lol, this is probably going to be true. Not a whole lot of other mod options for this car. We can discuss sway bars or headers if you'd like
Well if we're discussing stuff we'll never buy then let me tell you about the Caterham R600 I'm getting.
(Nate, you know I'm just messing with you, right?

Headers are a good day's install, unfortunately I've done about 7 sets in my life.
The rear sway bar makes the car act all proper, its crazy, as long as you pair it with AWR endlinks.
lol, Yes I do. So what color plastidip is the Caterham going to be?Well if we're discussing stuff we'll never buy then let me tell you about the Caterham R600 I'm getting.

I've read nothing but good things about replacing the rear sway with the racing beat so that's next on my wish list. Since the pre-cats are 10 years old and prone to fail that has me seriously considering the headers. I'm worried about the sound though and they are pricey.
I should have it somewhere. Last year the ST's were out in force. I think we had 7 or 8 total. Not sure if there was a white one or not. You should be fairly easy to spot
Some complain about the headers being a bit raspy, but I don't think its bad at all. The only thing is you need to extend the O2 sensors to behind a cat to avoid CELs, unless you don't have emissions down there and don't give a crap.
No emissions, but I don't like it when the check engine light is on
You can just picture this:

You can just picture this:
You can get extensions, and I have welded bungs (not pretty but work) to get around the CEL.
Also, just image that, with only a few inches between the header and your radiator, and on the back side is the alternator heat shield actually touches the other header. Dropping the subframe is also a must to get the pipes around the subframe itself.

You should totally do that.

My car will have Fiji plates and I'll be walking around in a purple Fiji shirt.
You gonna make it worth my whileYou should totally do that.
In seriousness, have you guys sold many? When I was looking dealers made it sound like they were getting orders left and right but I've seen all of one on the road whereas Focus ST's are all over the place.

I'm going to make it worth your while by putting you out of your misery and ordering your ST for you. Hell, I can probably find one right now.
We've probably sold 6 or so since they've come out and we've got a sold order that should be in anytime now. We probably do about 2 normal Fiestas to an ST, which is pretty strong.
