FORD FOCUS RS TURBO CONVERSION COMPLETE ST225 380BHP!

Hello guys and gals welcome back to another video the ST RS Conversion is finally complete the rs turbo conversion has been a success and the cars running Amazingly! few things I wanna say sorry for the mic very windy right now and my mic muff got damaged so doesn't work properly no more! Also sorry for the lack of POV recording it's very hard when tryna get all this stuff done on a time schedule and some of the stuff needed a few sets of hands and so on. Now onto the Figures Yes the car ran 380BHP which for a driveway job and a pre-mapped ECU from another car is Fantastic and is more than enough power for now! The car fueling and air to fuel ratios are perfect and the map itself is a very strong and stable map so I'm not upset I didn't get the 420BHP I was hoping for because If I can now work on all the handling and suspensions upgrade and really knuckle down on tryna put the power down! that 380 should feel like 420. There's no point chasing numbers to hit the one figure you want and you car running like crap and being able to put the power down I could've hit 420 if I added this and that but it would've shot my torque up and my engine wouldn't survive and I'd have to spend more money on upgrading the internals! (I will be doing further down the line) and so on so, for now, 380BHP and 400FT LBS of Torque I'm very happy with.

That is a strange oil cooler. They should have cooling fins. Or are the fins covered by the plastic cover ? In Australia no plastic cover. Is it the salt and temps up there that the cover is for? Cheers :D

Good vid m8,I've done this conversion to my st....running revo 4+ 415bhp 440lbft....when u blanked off the record what did u do with the hose that attaches to it? Blank it off? Also regards the actuator the standard one is the best one to use...

[@Richieesgarage]

I put a bolt/screw inside the recirc pipe and cable tied it shut for now till I sort something and I think an aftermarket one will be better aslong as it’s adjusted correctly and remapped in as boost and torque will be higher

[@glynnmason8205]

great video so this is with an focus rs turbo and all the other thing's in your list and no block mod

@@Richieesgarage what is the block mod does it require engine out cylinder head off

[@cardude900]

I dont understand why guys buy a ST 225 for 10-14 grand and put in it mods for 6-7 grand and have then the power of an RS, when you can buy an Focus RS for 20 grand witch makes for 4 grand 500HP with no problems. i dont know how it is in the UK, but here in Switzerland it does work.

[@Richieesgarage]

m0t4rd n4ti0n I mean it cost me less than 2.5k and the car cost me 4.4k so and insurance is 1.6k a year fully modified An RS would cost me 20k 6k insurance and still be 300bhp stock then would cost me 4-5k getting it to 400bhp due to the RS PRICE TAG on every modified item, but I see where you’re coming from but in the uk it’s a bit different everyone likes being different and an RS is a lot of money

[@mikepb123]

Hi mate, followed your video for a while and you have helped me out with some install tips. With this install, did you remap it again for the new injectors and turbo. Also would u think it would be ok without the RS oil cooler or is it 100% needed. Mine is getting this work in a couple of weeks.

[@Richieesgarage]

dont need rs oil cooler it just helps, and yeah you need it remapped and u need rs ecu software and rs abs patch or the abs module itself! otherwise car will run really rough multiple lights as you have the rs map and maf senors and so on

@@Richieesgarage its remapped now at stage 2 the company I use will install everything and custom map it like that have with my current map, u dont have ur engine forged do u? Do u think its needed if I want to stay at 400/400 . I am block modded already
