WoT aBoUt HeAdGaSkEt??
true
LOL
Should have bought a Toyota
hello mcm, one thing i notice you not done with any mcm car, why not twin turbo it? one small and one big/medium sized turbo have the small one spool up for launch, and bigger one for BIG SHOO SHOO SHOO POWAA
Hord Gersket?
I was surprised when you guys pulled out a COBB tuner. I thought as always it would’ve been something among the lines of “we called up our friends at Haltech and they made us this $2,000 Elite just for us.”
If that focus is like most new cars, the ecu controls everything, including the antitheft, shifting, awd, seat heaters and windows. Haltech can't do this yet.
most new cars have multiple ECU's that control different systems, such as a body control module for things like seat heaters, locks, radio etc. and then one for the engine, gearbox, airbags and so on.
Can this car please come back to the channel? It's very missed!!
I love the theme of making fun of "stages"
What stage tune should I put on my fully hectic audi a4 b7 2.0tfsi quattro bro... 🤣😂
@@michaelarmstrong7836 stage 8500
Ayy same I have a civic it’s on 3564457473743 stage
A whole extra Mira worth of power lol. Marty has created a NEW measure of output the RS makes like 10 Mira powers.
If we can measure horses in hands or space things in astronomical units and suns, we can measure cars in Miras.
You missed the correct tune. Lower on the list was the custom tune from Mountune .
That’s a decent power increase. It will be cool to see how it does with a big turbo. Thx guys.
That launch control nearly launched me out of my pants 😂
Because i love watching you guys so much i went out and bought a subaru. It has about 360 kangaroo power at the wheels.
flying munk89 in Australia we actually measure with drop bear power
DeathStroke but kw= kangaroo power
KangaWatts
Must really jump off the line
KillerWasps?
So no ones saying it. Guys. You installed the wrong tune. Stage 1 is an off the shelf map from Cobb. The tunes at the bottom of your map list is your mountune tune. You need that one for max fast. Go on your accessport, change map, go to the bottom of the list and find the correct map name, and go from there
Meandering through Midkemia lol wut..
Meandering through Midkemia this is literally the first time I’ve ever commented on a TH-cam vid. Sorry I own one and you don’t
Cobb maps are way underpowered too so they can sell protunes!
Glad other people noticed.. probs woulda made another 5-8kw lol
I noticed this too.
Love the vids, please don't ever stop being awesome! The interballs loves you guys!
9:31 "Yeah well you've got a Mira worth of power, really. Like, you've got a whole extra Mira worth of power right at the top."
Very nice, Martin. Daihatsu humor lol!
What has happened to the RS? Still waiting for the turbo
It’s back
My best guess is its going to join the current evo vs. golf battle in some way.
@@squamye5347 where did you hear this? i would love to see this get modded some more.
Yeah me too, i think they sold it
Ive waiting for a year, but didnt hear ir see the ford fucos rs until now
Shoutout to Cobb. They're 5 minutes from my house here in Austin Texas. Love my Accessport V3!
I think you were supposed to use the "mountune" tune on the access port and not stage 1.....
Mighty Car Mods. You guys are awesome. Started watching when I found the vid of the civic that you guys modded w/ the fake turbo bov and sound and I've been hooked since :) you guys have came a long way since then.
Such a nice video. Keep the good job @Warped Perception. Thanks for all the effort.
the reaction to when it takes off under launch control is priceless
Does anyone else see these two doing like a top gear show, I can imagine it and I would rather watch that than most of the car shows on TV at the minute
They're pretty much the top gear of AUS already
It's awesome to see modern cars on here. Can't wait to see what's next
The intro (heADgasKeT?) had me chuckling right away! Well done you guys for making my day and so many others people day again! Much love!
I saw a video where they split an RS engine and showed the thinness of material used in cylinder 2
I’m looking forward to double stage 5000 I got there once and went back in time. Unfortunately the car blew up and I got stuck.
Well done on getting on discovery channel guys
Super proud of you guys
I hope to meet you guys one day
This show went from taking broken cars and modding them until they're fast to taking fast cars and modding them until they're broken.
