  • Why does the UK's worst Ford Focus ST only produce 187BHP?
    In this episode we start pulling the ST apart to figure out why our ST is so slow when we bought it advertised as having a stage 2 remap on it.
    We find out what the issue is as well as finding a few others but can we fix it?.

    Yea you guys pulled out the turbo the hard way. Easier way is to disconnect the lower gearbox-subframe mount and have one of you swing the engine block away from the firewall, then pass the turbo and manifold down past the subframe. HTH for the reinstall :)

    Great content guys, worth changing the boost control solenoid on turbo are a common fault aswell 👍🏼

    Had the same issue with mine and my friends ST year's ago. It was the boost solenoid had failed on both cars. Might be worth replacing that while it's stripped.

    Just use a reverse twist lug nut remover removes any nut and goes over any locking nut no welding

    Hammer a 3/8 drive 12mm socket into centre of locking wheel nut and Bobs your uncle, done a few of them 😮

      Hopefully it will feel like a completely different car once it’s back together 👀 should nearly double the bhp 😂

    I bought an even worse focus than yours ! Not as much rust but it was 2,600 with 178k miles the seller lied saying that it had a full rebuild so i was happy and bought it and it blew up after 70 miles of normal driving never even took it to redline :(
