hi people!
im getting a bit of work done on my 1.8 mk1 focus, for a bit of a change!
done a few external mods and now thinking of performance
i have orderd a stainless system consisting of 4 branch manifold,de-cat, and the system finishes with twin exit(1 at each side of the bumper,purely for looks me thinks!) also having cold air induction and a re-map, what sort of power do you think this will add...if any!?
also got st170 front and rear brake conversion goin on in the week!
thanks!!

 

What you knocking out at the moment mate?.

Could see you to about 150-160bhp I would have thought. The manifold will give you more top end power & torque thou.

st170's 4-2-1 manifold's fit on 1.8's I think.

The 1.8 Focus comes with 115bhp from the factory. I doubt that a de-cat, exhaust system and manifold will add 35-45bhp to a normally aspirated car without a re-map.

 

yea as i said above mate, its gettin a re-map as soon as all the mods have been fitted!!
cheers for the info tho!

 

the book says they have 115bhp - though most knock out about 120bhp. If all of that is mapped using some kind of after market management he'd get 150bhp. I've seen a 1.8 with the same mods near enough running 150bhp and had a unichip for the engine management.

Oops didn't see that.

I agree with you there mate.
