Default New focus rs running 361 bhp...

I filmed this at Ford Fair 2009, which showed a Focus Rs fitted with a KN filter, exhaust and Dreamscience. The cost of that conversion is £2000. The clip i recorded showed the results of this conversion, showing an increase from the standard 301bhp to a superb 361bhp!!! Hope you enjoy watching

Aye ... Was standing behind the car when they set it away ..

Might have been a different run as it pushed 368BHP and popped when it hit the limmiter.

And front mounted intercooler, also by the sounds of it its a "fitted" price.
Although I could be totally wrong.
However, depending on the make of exhaust its easy to reach that price if its a miltek system.

my mk1 Focus RS had remap, miltek exhaust, decat, recirc DV and filter fitted by a tuner for a little under 2k so seems about right. Doubt its with intercooler

It does mention a front mounted intercooler in the 2nd vid, and after mentioning each mod he then says the conversion is around 2k, so scope for movement in the price in that I guess.

I havnt seen one, but would of thought it would be near the same as a ST, which only seperates into 2 at the back end iirc.
Cat backs for a ST are about £300. Although it does say in the vid it has a de-cat and full 3inch exhuast.
