Pretty impressive for the lack of work done to the car. Some of these "haters" fail to realize the Escort is a 16-17second car in stock trim. For a couple grand this guy dropped 2-3 seconds off his e.t., and he hasn't really even dug into the motor.

No one really messes with the SPI motor in the Focus because the 2.0l DOHC Zetec had much more aftermarket support. I think the SPI is actually being dropped from the Focus line all together. The old 2.0l DOHC Zetec motor is supposed to be the base motor with the new 2.3l Duratec being the upgrade motor in the "higher end" models.
