THIS PIPE WAS HIDING ALL MY TURBO FLUTTER | TURBO TO CROSSOVER BAFFLE DELETE ON THE MK2 FOCUS ST

[@GCMYT]

Get in touch with Lewis Gilbert from RST FABRICATIONS - he makes the coolest custom st bits :)

[@Josh-li3cy]

Hope you guys are surviving love the mk2 st's!

[@Alex-zt9kp]

he scammed me and many others

[@Q3ToPBuZz]

The whole point of using silicon pipes is so they don't expand. Saying they expand and therefore let more air through is complete bollocks. There is no reason it would expand even if it could, it's on the intake. It's before the turbo.There is no pressure.

[@Beansswtf]

Does my head in when people talk a load of shit just for the tubes lol. Just install the part and stfu haha.

[@BenSchofield]

He was very confidently chatting shit, makes me laugh.

[@marxmcrae]

No silicone hoses DON’T expand, that is the whole point of them!!

[@lucassuhadolnik3672]

I got a good laugh when he said that

[@Madogen]

Dropping that air silencer makes a massive difference, you'll really hear those flutters after the valve mods.

[@peterza15]

For those also doing this mod, you can use a small amount of engine oil and rub it on the inside of the silicone hoses. That will make it ALOT easier when you fit it and you can move it ALot easier into place before clamping everything. Your welcome 😜

[@Beansswtf]

No, please don't lol. Engine oil causes silicone hoses to swell and causes all sorts of problems. If you need to use a lube, use silicone spray.

[@kellysworld2850]

Did not know this even existed!! I can tell it's so much louder... Every time I see this car pop up, it makes me so happy 🙈 such a sexy ST225!

Where do you got it from ? I live in France and there’s not as much choice for performance parts for my ST 225 as in UK .. I want to delete this baffle too but can’t find the delete pipe

Makes a huge difference upgrading the turbo to crossover pipe. I did mine on my EO st today, I have the dreamscience CAI located behind the front wheel, sounds really loud, especially with forge recirc valve and forge actuator 👍🤙🤙🤙

Fix a smaller registration plate and place it in the bottom in front of the intercooler instead, much cleaner look. Nice ST, Keep up the good works👍

[@pauljenkinson8756]

Why would you put anything in front of the intercooler

[@mathewwade1415]

Sounds great, although a before and after video would have been best to hear the improvement

[@jayhow997]

Silicone hoses don't expand on the cold side that's the sucking side so anything from airbox to turbo is vacuum hence why most of it is hard pipe, from turbo to intercooler is the pressured side.

[@shaunsnyman5107]

Its a never ending money pit

[@ryanst5006]

Wow every days a school day! I didn’t not realise that about that turbo hose was going to change mine anyway but just thought it was just a nasty looking stock hose 😂, great vid mate need these during isolation lol!

[@holtyphotography344]

great video definitely look into getting one myself. but can i recommend some fabric wiring tape for your ecu wires to tidy it up and protect them. easiest way is disconnect battery and unplug the ecu and then wrap the loom it tidys it up alot.

[@Wilkkid1]

Isn’t the standard pipe decent at stopping it cave in and cause running issues?

[@geraldswain3259]

Yes and in 15yrs when these become collectable and very sought after , people will be ripping all that shit off and paying fortunes for the original thrown away parts .

[@ma70guy]

I watched this video to see how to refit the original hose on the ST I just bought. All done, it's much better now!

[@vinkorosandic2901]

Yap... My focus st mk2 is stil factori stock..

[@mat5267]

These will not be collectible in 15 years. It’s all about the RS, as the RS badge has pedigree. Just look at the prices of the mk2 RS vs the ST today, they are miles apart.

[@UnknownPeg0X46X34]

I’ll give you a good tip, from silicone pipe you do get a better flutter but with spending the same amount you spent for the silicone pipe you can get better sounds and performance from a titanium pipe with a nice polished look

[@royevans4581]

Oh cool info. mate. I was umming and aaring about getting one of those as I've put all new pipes on up to that point on the induction side. I just thought that last one was a cosmetic change until now, I did not know of any baffles in there robbing us of lovely sounds! I still have not taken my bonnet duvet off yet, yes I know I gotta get it ripped out. Cheers guys, stay well and hope Luke feels better after mumps, I hear it's not a good thing to get when you are not a kid, but maybe that's an old wives tale, I dunno. Shame we don't have an OBD2 port so we can just plug a reader in and see what's up. Diagnosis would be easy. Oi mate you got a covid19 code up, bank 1 lol.

[@leannemccarthy4714]

Highly recommend getting a jubalie screw driver alot easier 👌

[@jamesjack6769]

It's hard to think of the reason Ford put the baffle in there originally. Was it for strength? Surely not sound depression as they went to all that lengths to introduce engine noise into the cabin with the sympothsiser plastic gubbins.

[@jamesjack6769]

@@mcgherkinstudios Did Ford think we would like induction noise but not turbo noise?

[@bobertrarton6266]

Probably just to stop it collapsing when the standard air filter needs changing and the engine is hot.

I don't think they make the same boost level in idle so you won't get the full effect. The engine will need to be under load i.e. driving, to get the full effect.

Just so you know bigger pipe doesn’t always mean more flow and silicone pipes will only swell under pressure, this is pre turbo so vacuum

remove the Standard pipe and jump on it or put in a vice just break the plastic baffle no need to buy a silicone pipe. if going bigger turbo then change. The whole point of using silicon pipes is so they don't expand. its sucking there is no pressure anyway.

Plz sort out those harnesses, the placement on your body is really dangerous

[@thorengebretsen5132]

Peaople need to learn the difference between Blow off, turbo flutter and wastegates... Blow off = what this car is doing. Dumping over pressured air to atmosphere. Turboflutter = over pressurized air bouncing back into the turbine blades, and cutting the air (tsu tsu tsu-sound) THIS IS BAD!! can potentially break your turbo. Wastegates = has nothing to do with any sound the "turbo" makes. Is only there to dump pressure from the turbomanifold, and prevents the turbo from spinning faster than it is designed or mapped to do.

[@stanislavczebinski994]

No offense - but that strut is mounted the wrong way round. Plus, IDK if it's an issue on Focus mk2, but many cars get cracked domes if you don't connect it to all the bolts - as it is from the factory. That's a harness belt - not a harness bra. Therefore, it should roughly be were you're belt is. Ever heard of submarining? If not - you will now when it happens.
