HOW MUCH HORSEPOWER IS OUR CHEAP FOCUS RS RUNNING?

CHECK OUT OUR UNCENSORED PODCAST / evilgt
Subscribe: cutt.ly/Vse4oM2
We take our cheap Focus RS to The Vehicle Tuner for a rolling road dyno test to find out how much horsepower it is kicking out from it's 2.3L Ecoboost engine. Although it has a lot of Mountune modifications, on previous tests it could only manage 0-60 in just under 5 seconds, so does this mean it is running factory standard 345hp or Mountune 375hp?

Bang on standard power 👍🏼, and after 66,000 miles? Big up the RS 🙌🏼

[@andiquill8069]

Lee taking a dump at the garage 😆🤣😂 I don't think my side's can take much more 😂🤣😆

[@ChRiS-kc6by]

Brilliant content. From a fellow mk3 RS owner get it stage 2’d. Transforms the car 👍

[@johndodd4862]

Same as me. I don't think they should touch it, I don't want everyone having what I (and you!) have got - ha,ha

[@jameshedges3857]

stage 2 is awsome on the RS. Makes you realise how flat the RS feels in stock form. I'm running MSD420 and its the absolute nuts!

[@georgeyanakov8177]

Put it in “ Dyno mode “ to get a precise reading. The car has it, check how to activate it and measure again.

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

Loving this channel recently, good banter and chat about cars. Not bad after 60k still at standard power! Maybe should get our standard 7k mile RS on one and see the power... also loving the Instagram posts at the moment too. Cheers, Oliver.

[@EVILGT]

Thanks For your suppprt Oliver 🙏🏻

[@amsingh3041]

I love the way he was laughing when he saw 288hp and thought it was under powered. 🤣🤣🤣 think the clock started ticking when they were told it was whp 🤣🤣

[@chrismaund2134]

The rolling Road was a great price 👍 chat at the end " brilliant "

[@mmmadog]

My Audi has a sticker under the hood that says make sure your on a 4 wheel dyno or rolling road as you guys call it.

[@dmvfocusrs7591]

I knew you guys would enjoy the car once you drove it more. It almost seems to adapt to whomever is driving it.

[@daytonamart2789]

Just watched Shmee, bored me to tears. You blokes, laughed out loud three times! Loving the content.

[@EVILGT]

Thanks for the comment mate. That means a lot 👍🏼

[@ShalomBrother]

On the money this channel, good crack and nice motors. What more could you want?

[@dawidbarreiro]

Stock RS measures 335hp at the crank. That car is tuned

[@TylerStout]

From what I've seen around 285 whp +/-5 whp is about normal for the stock car. But there's a lot left on the table. Got one myself in black :)

[@jamiemcknight3158]

Loving the videos guy! You pair together make some cracking content. Just subscribed and I’ve waited almost ever video now. Keep them coming

[@darrenfletcher5414]

15 mins of fun lads, keep them coming!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@EVILGT]

Thanks Darren 👍🏼

[@chrisnic8894]

Strongly suspect that’s running a stage 1 map, a standard car giving more than stock power would be very surprising given others results.

[@johndodd4862]

I agree. It appears to have the Mountune 375 hardware and that is (very slightly) different from what is available from their shop. A good service with a new set of plugs and air filter clean and re-oil might easily pull another 10bhp. I would imagine the inlet valves are pretty coked as well (direct injection issue)

[@ryancox3834]

This video is fucking ace lol. Nice video lads. A pals 400bhp RS couldnt get out of the 14s at santa pod and my 140 consistently ran mid 12s. They are a bag of wank

Try a Dreamscience iMap tune. Simple flash tune makes a big difference and not expensive.

