for a 2.0-liter Duratec.

The Supersport R makes 180hp and 143lb-ft of torque, which is a 25% improvement over the 135hp that the 1.6-liter engine provided, and is even 5hp more than the R300 version has. Power is routed through a five-speed transmission to the rear wheels with a limited-slip differential. It takes 4.8 seconds to to get to 60mph and had a top speed of 130mph.

The car rides on Avon CR500 tires with Supersport dampers and race springs. It weighs 535kg.

The interior is basically the same as the Supersport with gearshift light on the steering wheel, composite race seats, four-point seat harnesses and windscreen.
