MK2 FOCUS ST GETS A PLENUM | AIRTEC INLET PLENUM

[@joshgoesflying2828]

On the plenum to inlet manifold, it's good practice for anyone doing this to do the end bolts up last as sometimes if you tighten the end ones the tabs can snap off the manifold due to not having much material. Best practice to do all the middle ones first followed be either end last just to be safe this helps it from putting too much tension on the end ones. Hope this helps anyone 🙂

[@Richieesgarage]

its a Plenum not a plenum spacer man :(

[@styusuf5671]

03ANO agreed.

[@shaunwelch9176]

Yes boys how are u both doing .

[@neil_st6073]

Finger blaster will be proud of you. That MAF code is quite generic I've found as it comes up for a few reasons like boosts leaks too. Could just need your MAF and MAP cleaning with electrical contact cleaner. MAP sensor is easy to access on the cold boost pipe with Headlight off.

[@haraldschwarzinger8705]

Anembo plenum with polished trumpets and spacer plate is the BEST all over !!!!

[@southwestfocusmembersswfm301]

Your doing so well and over the past few weeks your st sounds so much better Keep up the good work

[@graemechant10]

air mass code is caused by turbulant air hitting the sensor caused by the 90 degree bend at the air filter !air mass sensor needs linear air flow !

[@scooooott]

Coming together so well. Keep it up lad! Like button slapped 👋

[@brianjennings789]

Great video George & Luke 😊

[@AMGINE1000]

What a difference thats made to the engine bay Tidy :)

[@AlanXR6]

Nice job George, some of those bolts are awkward to get too. Some very tasty mods you have planned for the future as well.

[@donkeydick4922]

Awesome video great content. You can see the disappointment on your mans face at the end. It was like he was hoping you were going to propose to him?

[@gavinksmith]

You will need some mapping done soon, especially after the exhaust if getting a sport cat. I kept getting that code too, it never came back after putting a dreamscience map on the car with the dreamscience imap

[@DB-dx8xu]

It has been live dyno remapped awhile back mate, from past vids

[@boabm6522]

@@DB-dx8xu have you still got your red beast mate, been looking out for you on the roads.

[@ryanpinnell4246]

The car is Looking well nice now 👍🏻

[@bray7607]

Definitely like that new plenum, it looks so much better and it's shiny =D

[@Stringfellow-xo6do]

It would of been worth getting the polished lower inlet manifold while replacing the plenum. Good old auto specialists do a exchange deal like the carbon dash parts you installed. I'm supposed to be getting a new car (RS3 or AMG) but now I want to keep modding my ST.

[@philipnewton7524]

Very smart Looks good and improved performance Cool Phil in stoke

[@mikej857]

Inlet manifold or plenum no spacer involved at all

[@danwright2466]

I need a plenum too just so expensive, and shipping 😬 looks super clean man keep it up!

[@bobbyparsons7742]

I have the red plenum on mine. May have to repaint it though as the paint has started to flake on the bottom left edge. Don’t know why as the rest of it is still mint. And funnily enough i cut myself on the exact same bracket installing mine 😂

[@macca586]

Plenum looks so good! Engine bay is looking sexxxaay

[@mrwick7961]

that codes is the maf sensor (mass airflow sensor) i wud guess

[@SOCIALLYDRIVEN]

We out here doing bits!

[@stephengreatbatch1269]

Made a lot of different to the bay will be getting one for mine looks sweet 👍

[@peterza15]

Hozit boet. You have a boost leak/vacuum line hole somewhere. I had the same code and car went into limp every now and then then.... Have you tried putting off the traction control as soon as you start the car? Does the code then stay away? If yes, you have a hole somewhere. Mine was in the vacuum line on the bottom of the plenum. Had a hole the size of my finger in it. Have a look at all your vacuum lines and do a proper boost leak test. Let me know if you want more info.

[@kellysworld2850]

Definitely think our innuendos are on the same wave length 😂 ‘small what?’ 😂 at the end of this lockdown you could probably do a whole video on ‘The lockdown transformation - Engine bay’ 😍😍😍 Looking good under the hood haha

[@garymugford3273]

I got that code too dunno what it is, looking good check out the billet front engine cover on eBay too,

[@Roadwarrior92]

What about rs vents?

