Ford revealed the RS500 last week...
recently revealed Focus RS500 limited edition
sold out within moments of its official announcement, but a new performance pack from Mountune means you can build your own instead.
The factory-approved package includes a series of engine upgrades similar to those fitted to the RS500. The kit was developed by Ford's Team RS powertrain engineers in partnership with Mountune's performance fettlers, and a full testing and durability programme ensures there is no impact on the car's standard warranty.
....now RS owners can join the fun
The Focus RS performance upgrade increases peak power from 300hp to 345hp (350PS), while torque rises from to 324lb ft to 340lb ft. Modifications releasing the extra urge include a larger intercooler, a larger air filter box, a larger diameter exhaust downpipe and an uprated fuel pump, along with an updated software calibration.
The new MP350 package is available from Mountune Performance via a selected network of Ford dealers, initially in the UK, with a European roll-out planned later, the company says.
Mountune also points out this is the only Ford-approved upgrade for the Focus RS, and also the only aftermarket package available which does not invalidate the standard Ford warranty - so there!
