Um... why don't you check into SVT's new performance partners initiative. Jackson Racing comes to mind. Let's see, Cobra: supercharged, Lightning: supercharged, SVT Focus concept: supercharged. See a pattern here?

I see a pattern that SVE favors superchargers, who know maybe they are afraid of turbos I don't know.

And if the turbo motor is ready, then why is the RS not officially available yet?<hr></blockquote>
I don't know what's holding he RS up, I know I'm not going to be able to buy it anyways so I'm not following it too close. Either way Ford of Europe has been working on the RS for like 2 years now.
Ford Racing went with a turbo for the FR200 Concept.
It sickens me to think of SVE flushing money down the toilet while the rest of Ford is screaming about cost cutting and cheapening cars left and right.
<sarcasm>besides I can't believe that SVE would make a decision based on political reasons that would be more expensive and/or negatively affect performance</sarcasm>
oh wait that already happened with the Focus SVT and the Getrag!!!
