Dream Car I could watch and listen to the sound of the 5cyl Turbo engine all day, Nice video

Many thanks for the comment and support :)

Forged and running all that yet for Afew hunner you could get an Anembo and use that extra flow to good use. Actually shocked to see this..

[@andrewrawle7834]

This is my car!!! It's got revo stage 4+ Running 420bhp at 1.6 bar of boost at the moment.tuned by auto specialists and devil developments.a lot more done since this video. Won't list everything cos I be here all day.

[@deano1864]

Andrew Rawle ... i love the car i just got an ST2 60 plate. its standard apart from a miltek cat back and rs injectors and spark plugs. but quiet hard come across standard now that why i bought it. best think i ever had. but petrol is a bummer as my last car did 55mpg. haha but yes you got a stunning car!

[@kentautomotive5599]

[@vincesplc]

lovely motor mate has to be said,, bit of an ANIMAL!

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

It's crazy to have that amount of power in a FWD car. But the owner still uses this as his daily family car.

Do you enlarge turbo charge?

What diet did you put her on to lose 67kg?

[@ThePaperchaser1000]

400 bhp in one of these is insane and crazy... Could of done this to my one of 4 years in EO colour but had to sell it to buy a house .... Definitely have another one No Doubt!!!

[@waynester71]

ThePaperchaser1000 Do it! I bought a new EO ST-3 back in 2006 but sold it too soon.. so, 2 years ago I bought another EO 57 plate.. this time I have modded a few things: DS remap (Perf+ at mo) Cobra Venom cat-back exhaust Cobra 20/40 springs SCC poly bushes Bola B1 white alloys Thinking about having the Collins Performance CP340 upgrade next

[@ThePaperchaser1000]

+waynester71 Lol I intend to pal Only this time I'd like to get to at least 350 bhp with all the pretty bits too lol ..Got a bit of a fetish for those Anembo inlet manifolds ..very tasty and apparently they make a big difference than most other makes ..👍

Got one of these myself running over 400bhp forged etc totally mental cars when u push them past the normal 300ish

I agree with you, having 400bhp to the front wheels is crazy but can also be quite easy to drive! Yours does sound mental!

julius dogta no, standard focus..... Is to standard To big cost, wasting money, firstly focuses lower that ST have 2.0 and lower engines 4 cyl

[@mizayuki]

It's the same motor from the S40, not the S60 :)

[@LeighoHenry]

Hi mate, abit of a long shot commenting on here, but I'm now the new owner of this car and yes it's an absolute monster! But I'm trying to find out the contact details of the guy that built it, Andrew his name is (the mechanic) just trying to find out some details about the build etc as I'm looking to tweak it but want to know a few things first. Any info at all would be great, Cheers 👍🏼

i’m looking to get some custom stuff for my dad as a gift any idea on stuff i can get for him ?????

Depends on what he already has mate

Quite a lot of smoke out the back when you gave it some high revs, maybe something the owner should look out for.

need to know who builds moded engines for these

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

A company called Devil Developments are able to build these engines.

[@waynester71]

A1M, Hatfield tunnel? Know it well.. on my 2nd ST225, but with only a Cobra cat-back and DS Perf+ remap this video is tempting me to take things further. Though I think it would make better financial sense to get an RS....

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

Yes indeed that is the Hatfield Tunnel. Haha, it does get tempting when I watch videos of other cars with certain modifications too. A RS does sound like a lot of fun too!

Mines 414bhp on revo stg4+ this will be more 380-400 on the revo stg4 map probably less running a standard inlet

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

Hi, this car really did make 415bhp at Devil Developments with the mods it has using a Dyno Dynamics rolling road. I've seen the dyno sheet. Where did you get your car mapped?

[@ghost-nl2fj]

Hi m8,had mine done also at devil development running the revo stg4+ map which is slightly better than the revo stg4 map most stg4 run around 380-400 that I've seen...maybe this car is on the stg4+? Which would explain the bhp

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

+matthew jeenes Now that would be interesting if this is on the stage 4+ map. Unfortunately I can only tell you guys what has been done to car by the owner. Otherwise I would never be able to guess half the stuff. Your car must look really nice, would you mind posting some photos on our Facebook page? facebook.com/performancecars2.0

[@TheCuntreeboi]

lol 10-60. Never seen that before. NIce

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

+TheCuntreeboi Hi, I chose 10-60 as it means I don't have to launch the car which could potentially damage parts. It also eliminates any traction issues. This is the best way I can think of as a fair test.

