Link to an aftermarket supercharged Gen 6 Civic Si. Sorry about the promotional chit-chat; just advance the video to the in-car parts. This would be the ticket to having a chance to stay with Hotshoe Wannabe's contemplated Focus ST. Pocket rocket, indeed. And how to make 1st gear even shorter: the drivers spend maybe two seconds in it...

OK, you win. I have been snooping around a factory fresh motorcar, but have still been fascinated by potential power and handling updates for my 10 yr old Focus - which is much more pleasing to my eye than the current Kia/Hyundai $30k styling exercise that is the new Focus ST. Now, if I were to contact these fine folks about the possibilities for an "easy-to-install" supercharger kit (fat chance) for my vee-hical - and also get that braaap exhaust note - we could have some serious play time on the Dragon.
Bring money: $4700-5300 for the Kraftwerks Si kit, and they recommend an upgraded clutch too.
Don't know if I could live with the tuner exhaust on a daily/trip driver car. But the noise is glorious, especially at high revs, and would be a hoot in a weekend toy.
