I had seen tales of this project, but was surprised to find it finished!

I bet he's pissed he didn't wait for the 2.3! ;)

That same car was also recently featured in MM&FF magazine. I like it, but agree with comment above regarding the 2.3 ecoboost. I suppose it's a biotch being a pioneer.... :)

Does the firewall look like it's been clearanced to move the engine back?

How many horse is the eco boost 2.0? Even if it's the same s an SVO the weight difference would make it faster. Wonder what he did for front springs.

From a Focus ST the 2.0 makes 252 hp / 270 lb·ft torque.

JTYeah I noticed the notch in the firewall too. Not sure why though. Oil pan clearance maybe??

The high pressure fuel pump is on the back of the cylinder head plus there is a large water jacket bolted on also.
