Focus ST engine rebuild Pt. 1 - Here we go again...
Long time no see. I apologize for my absence in the realm of UA-cam or social media for almost a year. Unfortunately, the focus suffered an engine failure at the last track day and I have been taking some time to let it soak in and put together a game plan for how I wanted to tackle this challenge. With the shop space supplied by Rockstar Garage, I am able to effectively pull the engine and get cracking on the engine rebuild. I am beyond grateful for this opportunity and I'm so excited to be making content once again. I hope you guys enjoy and make sure to subscribe to see the future rebuild videos! This time around I'll be going more in depth and explaining the techniques that I'll be practicing to get this engine running better than ever. Happy to be back.

Clutch has left the chat - Focus ST
Переглядів 3,2 тис.Рік тому
So I was under the impression that my car had terrible wheel spin when getting into boost. I was promptly proven wrong when my clutch decided to pretty much eat itself alive causing damage that luckily was recoverable. I decided to upgrade to an unsprung clutch disk to give the drivetrain a more direct feel and to see the benefits of getting the clutch/flywheel balanced together. You'd never be...
Fully built Focus ST at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway
Переглядів 6 тис.2 роки тому
I cannot put into words how this day made me feel! After making some changes to the air ducting and a better oil cooler, I could finally push the ST harder for longer. The extra seat time allowed me to set a new unofficial PB of 2:05. I say unofficial because of the circumstances but I go into it later in the video. The temps stayed very consistent and when they got higher than I'd like them to...
Trying to keep the temps down - Focus ST Track Car
Переглядів 3,5 тис.2 роки тому
I'm back! After a 6 month hiatus I am finally back in front of the camera and working on the ST! So the last time we were at the track, the car suffered severely from getting too hot and struggling with heat soak in just 85 degrees F. This issue caused me to be reserved and not push the car to its full potential. In the past I shaved the grill to help "free up airflow", but I was so wrong. Just...

This is a pretty important video because it marks the start of a new chapter for this channel. TBR Performance has been a thought of mine for some time now but I didn't really know how to make the switch. 10,000 subscribers seemed like a fitting milestone to officially make the channel directed towards me and my journey of obtaining knowledge and testing theories in motorsport. It's a chance fo...

Focus ST Big Turbo Install (THE EASY WAY)
Переглядів 88 тис.3 роки тому
Even after all I have done to my car on the channel, I still have not posted a video on how to install a big turbo kit on a Focus ST! Well the time is now to see how I like to do it and how easy it really is to transform your ST and take advantage of everything these cars have to offer without sacrificing reliability. Thank you so much for watching and I hope this helps anyone out there trying ...

If you haven't already, make sure to go watch the video covering the last track day at Chuckwalla Valley Raceway to get up to speed on the problems I encountered with the ST after a full day of track time. The car performed very well but not without problems unfortunately. In this video, I go into what happened to my car at the track and what caused it to happen. This was one of may lessons thi...
Track testing fully built Focus ST (Chuckwalla Valley Raceway)
Переглядів 13 тис.3 роки тому
So we finally made it back out to the track! These past couple years of preparation couldn’t have prepared me enough for the amount of fun I had at this track. Both the car and the track felt great besides the car running into some boost/tuning issues towards the end of the day. The 3 major differences this time around were the R1 Concepts big brakes, the Bridgestone RE71-R tires and the Whitel...
R1 Concepts Big Brake kit - Focus ST
Переглядів 4,7 тис.3 роки тому
The time has finally came to install a big brake kit on the ST! This car has needed this upgrade for a long time now. Once the car began to get faster and lighter, stopping became one of the biggest issues and made the car very scary to drive fast because you wouldn't know if you'd be able to stop in time, or stop at all for that matter. I'd like to thank R1 Concepts for giving me the opportuni...
How I Built a Fun Focus ST
Переглядів 7 тис.3 роки тому
So over the past 5 years, I have practically disassembled and reassembled this car from the ground up. I get a lot of people asking what all is done to the car up to this point to get it to where it is today. Well, this video should answer most of the questions people have been asking or want to ask. Let me know in the comments what else you think I should do to the car to make it perform well ...

How to cool down your Focus ST/RS
Переглядів 7 тис.3 роки тому
So the ST has needed some upgrading in the cooling department for a while now, so fortunately enough, I recently got my hands on a Koyorad radiator! All my friends pitched in and got me this beautiful radiator for my birthday and I cannot thank them enough for such an awesome gift. I had already purchased the hood vents months in advance, and once I got my hands on the new radiator, it was time...
Focus ST Engine Problems... What you should know
Переглядів 28 тис.3 роки тому
So, the ST has given more headaches than smiles as of recently. The hunt continues for all the little gremlins this car has that prevent it from being its absolute best. Even though the car can be a huge pain at times, I will never let it discourage me. There is a lot of information in the video and I would highly suggest watching if you want to learn a thing or two about how to safely make pow...
Stage 3 Cams & Head Overhaul (Focus ST) - Part 2
Переглядів 13 тис.4 роки тому
So, the time has come to see what this thing is all about. At this point, the ST is fully built, equipped with a GTX2867r (0.64 a/r), has dual port aux fueling, is running on e50, and has all supporting mods. Once we get the car dialed in, I'm gonna get it on a dyno to see the new power curve in comparison to what it was with the stock cams. There is much more to come for this car and this chan...

