Hmm a little dissapointed with this car.
He hasnt done much to it at all. The cold air intake is very restrictive on the ST / XR5... I would be changing this before doing the exhaust. More gains to be made. Our Frosty here has done more to his 'can of fanta' |

I hate the guys voice.
I wouldn't exactly call 0-100 in 6second slow. Im guessing Low 14's 1/4mile.

My fiesta is slow. But the difference is I think that focus was quick.
SO you think 0-100 in 8.5 isn't far behind low 6?

The motor mag had the XR5 times totally wrong the first time they put it in.
Basically... motor is talking crudola. I rem the quarter mile time was high 15's or something when they tested the car. |
