Not that much..my dad knows the owner of Wolf Tuning so we get a lot of the stuff free for trial testing..but the thing is..they already tested it in Germany,its just checking what its like for the british roads etc. And talking about a chevy the focus blows most things off the road..400+ nm/t means the power is constant low down, great for the small B roads we have around here. And kind of expected what from manchester folk :O

Had the code red software put on properly today, all i can say is wow..what a difference, an utterly different car, absolutely annialates all things and the 0-60 is under 5 secs now. Hammers most things on the road with its low down power. It just constantly wants to go.

Not bad for a £450 mod ..made by RAIDHP and Wolf Tuning.

About 300 hopefully, we havent had it Rolling Roaded yet.

Best thing about this car is the Torque figures, more than a lot of cars.

Gotta admit, 135 is a scary speed!..still had loads to give aswell.

What I don't get is how the hell do Subaru get over 300 BHP out of their STi package stock I wish Ford made a high end engine for the focus..Have you seen the Roush aftermarket parts for the focus they sell some of the parts the WRC Focus' use.

I cant say i have, the only problem we are facing is with about 380 (give or take) the drive train for the fwd is fucked.

Trying to convince my dad to get it put in 4wheel drive :P..then its just a case of what size engine will fit.

Its not always about engine size, Subaru use different ECU chips to achieve desired BHP.

thats why this code red can unlock 50+ bhp from one ECU remapp that takes under an hour.

The thing is, our car has more torque than a subaru WRX STI top model, so if it came to it on twisty circuits ours could take one.

And the chassis is much better handling then a Wrx. Did you put any cosworth upgrades on it? Btw have you see some of the parts that Ford Racing is selling mad cheap and quite good!
