Giving my new custard a taste!
In this video, I review the recent mods that I have done and had done to my Ford Focus RS MK3 - the FPM375 kit / setup from Mountune!
On the quest for more power in my Ford Focus RS I installed the Mountune induction kit and the recirc valve and then completed the setup with the software calibration or map to compliment the hardware for FPM375 - so now I am running 375 horsepower! This was done at the Mountune Pro Trust Ford dealer in Northern Ireland - Knockmore, Lisburn Trust Ford :)
All the hardware and the map itself is not only excellent quality but is also Ford approved - the FPM part of the setup stands for 'Ford Performance by Mountune' - so will not affect the vehicle base warranty!
Although not part of FPM375, I did also get the Mountune sound suppression chamber (or SSC for short) installed as I was getting annoying whistle noises from the turbo and this is designed to remove them - I think the whistle would have been even louder with the additional aggression of FPM375 so I think the SSC is a must!
The sound suppression chamber (SSC) gets rid of the annoying whistle noise that happens when bypassed air goes past a small metal resonator on the turbo - a strange design flaw that is fixed with this simple part! The metal resonator is replaced with an identical part with a hole in it and then a silicone hose is placed over this. The hole stops the whistle and the hose stops a leak from being created.
I give a rundown of how the car now feels, sounds and pulls with the Mountune FPM375 setup - as well as giving you my top tip if you want more flare and choice with colours and also do a launch control start to see how it compares!
The last part of this video is showing how I installed the all important Mountune FPM375 badge on the boot hatch of my RS!
There is a specific location for the badge however I do sometimes see some people with the badges in the wrong place which suggests some odd things to me but I will let you form your own opinions on that ;)

I think you'll notice what I noticed with the MP215. The power increase isn't mind-boggling. The usability of the power is what I've come to appreciate. The power band is so much easier to use. I can let the clutch out from a stop, and I don't have to give it the gas. It just goes. Torque, right off the bottom, for days. Feels like an old school V8 with an automatic. Also, that badge looks BOSS!

I had a Mountune MR300 Focus ST that was savagely quick between 4 and 6 thousand revs. When I first test drove a stock RS, unbelievably I was slightly underawed as I was expecting a substantial improvement. I ended buying an RS already fitted with FPM375, and feel it's almost a must buy, or maybe how the car should've left the factory. I don't want anyone thinking I'm having a pop at the stock car. It's not just about going quick in a straight line. Top video as always Adam. 👍🏼

Cheers Mark, I know what you are saying and I agree - the FPM375 is needed to make the RS what it should be :)

Hello Adam, love the video and I can understand why you have gone mountune. You need to get yourself the mountune cat back system which will compliment it. I went for the Remus option due to having part issues with mountune but I’m sure you will have no issues. 🙂
@AdamRainey
@AdamRainey 5 лет назад
Cheers mate :) Yea on exhausts I am still not decided. I do like the Mountune but funny you should mention remus, I was looking into it a bit recently and quite like it too!

Hi Adam, Great content as usual. I have the Mountune hardware, intake, recirc valve and ssc. I've approached this like you did. I wanted the colour hoses, and the induction pipe with the silver Mountune writing rather than all black. Now after the 375 tune, but went to a mountune pro dealer and they said I would need to buy the complete kit. How did you get around this having bought all the hardware previously? I see in the intro you have the relevant paperwork. Did you have to buy the tuning box for them to put the tune on? Thanks in advance and keep up the great content. 👍🏼
@AdamRainey
@AdamRainey 5 лет назад
Hi Robert, your dealer has told you wrong. I got the calibration only FPM375 which doesn't come with a tuning box - the tuning box version is M375 which isn't warranty friendly. I can give you the exact product code from Mountune that you can take to your dealer: 2536-FPM375-BA Focus RS FPM375 upgrade kit (calibration only)
@robertwignall325

@robertwignall325
@robertwignall325 5 лет назад
Hi Adam, The first dealership couldn't/wouldn't do the calibration. They even told me they don't do Mountune, despite the Mountune site stating they do. So I tried a second dealership who said that branch couldn't but their other branch could, but they never got back to me. So I asked a bit further away at Tim Norton Ford who replied very quickly and said they do, can and happy to help. So booking in for end of May. Looking forward to it, tho was harder to sort than I thought it would be. Thanks again for your help 👍🏼

Glad you got there in the end Robert. I did have some issues of being ignored etc in the past as well but I am pretty well sorted with this dealer I have now and the contacts I have so hopefully now you are in the same position. Enjoy!

Hello Adam .. I wonder if you could help. I’ve got a mk3 rs with factory fpm375 fitted.. Recently I removed the mountune re-curculating valve and fitted a forge dump valve. Now hears the question , do you think this could actually slow the car down or is it just All in my head😩 .. I could be and am sure I’m imagining it but the bite to me just doesn’t feel the same.. Any help or theories would be well received … Many Thanks 🤔

The noise you are hearing will be the combination of the open ended filter and the removal of the sound deadening from under the bonnet
