Not true. Maybe not on the base models, but the svt focus comes with variable intake cam timing and a dual stage intake. Not exactly the same as vtec, but along the same lines.Originally posted by "FreakTimmah"
and in case any of you were wondering ZTEC isnt the same as VTEC. as of yet ford doesnt have any sort of varitable valve timing and electronic lift control on their engines. ztec is just a name......nothing more

yes, cosworth is a lot lke saleen. the cosworth focus is a concept from 99, but recently i think i read an article that said there producing it now. its preaty cool, turbocharged 2.0 liter ztec engine, puts out about 200hp, lowerd suspention, all the goodies 8) its a very sweet car, but its built fo the european market since cosworth is an english company. i dont know if well ever get it here, id be sweet as hell if we did 8)Originally posted by "Team 4R"
nevermind.... googled it up, and now i see that cosworth is a tuner company (?) and not a trim level.............
I can't imagine it being too long before steeda, saleen, or sean hyland offer a super/turbocharged version of their focus.Originally posted by "FreakTimmah"

BTW - Did you post this on Mustangworld, about how your car got wrecked and you picked up the focus? I think i remember hearing something on MW about that.
