Ford Focus ST with m365 Mountune kit

Officially, the fourth-generation Ford Focus RS is not coming this year. So, the British company Mountune upgraded the Ford Focus ST with the M365 kit.

Thanks to the M365 kit, the ST’s 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine delivers 365 hp and 413 lb-ft (560 Nm) of torque. The ST M365 has a six-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. The Focus ST offers two driving modes: Sport and Track.

The increase in power of 82 hp and 102 lb-ft (140 Nm) of torque, compared to the standard ST, was achieved thanks to hardware upgrades, improved exhaust system, remapping of the ECU. Remapping is done via the SMARTflash app, and all you need is a smartphone and a Bluetooth OBD interface. This power boost will cost you $ 800 (€ 700).

With all the upgrades, the engine produces enough juice for the ST to reach a top speed of 155 mph (250 km / h). The car underwent long tests that included tens of thousands of kilometers, endurance test and collection of various data.

With a weight of 3325 pounds (1508 kg) and improved performance, the ST has reached the Focus RS level.
