Minnesota Focus Owners Club

I just installed a Focus Sport front stress bar and just wanted you all to know how much of a difference it makes, especially for only $101 to my door. The whole front end is so much tighter and more in line performancewise with my rear. I would highly recommend this mod. And as a testament of how easy it was to install, I DID IT. Oh and i also threw on blacked out tails that are sweet as hell. I will try to post pics when i can take them.

Rob, what you mean is i will post pics for you after you take them. we all know you have no idea how to post pics hahaha.

and yeah, if Rob installed something its really, really......really easy.

So what you're saying is that the instruction labels on gas pumps are there for Rob?

and think the focus is 60% stiffer than a rally preped escorte!!!! now imagine a x-brace and how stiff that would be.

To SVT owners, remember it won't fit if your running a stock Cat...

I won't have to worry about that

Aftermarket cat?

I picked up a FocusTuning bar acouple montsh back anyway...atleast it fits with the SVT setup..but hangs alittle low...

I'm going to be getting the HFC or ORP from CFM. Will it fit with the HFC from CFM that you know of??

I've heard it might...its still kinda close tho...I don't think anyone has trial fitted one yet...

I don't have any clearence issue with my FocusTuning bar tho on my SVT setup...

how would a cat interfere with a strut brace?

It's not a strut bar, its a stress bar.

They are installed under your car....

SVT header with a ORP pipe clears...I'd bet in acouple days, the powercoat on the bar near the pipe is gonna be melted tho...
