In this video on the AutoEdit RU-vid channel... you will see the three most cost effective yet highest rewarding upgrades for the new Ford Focus ST and we install them on my nephews car!
That is my nephew Michael Dean, and his pride and joy... a 2017 Ford Focus ST. He really loves this thing and wanted me to teach him more about wrenching on cars and help him install a "tuner kit" on this little turbo charged hot rod. After doing a bit of research... I found kits costing over $2500 and only gaining 40 or 50 horsepower.
So... I went to one of my favorite brands... Flowmaster and put together my own kit out of three different items they offer:
First up is a Delta Force Cold Air Intake
www.flowmaster...
Next up is the Flowmaster Delta Boost Module
www.flowmaster...
Exhaust kit
www.flowmaster...
Full retail for all three parts is still less than half the price of other kits and offers similar horsepower gains and a hugely improved overall driving experience. Plus, they have sales all the time so you can save a bit more. Flowmaster doesn't sell this as a tuner kit yet BUT THEY SHOULD!
Plus this was just an awesome day of wrenching with my nephew and I was just stoked to share some car knowledge with him and see him enjoy the process.
Thanks so much for watching and please subscribe to the AutoEdit RU-vid channel and give me a follow over on Instagram...

The ST is a great car. I can remember back when I was 19-20 wrenching on stuff with my dad and my uncle. Learned a LOT from driving old jeeps that always needed to be worked on.

@AutoEdits 6 лет назад

Yeah, it was a really good time! He works hard to make payments on the car and my first car was a tired old Maverick that needed work all the time so it's an interesting difference. I'm just stoked he's interested in learning more about wrenching and wants to do it with me.

Cool Stuff! My uncle has recently turned into a car guy and we have tons of fun visiting the Pull-A-Part places in the Boise area finding items in great condition to replace faded panels, busted knobs, stuff like that. I've even found some performance parts for Mustangs that fit my Bronco, For example, found a $90 fuel regulator, pulled and paid $30 and it works like new.

@greecoboost 3 года назад

Hey I really wanna thank you for making this video! I didn't know that Flowmaster made an intake for the Focus ST that was 50-State Legal! I've had my ST for just over a month and I've been researching mods like cold air intakes and have been frustrated by lack of emissions compliant choices (I'm from Cali, where you get seriously dinged for having non-compliant parts) So after I saw this video, I went to Flowmaster's website and found an affordable CARB legal intake! Score!

@oceanhome2023 6 лет назад

I’m not a kid anymore but my 2018 Focus ST was way TOO quiet, a drivers car has to have some sound to help you manipulate the engine . A TURBO car has to have. a loud blow off valve an a loud intake sound and a beautiful exhaust note . In this manner you don’t need to look at the instruments you drive by sound and that is awesome. All of those sounds are necessary to get many smiles per gallon !

@ST62382 5 лет назад

I love my ‘18 ST too but I agree, it’s too quiet. Just don’t have money to do anything and I don’t want to give dealers any reason to deny a warranty claim

@txcavi 5 лет назад

@@ST62382 I'm in the same boat as you, my 18 ST is soooooo quiet but I fear to do anything because I know how easy it is to lose my warranty. They already found a oil leak and I know they were looking for a reason to warranty it.

For under $1k you could get a Cobb AP, FMIC, and Greenfilter and get a stage 2 tune (either Cobb OTS or pay for a flash tune). Catback is nice, but it doesn't really offer anything in terms of performance gains.

@AutoEdits 4 года назад

In my opinion, this exhaust is worth the install for sound and high end looks .... don’t even care about the slight performance improvement. All that other stuff doesn’t do anything for the day to day enjoyment and drive ability in traffic and such.

@erikleas4002 6 лет назад

Is it smart to push more boost with just a Turbosmart installed? Honestly wondering. Also, has he considered a rear engine mount? Our ST's lack LSD so I'm sure that sucker still has some wheel hop. Nice kit for the price, regardless!

@AutoEdits 6 лет назад

Yes, I'm told that the engines are engineered from the factory to withstand more than the 4 psi this tuner can add. The engine mount is a very good idea... this video was just to highlight these VERY simple to do modifications for quick and easy fun.

@erikleas4002 6 лет назад

Good to know, thank you! Every ST owner I've ran into since getting mine have asked if I upgraded the REM so I finally went with cp-e's and it's a world of difference. Mountune makes a great one as well for a bit cheaper if he's interested, careful installing that one upside down. Great video!
