FOCUS RS MK2tuned for a healthy 400bhp by Pumabuild,
but having seen several big-power Syvecs-
equipped cars, he knew he wanted to go for
big power.
“I started the build in August 2017, the
day after Ford Fair, as I knew I didn’t have to
use the car until the following show season
began.” Having purchased a new daily driver,
he was free to go to town on the Focus.
Luke spent a lot of time researching the
best options for parts and with the help of
Alan at Pumabuild, who’d done a great job
of tuning and maintaining the car, he began
stockpiling a collection of go-faster goodies.
The idea was to get everything together, so
that it could all be installed in one hit, rather
than doing it in dribs and drabs.
The engine was fully upgraded with
forged rods and pistons to ensure that
this big-boosting RS delivers savage
performance, while maintaining full
reliability. A Precision 6466 turbo is the
centrepiece of the build, ably supported by
a titanium tubular exhaust manifold. A DevilDevelopments fuel system utilising 1000cc
injectors gets the go-fast juice in quick and
everything is expertly controlled by that
Syvecs ECU.
“Devil Developments have been a massive
help in the build. “I’m sure everyone knows
Lee is the wizard of Syvecs and one of the
best in the business for churning out big-
power fords,” enthuses Luke.
“I have three favourite parts of this car:
the Precision 6466 turbo teamed up with
the screamer pipe and the Syvecs ECU. The
sounds is absolutely incredible, however the
whole car has been built entirely to my taste
and I love every single part of it. There’s
definitely so much love for this car!”
Like the rest of this RS, the engine bay
gleams and Luke goes to a lot of effort to
ensure it remains that way. Open the bonnet
and you’re greeted by an Anembo plenum
and a 4in Syvecs intake pipe – both finished
in gold, which really sets it off. The engine
cover is also finished in gold carbon.