Where did this wing come from
A year later and still waiting on part 2!
I know this is an older video but did you not have to get a new turbo with the new engine since the old one was bad?
Hi, I also mounted the Bc racing on a 595 Abarth but I can no longer remove the hard-soft knobs from the front shock absorbers, is this normal? Have you also encountered this problem? Thanks
Sounds great but for daily driven the 252hp is fine. Your just gonna kill someone or get in an accident and a ton of speeding tickets.
Hey I’m looking to build my ST any recommendations on brands and parts??
Awesome video good info and good at explaining everything
What blowoff do you use?
Where did you get the sports seat mounts?
Are these the springs that got recalled ?
Where u get that front splitter man😊
I always wished i saved my money when i lived with my parents .
You should do a video how to put the blow off valve with this new turbo.
Do you have a video about adjusting the dampeners? Are they easy to adjust after everything is put back on? Or do you have to take wheels off
Update you can run the N/A head from a vin8 5th digit focus se, sel, titanium which has the 4 ports versus the singular for the turbo and a zx3 exhaust manifold bolts right in. You can plate it off so it does what it needs to with the turbo (which that little k03 does mount into as well) helps with the heat displacement and parts are significantly cheaper and just a touch more durable (again due to the dispersion of heat)
I've owned a lot of cars and have equally watch a ton of UA-cam mechanic videos.... Honestly though, this was easily the best video I've ever watched. I was searching Fiesta ST and this came up. I don't even own a Focus and I still watched it. Lol... Great job to those involved!
Dude...with all respect...you guys are all over the place....hard way to follow your "back and forth" way to install the BOV...easy to get lost on your tutorial... Im sure you guys could done a better job on going step by step. I had to stoop watching cause it was more confusing then helpful.
Which turbo is this?
what clutch was in this at this time of the video? My car is running the bNR3071 with the XDi HPFP and injectors, but the Spec Stage3+ clutch and Spec LW flywheel are very chattery. Ive been told its normal and some say it eventually goes away..but its def noticeable and I'm only at 1200mi on a fully built motor/clutch.
Content is great but the videography is realllly short of good.. turn off the auto focus and light adjustment or add more light during your production. PLEASE - thanks.
Very nice video. Well done
Focus brakes
Great video. Thank you! 10:53 I need to do this on my 1987 Turbo. Not too many videos out there for that car. But looks like things should be very similar.
the mods are very tasteful. gorgeous car..
Better to be thought of as a fool, than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt! STFU!
In the ford focus st engine manual I have, it says to do 5 stages on the 10 head to bottom block bolts and stage 3 says 41 FtLb and stage 4&5 are both an xtra quarter turn
What if the coil pack spits out the spark plug? It like slides out of it if that makes sense even tho it's 100% on it the way it should.
Planing to change my clutch and this is the only video I found that actually helped me you can see my st in my pfp and I got plans for this car thanks man 😂🙏🏼
When the revs climb suddenly is that from wheelspin or what? 19:07 19:49
I have a vision of a steering wheel looking like a real rim! I'm talking about the lip and everything! And black suede with white and yellow line like vogues ! I got my Patent im trying to come out with the hardest steering wheel ever made!!!!! Remember my name because your gonna see me in the car game BIG!
$ $ Make that intake what’s your ig
Hi, would you please LMK part number for KING BEARINGS? Thanks
Sounds like the neon SRT4
Cool car, I really dislike the sound these ST's make. They just sound like poop to me...could be the audio making it sound crappy, but I dont think I have ever heard an ST that sounded good.
I had same issue but with an oil passage. Its a low speed preignition make sure your engine oil is API spec SP you need a 97 or greater octain fuel too.
Very informative! Taking off the axle was a smart move and only a few extra steps. I only have one gripe: Camera operator should've used a light. It would've helped tremendously since there was a lot of backlighting from the open roll-up door. It also would've helped with focusing the camera at times. But, hindsight, as they say, is 20/20. Still, a great walkthrough of how to swap out the factory turbo.
When you get state refereed and you have to sell it, give me a call.
😊
Nice to see young guys appreciate the 944 and get their capable hands dirty.
Really great content! Can you put the videos for the full rebuild in order? I am a novice and am grateful for the hardwork, but I think it would help to have the videos load in order! Appreciate all the information you show us!
whats the part number on the ARP head studs ?
How much . .
May I ask, what front lip is that?
Any updates?
SER damn near impossible to get xe gxe e I’ve found but ser literally impossible for me atleast 😂
Offset boxed end wrench.
What would you charge to rebuild st engine??
Great vid! Any chance you know how to remove the rocker arms with the roller?
you use your hand top compress the spring a bit and it unclips
OK i may of missed it somewhere. Just picked up a 2012 Arbarth and previous owner took out the rear seat. Where can i get that Rear Brace Bar
Whats holding the radiator up? You're missing the entire lower support... You wont really notice a functional oil cooler until you're really tracking it, the oil temps stay fairly low without a cooler just driving around. When its being 'hot lapped' or driven like its stolen for a few minutes solid maybe. I only put on my Mishimoto cooler (with thermostatic plate) for track days. A plus is, with the FL-400S oil filter (.25qts extra over stock), and the right oil cooler (.75qts), you gain a full quart of oil capacity.
