Just wanted to know if there are any rwd or awd focus mk1's or puma's out there with the2.4/2.3 volvo t5 engine on board. Ive had volvo t5's and a mk2 focus rs and the engine is awsome but both cars are fwd and to heavy so i have had an idea that is being put in to place, Volvo t5/t5 R engine, GT35 turbo, custom exhaust manifold with external wastegate, custom inlet plenum with 10 injectors(hopefully) and water inj, big intercooler, rad in the boot, Rwd gearbox, custom prop to mate up to dont know what diff (pref a good strong lsd type that are easy to get hold of) poss all volvo. the idea of the build is to have a full on track/hill climb/time attack car that will give a good strong 500bhp on a standard block. So is there anything like this out there as i have done the usual internet searching and i cannot find anything. I have heard of a 4x4 mk2 focus rs but dont know if its a YB or 5cyl volvo
