Make Your Ford Focus RS Punchier With Mountune's New 370 HP Upgrade

Ford Focus RS owners can now further enhance the performance of the hot hatch with an official power upgrade package, co-developed between the Blue Oval's Performance division and Mountune.

Comprising of a high-performance air filter, upgraded air re-circulation valve, alloy crossover duct with high-performance silicone hoses and remapped ECU, Mountune's new performance upgrade squeezes an additional 25 PS (25 HP) and 40 Nm (30 lb-ft) of torque from the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine, bringing the total output up to 375 PS (370 HP) and 510 Nm (376 lb-ft) of torque.

This translates into an improved naught to sixty two mile (100 km/h) sprint time by 0.2 seconds (4.5 seconds) over the standard super hot-hatch, making the Focus RS faster than a Porsche 911 Carrera with a manual transmission, while top speed remains at 165 mph (266 km/h).

"Ford has a proud history of working with Mountune to unleash even more power from our hot hatchbacks for dedicated performance enthusiasts. Boosting power to 375 PS launches the already class-leading Focus RS even further ahead of the field", said Ford Performance vehicle engineering Manager Tyrone Johnson.

Fully compatible with the automaker's warranty and priced at £899 ($1,190) in the United Kingdom, the power upgrade requires 1.5 hours of work to be installed and it can be fitted at any Mountune-appointed Ford dealer.
