My Focus RS is Getting 500hp at Mountune! | PROJECT PART 7

It's finally time to take my Red Edition Ford Focus RS to Mountune to crack on with injecting some more power! Safe to say the Mountune team know a thing or two about the mk3 RS with their work to date and in the case of this car we're going full on with a target of 500hp!

Taking the Focus RS to the Mountune workshop to get things started, I can't go into too much detail about the work being done at this stage,due to the nature of it literally being in development. However, we can take a look around their own development car to get a feel for the sound and what it's going to be like when all is completed.

The engine will be removed from the car and rebuilt from the ground up for additional strength, including: new pistons, con rods, driveshafts, cooling system, head gasket and much more. Then naturally it will be required to fit parts like the intake, intercooler, inlet manifold, but as has been explored to date with the Focus RS and the 2.3l turbo ecoBoost - that will get you to around 400hp or so and if you want more - that means new... turbo! The first stage of the build should take it from the stock 350hp to high 400s, but wait and see what where the torque goes from the standard 470nm, it will be a big increase.

I shall return in the future for an update on progress and to maybe even check out Mountune's development car to get a feel for where mine is going, if you'd like to see it. The build will take a month or two, but this car is going to be one incredibly exciting monster when it's complete!
