DIY Network: Suspension
In this episode of Tricked Out, host Andrew Totolos installs a remote suspension dampening controller to upgrade the coil-over suspension on a Ford Focus SVT. This system, also known as EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller), makes it possible to control the feel of the car's ride by pushing buttons from the driver's seat. Small servo motors installed at each shock absorber respond to commands from the dash-mounted control module-allowing the driver to make precise suspension adjustments on the fly. Since the damping force can be controlled with ease to meet different situations, the driver can enjoy variations in the suspension setting from hard performance-settings to soft comfort and anywhere in between. In all matters of performance the Ford Focus SVT focus outperforms its popular ZX3 sibling. But even though the SVT suspension is lower and firmer than the ZX3 model, there's room for improvement. This 2003 SVT already sports a hot euro package in bright yellow and a spiced-up exterior with custom airbrushed vinyl graphics.
