Now does this make your Focus an "Official Saleen" or is it still a Focus with a Saleen Body kit... Cause some A-hole tried to BS me about how this Mustang gt was a Factory done Saleen, and i took one look at it (with its rust on the body kit and sheetmetal screws holding it together) and said yea... right.... so what im asking is did u have Steve Saleen's factory team do it?

for the record, a "75 shot" of nitrous actually adds about 40, maybe 50HP at the wheels.. adds decent torque too, though.. as long as you're spraying anyway.
I have no idea where the "75" came from in those specs companies like to use, but generally they go by "shots" being 10BHP per pound per minute of N2o. a 75 shot would, or should be jetted for 7.5lbs/min

far from everything.. I just know about nitrous. I ran a two-stage setup on my car for a while. I did a lot of research on it before setting it up to make sure I was getting the most from it, and not hurting the engine at the same time.

It is technically just a ZX3 with a Saleen bodykit on it. I didn't have Saleen put it on because I am fully capable of putting on a bodykit lol.
Yes, the hood is carbon fiber, with the outer sides painted to match the car. I'm not doing carbon fiber mirrors because they are all FAKE carbon fiber and look like shit. The rear spoiler on the car is also carbon fiber, as are the B-Pillars.
