I love how obvious it is that you love and are passionate about what you do. You're an expert with a great attitude and not even the slightest hint of arrogance. Your friendliness (and expertise too, of course) is what got me to switch from my original tuner to you. Thanks for continuing to kick ass, Alan!
I just ordered this intake and some spark plugs from y’all. I love how detailed you guys are with y’all’s videos it has helped me understand my ST so much more.
Glad to know the intake does help out. I will be picking up a focus this weekend! Can't wait to see how all these exhaust sound and perform. I'll be hitting you up for an E tune soon!
IT DOES. I used one and it makes a huge difference.. instead of asking your car for power... the *response time* once your foot hits the accelerator and you get a response is significant.. I had to back off the gas as much. 1 thing I noticed added power too. Ground your spark plugs. Run a negative cable close to the valve cover! You'll be surprised. I'm an electrician and the amount of resistance is *significant enough* to get free power.
Love the video guys.. I was wondering if are still providing E tunes for those of us living in California I just got a focus st and can’t wait to slap some goodies on it, would really love to get tuned by you hopefully in the near future… this series has been great by the way !
we can absolutely e-tune a car in CA, but with your strict regulations, a tuned car _in general_ won't pass emissions... send your deets to tuning@edgeautosport.com if you want to get the process started.
Can't wait for the exhaust video! I haven't bought one for my '17 ST yet. Would love if you could include a Mountune, FSWerks, and Ford Performance but I know you have to draw the line somewhere. It does bring back memories of the Focus exhaust shootout that was done on FocalJet back in the early '00's.
I’m buying this Intercooler for my Focus ST today , It sounds amazing! I just bought my race red ST 3 weeks ago because my fbo 09 wrx got totaled, I’m definitely going to cut a peice of hr Plexiglass will holes drilled in the top and fit it on top the filter so it looks clean & can breathe like there’s no cover.
@annoyedchef7124 it wasn't, but when you do it every 3 years it gets annoying having to take the air box out when you wouldn't have to move anything at all really if you have the right aftermarket intake
@@richardlapoint1845 on 2013 I don't need to take anything away. Just flip the wall in front of the battery and open the bolts. Then rotate it 90 degrees upwards when pulling out.
I tried to install this today on my 2016 idk how to attach the pcv hose or whatever its called to the piping mine has a sensor and i didnt get any adapter or anything
The biggest difference is the box design: The Mishi box is enclosed, while the Takeda is a partition style. Otherwise they are both aluminum and have similar filters.
j'ai un cold air intake ramair made in uk , avec une big mouth , la température iat est la même voir 2°c en moins que la température ambiant en roulant vite , ramair annonce 12cv de gain je n'ai pas vérifier avant et après au dyno.
Did you have an issue with a clunking from the airbox in 1/2 after this was installed? Seems like the airbox moves with the torque of the engine and hits the battery box maybe?
Hello friend, a question may be stupid or let's say that it has nothing to do with this video, I am writing to you this way to find out if you have used the mishimoto radiator for the civic 1.5 turbo and if you have used the hoses of it?
Awesome video as always! I know this is off topic but.... do you know if a 2013 Focus ST shifter assembly would work with my 2015 Focus ST. Need a new shifter and my buddy who's parting out his 2013 Focus ST has a short shifter on his. Wanted to use his on my car if possible
I've got a stock turbo with a similar intake set up. From what I can tell it is mostly the same. This one sounds just a bit better IMO. Of course I later changed to a true vacuum source for the recirc valve which makes it react completely different.
Yes it will after you take your stock ford rubber plug out. I have a gfb recirc valve myself and it sounds really nice once you change your charge pipes and take the turbo muffler out
Anything that can source cooler, more consistent air temps for the box is a good thing. What the actual results would be is something we haven't tested.
this replaces the stock air box with an all-metal box of their design. There is a hole for the stock air snorkel as well! Check out more photos on our site: edgeautosport.com/mishimoto-performance-air-intake-black-ford-focus-st-2013/
MBRP don't sound very good on the ST imo. I've heard a fee I like better. The Borla for one. The MBRP is one of the cheapest cost wise though and they do use decent quality materials. Had an MBRP on my 2001 Zetec Focus ZX3 years ago andit sounded amazing.
I like MBRP and prefer to support a local Canadian company but I just don't like how the MBRP sounds on the ST. I had an MBRP on my 2001 n/a 2.0 Zetec focus and it sounded amazing. New ones not even close.
