Ford has today announced an approved Mountune performance upgrade for the Focus ST hatchback.

The Mountune Performance package comprises a larger intercooler, a high-flow air filter and re-mapped engine management software, increasing power to 256bhp and torque to 400Nm ò€“ lifting the fast Ford right into Audi S3 territory. The standard ST makes do with 222bhp and 320Nm.

The increases mean the 0-62mph sprint is shaved by 0.6 seconds to 5.9 seconds, and because the upgrade is Ford approved it does not affect the manufacturerò€™s warranty.

Priced at Ò£1,120 plus fitting, the kit can be fitted to new or used cars by a select group of specialist dealers, a list of whom can be found at www.mountuneperformance.com. A performance suspension kit for the Focus ST is also under development, as well as upgrade packages for other Ford models.