[@justsomedude1488]

Why you wearing gloves you twat hahaha edit. Good video btw.. nicely done

[@euanscotland]

Used to own an st (before i crashed her) it's an ST. It was never an RS, no matter what RS parts you put on them it will always be an ST. Save your money. Buy an RS

[@johnjackson12]

Agreed! Unfortunately a good RS still fetches £20k in the UK. An equivalent ST is half that. I owned the mk2 ST with dsci remap and decat, 275bhp loads of pops and bangs and easily fast enough for the roads. No point spending silly amounts like this modding an ST though as like you said still an ST

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

I can see where you are coming from but some people don't have the money to buy the RS outright but are able to get a ST and modify it slowly. The owner of this car did just this and he can safely say he did most of the modifications himself apart from the tune which makes it unique I suppose. I hope your accident wasn't too bad.

[@euanscotland]

+PerformanceCars yeah, kudos to the guy. 30mph crash , so nothing to mental, killed the car though. Great cars, don't think I would get another unless only for weekends. Then again where is the fun in that???

[@euanscotland]

+john jackson friend of mine is selling his 2 year old bmw. Selling it for 22k. Bought it for 37k . Lol (yes he is a knob) anyway. He would be best buying an RS for the 22k as in two years time he will be able to probably sell it for the same money. Good investment if you ask me. And a great way to get to meetings quickly!

[@euanscotland]

+john jackson mine was also running at the same, dream science , pop pop bangs were great. My neighbours still hate me

[@daynight1921]

Haha I take that you have tried and tested this 😉

[@euanscotland]

+Jake Butchart yeah maxed out my old one a few times. Speedo said 158mph, my gps said 149mph. My bum hole said HELLO.

[@kirkgregory1]

shud of took the limiter off then if you only hit 149mph on the gps. had mine upto 169 on the gps then my arse started to leak abit so let go of the noisy peddle lol

[@coupeturbo8684]

Euan scotland thats a stupid comment...for the power it should be doing more in 4th gear... my 2 liter 5 cylinder turbo does 108mph in 3rd gear... an its not running this power or near

[@euanscotland]

HHHMMMMM,. Nah, I stand by my comment. They are maxed out at 152mph. So if he is doing 110 in 4th and still has another two gears to go , are you telling me that that 5th and 6th are only good for 15mph??? And another point. Your speedo is fucked. FYI.. away and clear your da's car.

[@StayPuft80]

50 psi so that's around 3.3bar. Rs turbo making over 3 bar? bollocks video

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

+Lee Howling Calm down, not everyone is perfect. Your language is terrible for something so minor. I'd hate to imagine your behaviour for something serious. The owner decides what he wants to do with his car. At the end of the day, he's not building an all out race car.

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

I don't know where you are getting your information from as I never say 50psi. It's 15psi I'm glad you edited your original comment too.

[@StayPuft80]

So 15 psi is 1 bar.... RS turbo making less than the standard ST turbo with a stage 1 or 2 remap then? If its only making 15 PSI this is not 415bhp & 465lb

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

Go and ask Devil Developments if you want all the facts and figures. They are the tuners with the dyno. I don't think anyone in this world would be able to sit in a car and tell you how much power it makes without looking at a dyno readout. At that point in the video when I accelerated it was 15psi. I'm not going to lie and make up numbers. Don't forget I am on a public road so won't be at full throttle for long.

[@zzebowa]

Doesnt look that quick.

[@sb4bm]

That's not 415bhp hahahahahahahahahahaha no chance

[@PerformanceCarsChannel]

Believe it or not, the owner showed me the dyno printout from Devil Developments. I can't comment much after seeing that.

[@coupeturbo8684]

sb4bm and you would know how? 5 cylinders have more linear power delivery than these little toy 4 bangers so just because its not going fucking insane it doesnt mean its any less

[@DRFilmCo]

you wearing gloves is kinda ridiculous.
