One thing to keep in mind, descriptions of the cars are either very vague or not on par per the requests of the attendees.
Focus was a built car and BIG turbo, simply a 500+whp car.

Another perspective, C7 Z06 is a 1000+whp car on the highest setting.

Yeah even on stock ecu mapping with no mods headers benefit the engine noticeably. I measured a 1s improvement with mid tube headers, empty precats and stock secondary cats on a 100-200kph pull. Stock was 9.3s and with the headers I'm now at 8.3s.
