s40 2.0d tuning
i have been told by people on the ford focus owners club that the st intercooler is a direct fit for the 2.0tdci focus, which i have been told is the same engine as the s40 2.0d.
i know of one guy that had tuned his focus to 200bhp and 400lbft! does anyone know if the st225 intercooler is definately a direct fit? |

Intercooler and software.
I have an ST standard intercooler here which you could try, it came off my own car which I have modified considerably.
However, I very much doubt that it would make much difference to your car as the standard one should be more than adequate for a modest hike in outputs. I can offer you MTE's premium Swedish written software for your car for £435 including VAT that raises the outputs to 165bhp with 400nm of very usefull torque acrioss a wide rev. range. Regards, Don.

Don is just a MTE tuner, don't think he has an S40.

Well what ever car it is that he has "modified considerably" if it's a Volvo and guessing he is a tuner then I'd imagine he'd know if 200hp is achievable from the 2.0D....

Well Don stated he could tune it to 165BHP. Why would you want to tune it further, it will just struggle. How much money do you want to spend, you can do anything but there surely is a limit.
Buy a D5 or T5 and tune it if your looking for high BHP and torque in my opinion. |

I think you pair are spot on, As one of you has their car remapped and the other is looking into getting theirs mapped so why not share a little bit of experience of what the map does. What better way than to sit in the passenger seat...
No-one said they were speeding and you don't need to speed to show the map, you will just notice the complete difference from the standard car compared to sitting in the mapped car. Hope you both get something out of tomorrow. I would love to come along and meet you pair but unfortunately I'm at the Bike Show. |

I’ve cleaned the car and the weather has been shocking to get any decent pics yet but will try and get some up soon... I'll go start a thread now in the show room of what it was like when I got it to what it is now and then the new wheels.

Craig, that's a shame! Would have been good to have a little meet!
Maybe another weekend |
