stock usually implys that the car is coming from ford unmodified... this car obviously isnt seeing its not 1967. So saying this car is stock is completly off base. And all they are doing is continueing(sp?) what unique performance was doing with the "elinor" cars only they are offering it in different color schemes and not doing the "gone in 60 seconds" marketing and badging. And saying its overpriced is kinda rediculous too... what would you pay for a foose camaro? about the same as a restomod mustang...

meaning over priced as in most people will never even come close to being afford to get one .. And not saying that these cars are "stock" but saying even in the world of super cars never hears of NOS as a option

cuz nos is more or less the "poor mans" power adder.... not saying that spray cant be very expensive to be done right. and I gotcha on how you imply the stock thing. But on another note. a car that did come from ford with spray was the roush focus. but you had to buy the bottle and hook it up yourself. I think it came with a 50 shot. lol.

Hmmm...an Eleanor knockoff I see. Rather have Eleanor.

BTW i believe there was a Focus that came stock with NOS... Dont know if it was SVT or Roush or Saleen... I will see if i can find it...

Edit: Looks like its a Saleen Focus (75 Wet Shot that is actually showing a gain of 125 in BHP). I personally consider Saleen "stock" since any Ford dealership can order one. Whether you do is I suppose your opinion.

When I first read about the Saleen Focus I thought it was insanity. Small, lightweight car with NOS.

Yes, it was the Saleen N20, I believe it was called. It had everything there for NOS, you just had to hook it up and fill it, lol.

I thought Nitrous was illegal in your car stock or not ..

**cammed goat** · 12-06-2009, 03:06 PM

I would be afraid I would roll that thing. Too small of a wheelbase to be able to go a straight line with the gas armed. But that's my opinion.

I have heard it depends where you are/live. I have heard if you have the line disconnected but you have the tank in the trunk, you are cool. Some officers will make you empty the tank or confiscate the tank or your car if they wanna be a total jerk.

**predator** · 12-06-2009, 03:41 PM

If i can remeber "Adams, Steves, Kyles, Jasons" Law correctly you are ok as long as the tank is disconnected from the line.

If you have it that way and a cop makes you purge it I would take it to a judge and try to get my money refunded for the Nitrous. How do they expect you to transport it to the track?