And I love every minute of it.
When do we get to witness said "stage 12" including the installation of the aforementioned "big turbo"?
Still waiting for the turbo!!!
How 2 young guys like this have so much knowledge about theory and practice about cars mod !!!!
I've learn a lot from both of you thank you very much! keep them coming!
I’m just here waiting for the 2sexy engine swap
Marty still has 2Sexy right?
Yes let's swap 2sexy's engine to the RS
CJ Mervyn I was thinking more 4G63T from an eclipse. Keep it FWD because drivetrain swaps are a nightmare. I reckon it’d wreck shit
2Sexy!!!
6A13TT swap it out of a VR4 Galant/Legnum, then do a twin Subaru TD04-16G conversion like we did, and its fucking bananas
And Rake Loves It 🤙🏼
SPROJO what happened to rake?
ALBOZ215 rake got fed up of loving it and starting hating it so he left 😂
ALBOZ215 not sure, can’t remember seeing him for a long time
Marcus 😅

Good to see you guys use Cobb, good set up! And good idea!!
I give you props for using your turn signal during launch control
Was the right tune installed? Looked like Mountune had their own map on the accessport on the bottom of the list for the car, but they installed an off the shelf map.
Missed it by that much they did...
Reppin the RackaRacka merch!
Makes me wonder, RackaRacka x Mcm? hahaha. RackaRacka is amazing!!
Haven’t see your channel for 5 years since leaving Australia. You guys still look great and haven’t change even a little. Still young lol.
Still familiar voice and pull my memory back. Great great great.
About time! I been waiting all week for this!!
When it is Midnight here on the West Coast USA, but need to watch new MCM episode.
Aaron Quick I feel you im on the east coast
You loaded the wrong tune! Mountune remap was at the bottom of that list below the one you chose
KingCat LXIX im sure they know what they are doing.
I saw this aswell... I really hope that they didnt overlook that :D
He most certainly did not load the mountune map.
He definitely loaded the wrong tune which is insanely dangerous. On Subarus that equals blown engines.
Yeah, he loaded the Stage 1 93octane tune. Nothing should happen unless they're using bad gas.
Hahaha Moog "Forget that just make your car go faster" 😂😂😂 love you guys! Keep up the great content!
Best car show in the world... seriously I love you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stage OVER 9000!!!!!!
Where’s the haltech guy?
That launch control sounded so good!!
I'm waiting on my bank to give me check to get a 2016 used RS. I'm excited to go get it. It has a few things added on by the previous owner. Drove it and fell in love with it the first mash and felt that boost kick in. It's insanely fast.
"you have a Mira worth of power" yeah that doesn't sound impressive hahahahahah thanks Moog for making me spit out my dinner with laughter
It looks like you guys loaded a Cobb OTS map and not the custom mountune map that was at the bottom.
and per COBBs stages, they should've loaded the Stage 3 map.
Yeah I thought they were goofing but they didn't even use their tune haha
@@alexaghyarian1989 They are only at Stage 2 for Cobb ... stage 2+ is with downpipe and stage 3 is turbo
That thing sounds gnarly 👍👍👍
Also fun fact. The motor in that car is an open deck derivative of the Volvo T5R motor.
I currently own an ST and I love that car, and these videos have just made me want to buy an RS even more. This is easily one of Ford's best cars ever built.
My local Ford dealer had one in late 2016, I decided 12k less for a brand new mustang GT out of the showroom was a better buy.
I guess AWD is expensive.
Are ST's non-turbo, etc?
HEadGaSKeT"!?"?

HEadGaSKeT? Guys please help... Where is this meme from? I can't stand that I don't know.

That RackaRacka shirt. Like if you're a racka fan
hell yeeee noticed that too!
RetardedCheeseWheel rackaracka
Never heard of her.
Hey there Billy...
