I think the CAIS is included in what ever kit you buy, providing you are still standard

You can only go S3 from standard or if you already have S2, thus from S2 you buy the new Inlet, 60mm throttle body and map update, the info on this is on MT website inlet group buy offer from £949 - £1149, fitting extra.
So, add S2 £1800 and fitting to that for an idea

I really wanted to do Mountune but i didnt think i could do anything else if i every wanted to get more BHP. thats why i was going to buy parts and do it that way.




200bhp without internals is the most you can get from the engine. If you want to go beyond this it won't matter that you have an MT kit as you would be moving onto custom mapping to add an SC or internals etc. What will matter is you will already have high end components fitted ready for further state of tune. Imagine adding a jamsport SC and custom mapping to S3 and you will be at 250bhp, 2.5 SC and 300+.

Owww i understand, so really it possiable to go as far as your pocket is deep. I didnt know about superchargers, but ive just been reading about it now on Jamsport. much £££ needed though but worth it for the power im guessing.
Is it possiable to upgrade the SC or do you just pay full price for the next one replace the old ones?

Mountune dont do a supercharger for the , you have to go to Jamsport to get the kit fitted. Once you're hitting that kind of power you'll need to do other mods including new diff, clutch, brakes and gear box. The cost soon mounts up!

Yeah i knew the SC was from Jam. Jesus really i didnt know you could need all that. I think ill be very happy sticking to close to 200.
So could anyone help with a estimate of BHP with these items fitted.
K&N 57i,
Full milltek system (4-1manifold, flexi, sports cat, back cat)
Cosworth cams,
Cosworth inlet,
60mm Throttle body,
30mm lowering springs.
Cheers guys for the help haha hate to be a pain

Near 180 I would expect, but if you plan to stop there get a custom remap done and it will help alot! Not a pain mate

What else could you add to reach close to 200? Custom remap meaning moving all my componants around under the bonnet?

Noooo somewhere like jamsport can put your car on a rolling road and customise the ecu for performance, economy etc. You can gain a few extra bhp by doing this but it can be expensive so it's not really worth doing until you've finished modding unless you have deep pockets

Jamsport would map that at 197-199bhp those are all the parts you would need.

Several on here with SC's kaxe is running 299bhp and think Seedy is over 300bhp.
yes, you would have to sell your SC unit and buy the bigger one, there are other bits you can improve, ask those guys as there in the know.

Pretty much think you can get a 2.5litre conversion for the engine aswell

Yeah I got 199bhp but all 's are different!
I'm jealous of seedy. I want more power but my mrs would kill me if I spend anymore LOL
I have agreed when my car gets to 80k / 100k I'm getting engine internals ...until then!

i had the full milltek system on my ST, 4-1 manifold plus de-cat and what a noise! sounded awesome tearing along the road!
best thing to do if your not fussed about the standard system is to cut the standard system down as its all one piece and get a pipe reducer to fit the aftermarket system.
means you can fit the standard cat for MOT time, police will issue you with a ticket if they catch you running a de-cat, will more than likely make you get a garage to check its been chaged and stamp the ticket you get.

the system and K&N is a good start, plenty things you can do to mod the engine! its a strong reliable engine that fords lumped in it!

you could always get a mazda mps engine! positive there identical! plus if i remember right its a 2.3 turbo!
