Umm, its not a mustang but......

they share absolutely nothing with the old 2.3 we are working with, except for the size in liters. but yeah, start with the basic intake and exhaust stuff...there is at least one big focus site on the net, try searching for it

It's the 2.3 Duratec, it has nothing in common with the 2.3 Lima.

Want speed? Either turbo it, engine swap (2.5L SVT Contour) they make nice 351W kits too , or drop it out of a plane.

You could, but it would require more than just bolt-ons.

Yup, pretty much. I know some guys that have Foci (yes I call them Foci to), and they have some cheap turbo kits out there. only a couple grand. and in different stages. Nice thing about the foci market is that it is kinda like the mustang 5.0 market. there is lots of it out there and many choices. Most companys that deal with 5.0's will have a line of Foci stuff also.

For the most part Bolt on's wont do to much because everything on that motor is well tuned. I would start with an exausht and intake. you know get rid of some of that luxury stuff to make the ride smooth and quite. then I would move to a cam. fromm what I remember the ford headers were designed pretty good.

I almost bought a zx3 twice. Price of hop up parts held me back (would of had to change bumpers, and everything)..

have fun.

Nitrous. My buddy's brother-in-law put a nitrous kit on his Focus and it pulled pretty good with only a 45hp jet. The kit came with jets up to 100hp, but I never rode in it after that.