Huh
You really got yourselves a time bomb with the RS Focus. :)
I am to scared to drive my 2012 C63 at that big number 🤣 I love how you say that; “by then things are just crazy...” So true! ❤️
The EJ25 in an STI is not open deck, although the NA ones probably are.
The EJ25 is semi closed deck, but it's not fully closed. th-cam.com/video/ZbhOfXQWcuk/w-d-xo.html
True. Good clarification
Luckily thats what a ej22t is for for only 1/10th the cost of fully closing an sti block
dyno mode sounds like a bit of a good way to cheat power numbers
inflate numbers because it doesn't count the parasitic lose of the awd system
Schwaglet it is. You're right
I agree but gives a base line at least for your mods. Useless for a fair comparison against car.
That's exactly what it is. Like vw emissions.
Its becuase the center diff overheats and esplodes when you try to do pulls on unlinked awd dynos. Most shops would drop the rear driveshaft
Another cracking videos MCM. I hope your back to the UK soon for a car meet!. I'd love to attend with my supra!
10:26 Good god I could feel that launch just by watching it.
I love you guys and I love this car build. Keep it up @MCM
Open deck is in loads of cars, the. names cars with known head gasket problems.
braydensdeals Focus RS
lol I know. Then immediately after they start talking about dropping in a bigger turbo. Shit the RS will crack the block between cylinders 1, 2 and 3, 4 even with the stock turbo. It's not the power that kills the block though, it's the torque. Once it goes over 400 ft lbs it's only a matter of time before you crack a cylinder wall or the block.
I really like you guys. U arent the boring reg mechanic. Yall are actually intertaining nd keep my intrest. My only question is can you work on mine ?
That New Zealand open deck bit cracked me up :')
It's midnight, I should start going home already...
*MCM video*
Ah well, what's another 30 min?
You flashed the wrong tune
great project chaps much love from liverpool UK
what a rocket!! hope too see this car go down the 1/4mile again to see what it can do
I want that car so bad
450bhp? As a senior citizen, I'm the only person in these comments who can use that car safely. You should ship it to me in SW England, thereby saving your own lives.
Hello again MCM (Marty and Moog), and once again I wake up to another CRAZY Mightycarmods video. Keep up the good work guys!!!
Is this a floating deck engine. I do understand the the sleeve. Or are you after steam cooled.
6:44 you i think you loaded the wrong tune. Looks like you loaded the off the self Cobb tune not the mountune under the valet mode
I think that montune one is for 93 gas in south africa not 98
420apache657 mountune is based on the US and I'm Australia they use a different system to measure octane. Our 93 is their 98
do you mean their 93 is our 98 no 93 gas in australia
Australian 98 is equivalent to the US 93.
that feeling when 350 horsepower from your 4-cylinder isn't enough
from 350 - 319
i thought that. 235kw is 315bhp
Marty is that a challenge I just heard at the end!?! I am a gramps owner (not super) and would love to see you crush the focus dreamers out there!
mcm: drives car once
mcm: big turbo
When is the fairladyZ coming??
Sorry, but.... NO before any mod's run? I mean before the filter, intercooler, etc for a mechanical base line - using the same wheels/tyres/pressures should negate their effect over the OEM nominal figures.
Seems there is an issue with overheating rear diff'assemblies under hard, sustained abuse - even on stock cars - and, as some parts of the country over there can hit 40+C with even higher track temp's, it may be a good idea to check out coolers for it.
Oh, the engine uses a weird-as(s) exhaust where the outer two ports run through the head and the centre pair are siamesed for a total of 3 outlets and that may be contributing to known problems with detonation damaged pistons with increased boost.
Great going guyz, my dream car.....🤗🤩😍
So if you can only dyno it using front wheel drive and it’s all wheel drive which looses power through the drive train then how much power does it actually make in normal driving modes.
Road to stage 12 💪
Can You Do Neon Kit
Brilliant vid guys, have you heared of the bluefin map?
