Default Focus st tuning

My mate has an ST 500, he's looking to do a couple of things to it,

first off he wants decat and exhaust system, can anyone recomend a good supplier?

he's also talong about a remap,,so i suggested there maybe somwhere that will do a stage one kit or similar, with an exhaust, air filter and map etc, which may be a better way to go, can anyone recomed a place that does that?

thanks in advance for any replies

Dreamscience will do the lot - at a great price as well

Speak to Jared or Carl and am sure they can sort something out for him

If he's looking at doing all that, why not go with the approved Ford / mountune one.

I heard the Dream sciene runs dangerously lean at higher RPMs compared to other tunes maps thats why I went with Code Red and its alot more smoother

He will need the intercooler when the weather gets warmer, I would add one to the list TBH.

+1 on the intercooler. Noticeable power drop when the weather warms up. Even when the car is standard
