i would recomend getting a Hitec Exhaust. Youll gain more power by doing your intake, IE pod or deres and what not. its quite common knowledge that the intake on the focus is quite restrictive.

If your getting cams have you thought about what to tune it?

my suggestion would be to get yourself a custom cat back, purchase a miltek header from www.european-parts.net along with custom flex and sports cat.

Re-Do your intake, purchase a K&N typhoon kit or a BMC CDA for your induction.

what cams where you looking at as well.. lots of UK boys use Piper cams.

To tune the car, contact Dreamscience or SCT, Superchips Bluefin do do a package but i dont think they offer live tuning like Dreamscience and SCT can do.

x3 on Hi Tech. I have the same exhaust that melbzetec has on my old Focus. Loved it to bits. Not too loud either.