I agree with Marty when he talks about the throttle and the turbos spooling up. That is why I love turbo engines so much on a mountain road, you need to not only prepare the car for braking and turning but also for accelerating. In an NA you just need to apply the throttle, in a turbo you need to spool-up the turbo (more often than not that involves accelerating while left-foot braking to hold speed) and let the turbo spool-up so when you need the boost, you have it already built up
Wrong tune lol , your custom tune is at the very bottom
Everyone is complaining about the head gasket but there is a bigger problem with the engine, on the third cylinder it can crack due to insufficient material thickness on one side, cracks start in one of the studs for the head of the engine. See how it develops in the future.
Tim Smits Cylinder 2 not 3
My apology, i know it's one of the 2 middle cylinders, so if u say nr 2 cylinder it will be the correct one. Thx for the update/correction.
I was wondering how you were gonna tune the factory ecu but you pulled out the Cobb APV3. I'm excited to see you guys going with the Cobb APV3 instead of a haltech ecu. I use the APV3 for my STI and it's bolt on mods and it's great to see you guys using it's potential for your Focus RS!
2:31 sums up one reason the past few years have been great. 271whp "That's decent power."
Aren’t the stock tires better than re003?
Ben Troxell they were flat already, too many skids.
Definitely, lol
Agreed. But sponsors, so yeah.
mich pss are not better than 003
Wh1rly Bird wrong.
Focus on the headgasket
From what I've heard the open deck isn't the source of the head gasket troubles, its something to do with restricted airflow on the exhaust side of the turbo causing enough back pressure to allow hot exhaust gas to get back into the cylinder during valve overlap which then causes knock (air in cylinder too hot during compression stroke causing fuel to auto ignite as soon as it is injected). Apparently the issue mainly seems to occur when the boost is raised too high with the stock turbo, with a bigger, smoother flowing turbo the problem seems not to occur
enjoyed that.. you guys do a great vid
so wait .... it will disable the rear drivetrain with the whole dyno mode on . Isn' that just to reduce powertrain losses and thus make the dyno output bigger ?
It probably would, although I think it's done so that a 2wd dyno can also be used.
It is done to prevent the AWD clutch from overheating in case there is a little speed difference between the front and back dyno rollers.
The rear wheels on RS are also overdriven (2% faster than the front, IIRC) in order to create the RWD characteristics. I'm sure this wouldn't be good on the dyno either.
Kinda what I was thinking 🤔
Ford RS 😎😍😍 nice vidéo
If your boot has a lid on it how do you get your foot in there ?
Hi Mighty Car Mods, I dought you'll read this but i have a 2000 ford ranger xlt 3.0l v6 and i wanted to know how to turbo charge it. There are no videos on how to install one because of its 3.0 displacement and i was wondering if you guys can help
Head stud install episode imminent.
hiblendmedia cracked cylinder 2 imminent.
turn up the boost on tay tay!!!
Clutch Kick Junkies did they ever get it back on the dyno?
they should because tay tay is the shit(the 180 not the swift)
Doesn't have her anymore i don't think
They got rid of it?
TelevisedChaos i think i heard it somewhere and i wouldnt think that they would let it pick up dust in a garage somewhere
Just traded my Hellcat challenger for a new Focus RS. Absolutely love this car! It’s a whole different kind of fun compared to the Hellcat. From 0-30 this thing rockets way quicker than the Hellcat, but after that, it isn’t a Hellcat, but it’s quick enough. Love it love it love it. Take a turn with so much confidence.
Lovin' the Rakka Rakka Ronald shirt! The RS is not bad either!!
The focus RS needs a Ryzen Thread Ripper. No clock, like over-clock
What if the Dyno mode is actually to pass an emissions test. Remember the Volkswagen diesels?
Pretty sure its to keep the RDU from overheating, it has problems on a road course, so I'm guessing it wouldn't love sitting on a dyno with very little air flow either.
Its not an awd dyno so it will fuck up the drive shaft
That is an awd dyno they're on, note the rollers in the back.
Stanley Zitello linked vs unlinked rollers would make a difference, though
Variable turbo foo.
Do they make a block cylinder brace or pin kit? To keep it from floating.
Awesome guys
