Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches Southwest stuff

Thank you all for the welcome. I am trying to dig up some pics of my contour.
Question for you guys, how much faster are the SVT contours than the standard 2.5L? Just curious. Never been in one.

I was racing a Acura Integra GT-S the other day (owned by my father) by the time we were at about 85mph he was not quite a car length ahead of me. The integra has 170hp as well as the SE contour that I own. I'm guessing that he has a slight weight advantage though.

I hope that a cold air and larger exaust system will help.

Well thanks again for the welcome!

Price wise Paragon seems to be OK. But, I havn't really priced anything out there. They don't have Contour parts, and I try and get everything as cheap as humanly possible, which means group buys and such for me. Their dyno prices are real good though. $50 for a pull, add $25 for air/fuel monitoring. They charge a flat $125 an hour if you are planning on doing multiple runs w/different set-ups. Donny the dyno guy does know his stuff very well, and they (esp. Donny) are pretty well regarded in the local Focus community.
