It's definitely a noticeable difference! Going to need to upgrade my intercooler again now though to a 'stage 4' with 2.5" pipes. Still on the factory diameter albeit pro hose silicon. I find it is much quicker but in the hot weather it dials it back like it did before when I was on less power on stock cooler. In the evenings it's night and day difference.
Looking at matching the lower inlet to the new Anembo jobby basically porting it and polish from what I've read and then going for a 70mm throttle body. Then leave the power where it is as I don't want to get too close to needing forging or I'd have gone RS turbo.
Cheers mate
Cheers for the comments guys much appreciated considering on here it's just another Focus ST revving it's nuts off at Fordfair lol. It's not our fault the old school RS's are locked up in garages as investments.

Car is rapidooo compared to Mod X.
I just grew some balls and took it out for a decent run. I'm going to need to do some more suspension upgrades soon and a diff maybe in the future look for some better brakes.
I removed the Anembo, elevate and the CAIS stickers. Looks cleaner I prefer it. Also added some gold m4 Allen screws to my orange washer dress up kit.
I'm also currently contemplating buying an open cone set up. I know it's not the best for performance but I do like the intake noise which is limited with my enclosed system but we will see.
