CAN WE FIX OUR 187BHP MK2 FORD FOCUS ST
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Why does the UK's worst Ford Focus ST only produce 187BHP?
In this episode we start pulling the ST apart to figure out why our ST is so slow when we bought it advertised as having a stage 2 remap on it.
We find out what the issue is as well as finding a few others but can we fix it?.

Lots of content to come 😎
Really enjoying the channel 👍🍊
Yea you guys pulled out the turbo the hard way. Easier way is to disconnect the lower gearbox-subframe mount and have one of you swing the engine block away from the firewall, then pass the turbo and manifold down past the subframe. HTH for the reinstall :)
Can't wait for you guys to at least get it to its factory performance
Great content guys, worth changing the boost control solenoid on turbo are a common fault aswell 👍🏼

Thanks mate.. yeah we’re going to get it changed as a few people have mentioned this 😁🙌🏻
Had the same issue with mine and my friends ST year's ago. It was the boost solenoid had failed on both cars. Might be worth replacing that while it's stripped.
Gonna be following this project - looking to get a facelift model soon. Good stuff fellas

Thanks jack 🙌🏻
Just use a reverse twist lug nut remover removes any nut and goes over any locking nut no welding
I did this in my drive take the bottom boost pipe off tilt the turbo and comes right out the bottom without removing the actuator
Hammer a 3/8 drive 12mm socket into centre of locking wheel nut and Bobs your uncle, done a few of them 😮
Can’t wait to see it get a lift kit , mud tyres and a winch 🙏😂

Hopefully it will feel like a completely different car once it’s back together 👀 should nearly double the bhp 😂
Beats walking? Not sure.
I bought an even worse focus than yours ! Not as much rust but it was 2,600 with 178k miles the seller lied saying that it had a full rebuild so i was happy and bought it and it blew up after 70 miles of normal driving never even took it to redline :(
Dirty little rat 🐀 😂 Keep plugging away, guys 😂👍
😂😂😂At least you make me smile when I see a new video on this pile of shite 😂, i honestly wouldn't like to think what has been done to this car by the careful other owners 😢😂😂😂😂