[@bobbycav16]

you can back the suspension off using the button on the end of the indicator stalk

[@EVILGT]

We keep the suspension in normal mode and turn it straight off if it goes to sport. This whole video was in normal and we were still bouncing around 😂

[@0161pumaste]

Great video guys! you could get it remapped? but they only get around 380bhp without changing other things like the intercooler, turbo, and injectors. i reccon 350bhp is enough, just make sure you run it on super unleaded as it will perform at its best. i always use shell v-power nitro+

[@ashleypartington9462]

Oh used go gokarting there lads

Great banter, keep up the good work lads 👊🏻👊🏻

Thanks Simon 👍🏼

[@gbass7328]

Formally Greg F, Yup makes sense for 289whp with the drivetrain loss of 15%. Time for a Cobb AP and a good Protuner not off the shelf map. Then that video and maybe another rolling road dyno session. Really Cheap with that shop!!! YES the RS has a FWD dyno mode. Just look procedure up and have them do that next time to make sure. As soon as you drive off it goes back to AWD. Cheers!

[@DjNikGnashers]

So, this 'legend' was sat on his arse, watching youtube, but couldn't fit you in ...... PMSL ...... Not sure about the big puff of black smoke mate ! Mine didn't do that on the dyno (M140i). 345bhp seems bang on, which would suggest the dyno is reasonably accurate, as a lot over-read as you probably know (bigger numbers sell more remaps), so plenty of scope for 400+ left in just a map : happy days ! Another good video though, thumbs up.

[@EVILGT]

Cheers Nik

Wouldn't surprise me if this actually did have the mountune map on it.. I've not seen a standard rs hit its 350 figures yet, they are normally around 320 from the flywheel.

If you have some mountunes parts like intercooler ect. Then you should get the COBB map to help with the ECU to get re-tuned

It is highly offensive term which should not be used. They appear nice guys having banter which i enjoy listening to but that comment was ill judged and if you find it funny that is very sad , i thought we had moved on over last 30 years.

[@chrisd2415]

@@nigelbaldwin752 it’s only offensive if you get offended! Get a grip of yourself, stop trying to be woke.

[@Scott555ish]

Video the boost gauge and see how it compares to this standard car. The boost should rise above 5200rpm. If its mountune it may be more linear and higher peak boost. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3-wp6OZisSSaas

[@jtbland]

Tuners should be able to manually disable the RDU for dyno runs.

This channel will do great whilst you own the RS,but the second you sell it they will hate you for it and turn on you guys,it has happened on many other channels,ask the likes of Markcup70!

Must be the fpm 375. 1. It revs at 4500 for launch control. 2. Its 508 tourqe. 3. Its got the fpm375 induction kit. Also my 375 hit the 510 tourqe but was down like yours on bhp. Custom map sorted that out now she flies. Great show lads. Love watchin what you get upto! 👍

[@EVILGT]

Thanks for the info Gavin. We’ll look into this further definitely 👍🏼

[@dtprodrive]

Tbh you’ve got a decent one there boys. These mk3s are notorious for running below the 345 (claimed) so you should be pretty pleased with that. P.s I was creasing when you thought the dyno was reading at the crank hp 🤣

[@eddiec438]

Is this a proper RR ... shouldnt the bonnet be open and a fan blowing cool air into the engine ? It was on the RR I went to.

Haha, love these video's, I especially liked the PCP video, although I suspected that "Bellend "was reading from a script when it came to the figures!

[@jross9816]

You shouldnt really worry about the figures AT the engine.. that never really matters. when you drive you dont feel 340hp. you feel 280 something as thats what is getting delivered to the wheels. good content though, would love to see this thing tuned up proper with some fuel/boost mods. after old mate gets the new clutch in. big ups from AUS

[@lufc76]

[@tonyw3250]

You should of done a before and after on the same dyno

[@EVILGT]

Thought we did?

[@DazzaST225]

Its 4th gear for a dyno pull. Clearly shows 155mph which is 5th. Also car needs to be put in dyno mode. I would take the results with a light pinch of salt

[@redline_78]

Good video but i would say that either its down on power or that dyno is reading wrong. 289hp plus 15% transmission equals 332hp

[@fasthracing]

Umm that the whole point of a dyno/rolling road to check the power at the wheels!! Otherwise you would not need a dyno/rolling road.
