I decided after much deliberation to try out the Dreamscience Stratagem imap for my Focus RS Mk3. Available with 5 pre programmed maps, I go for the most advanced ‘Ultima 2+’ map to see just how much a plug and play tune can change the car’s characteristics.
The handset can be purchased here;

Thanks for the review, I'll try answer a few of the most frequent questions, 1) The RS MK3 does have an ignition counter which can be read by the Ford IDS to see how many cycles it has run, this has sparked fear in some customers as it has been rumoured this resets when remapping, however we have tested 2 x separate cars flashed with the iMap and the ignition counter was unaffected! 2) The handset holds all the OEM stock calibrations from the Ford Motorcraft website and when selecting "return to stock" your exact OEM stock file goes back into the car. 3) In 11 years we have not had a single incident when flashing back to stock 4) Evanshalshaw to offer some select DS kit as per the link below www.evanshalshaw.com/ford/servicing/dreamscience/ Team DS

thanks for testing for us :) forget power numbers what pretty much everyone who's daily driving it really want is low end torque and apparently remaps give a ton of it on this engine, great ! I installed KW DDC coilovers also to "try" fyi as there was little feedback outside of Matt Farah (and the others all changed various other things at the same time) normal becomes comfortable (more than lets say a stock last gen subaru sti) and track mode is now a mode you can use and you activate when you want to drive fast, it totally changes the car tough so if you like the spine-stabbing and dartiness of the stock RS it's not for you, it turns as well if not better but without the drama (only the PSS squealing as usual) it's way more tamed

So ive watched your video a few times now and like yourself, I agree that just under a grand for 25bhp for mountune is a bit more that I can afford. So on Monday this week I ordered myself the imap for my MK3 RS. It arrived yesterday. After the initial updates I decided that I would try the 3rd map (DS Ultima) as I only have a K&N induction kit. Well, what can I say that you already haven't. Holy F****n s***. This map is insane. Normal mode feels like the old sport mode on steroids. The pull through the gears is incredible. As for sport mode now, well, WOW. Im glad I watched your video as I would probably not have gone down this modding route. The best part is, ive still got 2 more maps to play with. Great video and well worthy of a like and sub.

Your Review is on the DSCI website :P DSCI is amazing, had it on my ST225 (XR5 here in oz) and now my RS, releases the cars full potentia. imo, the Ultima did wonders, then I realised 2+ can be flashed on Stock, S1 or S2 cars, so I went and flashed it right away. and now even I get pushed into the back of the seat(that mid range boost) with the Ultima 1 map it was mainly the passenger and I'm not a small lad, 6'4" and 230lbs

I had a dreamscience map on my mk1 RS and it is by far the best map available on standard or lightly modified cars. Tried the blufin but was very tame as boost limiters were still in place in first 2 gears, dreamscience removed the limiters and had much higher boost levels throughout the rev range. Honestly short of a custom map these are the ones to go for!

Hi mate can you do a follow up video that shows the boost gauge performance (or even a logger) on a 3rd gear pull from 2000rpm. Also if possible show if it spools quicker/higher at part throttle, which can improve driveability massively. Back to back data with the standard tune would be perfect. Cheers.....

As Dreamscience say your tune is specifically designed for upgraded down pipe at 3" with sports cat, plus the addittion of a Cold Air Intake (CAIS) and most definately running Shell V power or Tesco Momentum ONLY! Although the tune you have will still work with no mods you should always match the tune to the recommended mods!!

Christian Grethen to me Ultima felt great almost like an old skool lag then boost where as the stock power is very linear with no sense of speed. Ultima 2+'s surge feels slightly less but only just, however 2+ keeps going a lot higher up the rev range. All round 2+ makes it drive so much better. You can always swap between maps but since 2+ I haven't gone back.

Having owned the RS now for over 2 years, I’ve found it interesting to see all the modifications everyone’s done to their cars. I have no interest in lowering or tuning it as I find the performance is just fine. As for track days... lemme see; $150/day, tire wear- @ $250/tire x 4 after 3-4 events, sounds like close to $1600+/- for a bit of ego boosting adrenaline! I think all of us would like to think we can drive as good as Louis Hamilton or Sebastian Vettel but that’s just not reality. For those of us who have the desire to see what it’s like to experience true competition, go out and buy an old race car and join the local chapter of the SCCA. Better yet, buy one of the new KTM RC 390 and join the fun on the track. Last year, a friend “tuned” his RS till it holed a piston- cost, $7000.00 for a new long block engine with no warranty coverage from FoMoCo. Now that Ford has decided that maybe someone installed the wrong head gasket in some RSs, some performance modifications can be looked into. I recently watched a TV show where a Mustang’s EcoBoost 2.3 engine was helped with a new larger turbo and exhaust system to achieve an extra 100 HP and torque increase. I think Ford has done a great job to produce a streetable car with the performance perimeters of the RS. I think I’ll leave mine alone and enjoy being the slower car on the street.

Hmm, the Mountune kit also includes an alloy crossover duct and associated tubing, a new uprated diverter valve, an air filter and your warranty remains intact. Please don't think that Ford won't check for a remap, the procedure is in their work sheets - there is no such thing as no trace when you are flashing a modern ECU. Also, you are not paying for a 25 hp increase, you are paying for a greatly improved map with good increases in hp and torque at various places across the rev range. It's all about the extra area under the power curve, not the quoted figures. Just saying. Glad you're happy, and I hope you don't have any problems ;)

My car is bog standard! Do I need to update imap on my computer first? Did you have to do this?

Hi I purchased my Dreamscience handset brand new back in August 2018 only getting to install it now due an imminent service that was due and then because of the winter weather, just didn’t think it was appropriate for the time. Now already to install it but what I’m wanting to know is when I updated it , that it had 155 updates, does this sound about right? If that’s the case my handset is only 6 months old, how often have I to search for updates? Will they send me a notification or have I to constantly keep searching? That’s quite a number of updates as I say for handset being only 6 months old!

Car Focused I’ve had the head gasket work carried out on my car and I’ve gone down the Mountune route with hardware so hopefully that’s good enough. Life is too short and with M400 that’s pretty much as much performance as you can use on the road but even stage 1 with whoever you choose will bring plenty of smiles.

They can’t tell it’s been tuned or at least what was done but when u flash back to stock before going to dealer it resets computer like day one so when they flash and see you 10k miles/km but the car has only been started up 3 times they know something has been done but can’t tell exactly what.
