Ford Focus Question

I just bought a 2000 Ford Focus ZX3. I know a little bit about cars, but not much. I put a cold air intake, throttle body, full cat-back exhaust, new plugs and wires on it a few days after I bought it. I like the car, plus I got a good deal on it. I am tryin to get some low end power, street light to streetlight. I moved out of VA, so I dont have to deal with the cops any more. So, if someone could give me some suggestions for low end power, it would be great. Thanks!

351W swap. You'll have all the low end torque and power you'd ever want in that light of a car.

Ditto, I use to have one so if you have any questions, I might be able to help some. Also you might want to look into a Quaife LSD, god I loved mine when I got it.

For some reason, I don't think he's going to swap a 351 in that or he'd have bought something different to start off with.
