mettech Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Ford Focus RS (2014) first details of 350bhp hot hatch By Phil McNamara Spy shots 17 February 2012 07:00 Ford’s third-generation Focus RS is shaping up, with an all-new four-cylinder engine good for 350bhp, and with clever tech to help the front wheels put that hefty power down So what engine will the new Ford Focus RS have to produce 350bhp? Its engine is set to be a 2.3-litre Ecoboost engine, which is under development in North America and tipped for the next Mustang sports car. ‘The 2.3 is coming but it’s not in use yet,’ said a Ford source. ‘300 to 350bhp is the range we should consider.’ The engine will feature direct injection and turbocharging, to boost power while optimising fuel consumption Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdsilver02 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Na, my '02 is already a 270hp silver bullet, perma-grin machine. I will be standing and pre-paying for the new RS, if it ever happens. Probably won't, but what a wonderful focus that would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
