Installed the new Massive Speed front strut bar on my Focus ST. This piece adds maximum rigidity to the front struts and lots of steering response and grip!

Great vid. That ST was sick the way it was making a cake walk of the cones.

I just added my cross bar to the stock as well. Taking it off loses the triangulation which ties it all together. Just had to use longer grade 8 bolts.

Longer bolts?

@@club.alfagt I have stock style struts, so they have bolts that go through strut bearing 2014 year model. So new bar on top of firewall bar only allowed a couple threads grip, i preferred better grip so i bought 1 inch longer bolts.

Thank you so much for the review! Can you tell me what torque you have to use to put those factory bolts back on?

Thank you for the video. Any reason why you have not adjusted the front camber? Looks like you’re barely running -1.0*. -2.0 to -2.5* does wonders for these FWD cars, and it will allow you to tuck those front tires a lot better under hard cornering. 🍻

Yeah that bar won't fit mine, i have the big mountune RS intake pipe that one almost hits the rubber seal of the rain gutter

I know this is old but why did you stop running the Spyder headlights?

Did you heat wrap the intake with it installed on the car? I’d like to do mine as well but I don’t feel like taking it off just to wrap it

Hows that lightweight battery holding up? Do you daily this car with that battery? Was thinking of going to this battery setup but have read very mixed reviews. Car looks awsome btw.

Battery is great man. Just make sure you don’t leave your accessories running

@@club.alfagt you're on point, you answered my next question after the location lol. I appreciate the feedback, but i think im gonna try a stock size agm battery instead. Problem is this car sits for a month at a time and i figured with that being kind of a deep cycle battery it would hold up. That and it would make replacing the battery a whole lot easier.

@@richardlapoint1845 there’s a few reasons to still run a odessey pc680 or similar battery....they are cheaper to replace and if you have it hooked up on the battery tender while it sits (which you should do even with regular oem batteries) I garauntee you it will crank up
