Headwork and cams
Lighten and balance where appropriate

Fancy doing something a bit different after owning a series 2 and at the same time show that the RS 2000 really is a real RS
What about a Focus ST170 engine ? will that fit in a RS2k ?

It's 170bhp before you start, high reving, steel rods, VVTI, 4 branch manifold, duel stage inlet or go for throttle bodies. Then all you would need is management & mapping and without the cat you could see between 190-200bhp.
