I have a chance of a bluefin handset for my Focus ST (which is standard at the mo) which will give a 50bhp or there abouts gain,the cost £260 brand new.

I also have the chance of a belter of an intercooler for only a little more £280 infact,albeit second hand it really is a good in.

Problem is I don't know which to get or which would be more beneficial,also both will only be around for a short time,can't quite afford both at the mo.

a massive intercooler isn't gonna be very beneficial on any standard car, any ecu adjustments will see far more gains but then it will get to a point where you will need a bigger intercooler.

I've read that the standard IC on the ST are a bit,well pants to be honest and will get the one that i can't afford in the near future,albeit non at such a good price.
