Definitely right decision to have forged internals if you are going to stick a hybrid turbo or bigger turbo on. Have you also changed the clutch and flywheel as the stock MMT6 flywheel and clutch are only rated for 331 lb ft torque. Need a Focus RS dual mass flywheel & clutch or similar (these are rated at 600Nm of torque as opposed to the 450Nm of the stock ST ones). Also, a limited slip diff and rear motor mount would be a good idea to put wild torque steer at bay, and improve traction / braking and stopping the electronic driver aids having seizures over the power and torque coming through 😉
Way ahead of ya buddy. Quaife LSD and RS fly with clutch and slave incoming shortly. Got a CEUK torque mount. Yeah I really dont rate the torque vectleing system on this car as the brakes arent the biggest so they overheat a lot faster than when you just have an aftermarket LSD installed. (A video on the LSD and the full RS clutch conversion coming end of May). Also excited to have the LSD to stop tyres from getting shredded so much. Big turbo and meth wont happen until.i get it forged and that's a couple years away. Next few steps are bigger brakes, new alloys, rear seat strip and spare wheel to get a good weight saving, front buckets, already got a KBrace from BAF Motorpsort delivered ready for fitting in the next few weeks. All this will happen over the next 1-2 years. Thank is for checking out the 👌🏼 video
@@stjezeky2224 spot on... 😉 i tried to get a quaife, but lockdown and furloughing meant getting what was available, so, I have an Mfactory LSD (same thing tbh!) And like you the RS transmission pack. Bit of a mish mash on the suck/ bang/ blow side: stage 2 airtec under the hood, stage 3 intercooler, and stage 1 remap (Pumaspeed MAXD 280) ... as a result, 289bhp and 386 lb ft torque. Catback coming up early May, then later sports cat and stage 2 (perhaps early next year... see how things go). Yep, good video mate, and STs have a lot of enthusiasts I notice, which is good to see: but then its a fantastic tuning platform 😉
I also saw the MFactory diff but decided on Quaife I think. I know its like £100 more or so but I always wanted the Quiafe. I currently have a full custom exhaust, airtec intercooler and forge induction kit with a GFB DV+ valve and a steeda manifold spacer. have Yellow stuff entry track pads to put on too in the next few weeks which will be a nice but very welcome upgrade for sure! Currently on red stuff and they are absolutely woeful.
@@stjezeky2224 I was going to go for Quaife but the pandemic conditions made them unavailable to get hold of. And only because I had heard of them. But, Mfactory also have a great reputation, are used by a lot of car manufacturers (especially Japanese car manufacturers) and are made of forged tempered Japanese steel (which makes one think of their skills at steel making!), so it was a more than adequate alternative. Had Quaife parts been available, I probably would have got it. I was also looking at Wavetrac, but found the price a bit out there frankly (especially after all the labour costs are factored in dismantling the transmission!) 😉
Hey man! Do you still running on the Revo stage 2 software, is the car still reliable. I have FMIC,Denso spark plugs ( one step colder), downpipe and air filter installed and I’m considering to remap the car with the Revo stage 2. Do you still recommend them.
Yeah we get the COBB accesport (not me) but the Cobb tunes them selves genuinely lack the power when compared to the REVO or Stratified maps here (from the research I've done I think it's the way the map deliveries the power throughout the entire rev range). Plus the REVO is also probably the safest tune you can get. They dont offer a pop and bang map compared to even Stratified, they're safer but perform the same. Only reason to get strat over REVO would be if you have meth or aux fueling or an hybrid turbo. In which case when I get a bigger turbo (not hybrid) in a year or 2 I will go Stratified.
Nice review👍😼
Thanks man! Appreciated.
Did you get a left hand drive mod? ;)
Nice video, very informative.
Yeah I didn't see point in flipping the video 🤣🙈 but now that you noticed...

@@stjezeky2224 oh... and agree about the brakes!

100% Not had one issue with the map. I've done almost 45k with map since I had the map put on. Cracking 👌🏼
@@stjezeky2224 Thank you!
Any reason for not going with the Cobb over the Revo? Do you all not have a lot of Cobb tuners over there or is it something else?
Yeah we get the COBB accesport (not me) but the Cobb tunes them selves genuinely lack the power when compared to the REVO or Stratified maps here (from the research I've done I think it's the way the map deliveries the power throughout the entire rev range).
