We reckon it's risky game trying to feed more ponies to the front-wheels of the new 305HP Ford Focus RS as there's a strong possibility that you'll end up ruining the car's handling, but then again we could be wrong. Fortunately for those that disagree with us there are plenty of tuners out there that can and will spruce up Ford's Euro hot hatch. Germany's Loder1899 is one of those companies as the tuner presented a new sport package for the second-generation Focus RS. A sport exhaust system, a new air filter and some other upgrades that are not mentioned up the output of the 2.5-liter turbocharged inline-five by 40 ponies for a total of 345 HP. The company also promises that the new exhaust system will alert your friends, neighbors etc, etc that you've fiddled around with the engine - if you catch our drift.
Furthermore, the Focus RS's body has been lowered 35mm or 1.4 inches while Loder1899 also offers a choice of 20-inch alloy wheels in various designs.
In recent years, Bavarian car tuner Loder1899 focused on dressing up products from the Ford Group lineup. Their latest creation is a styling kit for the all-new Ford Fiesta hatchback that includes a front lip spoiler, side skirts and a rear apron with an integrated diffuser housing the four tailpipes of the stainless-steel exhaust system. The package is complemented by a lowering kit (-35mm) and a set of 17-inch alloy wheels shod in 205/40 R17 tires or alternatively, 18-inch alloys in 215/35R18 tires.
Having already released various sport packages for the mainstream versions of the European market Ford Focus, Bavarian tuner Loder1899 has now turned its attention to the sportiest Focus of them all (that is, until the introduction of the RS), the ST. Modifications to the sport hatch's exterior are minimal and include a front apron, carbon fiber rear diffuser and front grille as well a set of tasty 20-inch alloys that mimic the style of the standard wheels. The light bodykit is complemented by the lower suspension and the new sport exhaust system. -Continued
Under the hood, the Bavarian tuning firm's engineers reprogrammed the 2.5-liter turbocharged 5-cylinder engine's electronic control unit. Along with the addition of a sport catalyst and a sport air intake power is boosted from 225 to 270HP. The result is a 0 to 100 km/h (62mph) sprint time of 6,5 sec, or 0,3 sec faster than the factory model while top speed is up by 9 km/h to 250 km/h or 155mph.
