS manifold.
I would love to have it resprayed in white
But I think I will be too scared to actually go ahead and do it in the end

car looks what bulb's have you got on it now, the shade from the new ones so much better you going to keep the rear wiper off as with my focus when it rains the rear screen get's all the spary from the road on to it big time within seconds your rear screen is going to be covered in dirty water & is a royal pain in the arse to see out of. unless you don't drive in the wet

never had a t34 mate? was considering it when i was looking for 300hp LOL!

not sure what output im looking for the be honest...not too sure if i will be reusing that turbo or if i should swap for a smaller turbo...but i like my top end power we'll see what happens...all i know is ill have to relocate the turbo if i stick with the current choice

nice! ive seen an all white one with white rims...looked AWESOME! once the bodyshop part of my business opens, ill be looking to get everything sorted and strip it down to a bare shell and build back up

just remember to do the complete shell and not just the outside lol...the amount of cars that i have seen that are two different colours between the door shuts and engine bay compared to the outside LOL

with those mods it should definately move very well! i was spinning up in third the other day LOL

cant remember the name of the manufacturer for the bulbs but i love them...had the same on all my cars...SOOOO much better than standard! got them from maccess...i cant remember the exact wattage but either 80 or 100w LOL...when i put them in you could smell a bit of plastic but went away within a minute lol

i remember my cousin put them into his cossie and it melted the fuse holder LOL

im considering a HID conversion though but am still undecided

in regards to the rear wiper...yeah im keeping it off...coming from a VW background ill go for looks over practicality LOL i normally wash the car quite often so not too much of an issue really

duck tape is holding my split charge cable out the way of the intercooler pipe work and is just there as a temp thing until i put my new battery in the front and re wire everything

the manifold i will buy...just depends when i wanna put my turbonetics turbo on the car if its a while off, then i might go down the PD manifold route for now, if not ill get a custom jobbie done