[@alfde-kane6086]

Glad you got that plenum on.what do you think after first drive....i found out mine was split and glued back together 🤔funny that I'm doing my turbosmart actuator this weekend

[@chrisbaxter5041]

That looks so much better

[@leebrown8112]

Looking good mate keep it up

[@kevinjuniorfortuin4891]

Can you give us a link to the parts that you have installed some of the things I Wana buy

[@Mickh0001]

What do the screws on the engine bay dress up kit screw into please?

[@shaunwelch9176]

I have a spare maf sensor if urs is bad?

[@CARSINSHORT1984]

Although it looks great it’s pretty unnecessary for the power you are running and the mid range torque gains really are minimal. But it looks class though

[@davidparkes1391]

Liam mcgrath probably will make sense once block mod and power upgrade is done I reckon.

[@scallylad5037]

Love the mods on the car also

[@steveb19111978]

Looks sick!

[@karlruditis5615]

Looks so tidy 👌👌

[@chrisbaxter5041]

MAF sensor may be where you disturbed it reset it and see

[@user-ii6ju6lm7w]

did you struggle to get the 8mmbolt in nearest the throttle body? i cant get mine in due to the throttle body allowing only half a hole for the bolt. do i fit the plenum first then refit the throttle body after?

[@steveromeocars]

Nice mate. Would be cool to see how much horsepower you gained only with the inlet.

[@jamesevans6335]

Not worth putting on if your car is under 400bhp

[@scallylad5037]

Thought you would have liked the other compliment.

[@leebevan1797]

Can u send a link for the bolts you used for the plenum to the throttle body plz

[@adamrandell7946]

Gotta use some Vaseline on those rings man...

[@AutoBay]

I want this plenum so bad 🤤

[@ChaosDivides]

On a cold start how does the car behave? High idle that settles after X amount of seconds, or does it drop straight under 1k. If you have had P0101 for a while It could be your MAF has hit the bullet. When mine died the cold start idle was a give away plus PO101.

[@GCMYT]

Interesting. You say that

[@GCMYT]

I’ve noticed it for a while yes and the car turns on and drops almost instantly

[@GCMYT]

I’ve never replaced it before so could be possible.

[@GCMYT]

And yes I’ve had the code for ages

[@ChaosDivides]

You can buy the MAF sensor by itself without spending 100s on the housing and MAF.

[@oiudsaf]

Hate tiktok love the car

[@FocusRS500]

Did you notice any power gain?

[@liambell7009]

I was going to order the rs slam panel but couldn’t see any holder for the bonnet strut - where do you put the bonnet strut with the new rs slam panel?

[@styusuf5671]

Liam Bell there is actually another holder in the metal slam panel just behind where the original holder in the plastic slam panel was/is.

[@liambell7009]

ST Yusuf ah so it is still secured if i replace the slam panel?

[@oceangarrett9037]

Does it give u anymore power and wot b. H.power gain from it

[@evilgreenranger1267]

I wanna know what exhaust is coming!?! 👀👀👀

[@GCMYT]

Vid goes up this afternoon.

[@alanconnolly2777]

Who are you thinking of to do the block mod ?

[@GCMYT]

Unsure. Possibly matt Lewis motorsport

[@ncfpv1957]

Block mod is dodgy, I have had the steal liner system from dream science fitted, expensive but far more safe than little bits of metal wedged between the liners. Which is a cheap fix for a possible major issue's in the future. Car looks sweet.

[@davecozzie1]

Can some1 please explain to me why the maf needs to be at 2 o clock lol

[@markholyoak9790]

Did you forget to re plugin mar air sensor back in

[@alfde-kane6086]

Could you send me a link to the plenum bolts please

[@alfde-kane6086]

Thank you

[@SacrredIV]

Luke loves a pair of leggings doesnt he lol

[@isoconfused8744]

Do you not fancy the RS turbo, injectors / running gear?

[@GCMYT]

Well see what happens down the line pal

[@markholyoak9790]

I'm also doing a bonnet latch conversion on my car so that you can pull the bonnet from inside the car simply because there is always a problem with these not working, the white plastic bit comes out the lock so when you put the key in it doesn't work, I have replaced my lock 3 times and it is really hard to get the bonnet open if the lock doesn't work Here is a youtube video on how to do it kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3_aeHWrach8edk

[@cjmackay9804]

Good video but the music throughout was awful 👍🏻

[@kieronparry4158]

Why does your mate wear little girls trousers?

[@sleepersaab477]

Social distancing? No ?

[@GCMYT]

What with my housemate ?
