When you revved it there was a little whistle at the end which means you need to replace the recirculation valve as its plastic and faulty, changed it on my mk2 rs and that whistle at the end will stop cheers steve😀
Car Focused same place but much further in. Easier to work with through the drivers side with wheel off. Some tuners and guys has perfected it but either or they still have to use make shift tools to reach it and undo the retaining bolts. It’s exactly the same cheap plastic rubbish used on the Mk3. The replacement is the same part number too.
Does your arm get tired whenever you’re holding the camera? And I’m not talking about the one that’s holding the camera. I’m talking about the free arm. You move that thing about and hold it out so much
Great car. Only 60 came to us in South Africa. Looks absolutely stunning in the Ultimate Green paint. Get yours nicely detailed. Check out Jim White from White Details.
Hello Gary. Car looks really good. Do you really love this car over the mk3? I know the mk2 is a 5 cylinder but I still prefer the mk3. I look forward the drive video. 🙂
mine had the group A filter which sucked like an industrial hoover and the mouse whistle was so loud and annoying so changed recirc valve and bought same v2 as you, mouse gone and much smoother power delivery on mp350. wheel spacers do the job but mind those kerbs lol. mines no garage queen and will drive her in the rain if i feel like going for a blast, even more fun in the cold air Gary, tons more character over the mk3 imo !
I love the 2010 RS, but as a daily driver I’d be too worried leaving it in its own. I have a 2010 XR5 better for a daily driver and no worries, but still would love the RS, love a black one but man they are rare.
It looks so much better mate simple little things make a huge difference! That fuse box cover was awful lol those Gel inlays are spot on i have green and black ones on mine 😁 are you going for the X4 intake to go with this one ? And the Mountune Plenum ? Keep up the good work Gary 👍🏼
Car Focused the plenum is very easy to fit mate you’ll be able to fit it no problem 😁 and yeah its the cold air intake bit attaches to the lower grille and the bottom of the airbox 👌🏼
I honestly think you spoiled it by removing the stripe and the honeycomb dark bits. The residue will be a nightmare to remove unless they've not been on long. I know making it your own is part of ownership but removing good mods defeats the object really. Lastly, the OEM mudflaps look miles better than the rally armour style!
gary mt8.......i hate you.....cause ive been watching your two mk2 rs vids, and im kmow looking at rs's again i have a mk8 fieast st3..its good but its no RS im know missing my RS i sold 1 year ago....... mk3 or mk2 thats my problem i have 10k + mk8 fiesta st3 to trade, im scared of buying mk2 because of age and scared of mk3 cause of mk3 engine issues with your mk2 will you be taken out after market warranty don't make us wait to long for that first drive vid simon
I’m only 13 and you would think that my dream car is a Lamborghini or something,but it’s not.its this beautiful Focus RS MK2 in Green.love these cars
Joe Garratt same lad 13 as well
Im living my dream i finally got my green rs last year and i love it lol
Good lad 👍🏻 my fav when i was your age was a escort cosworth 🙂
james phillips looks mint mate
mr Heisenberg I love them too
I do like the oem look on the outside and loving to mountune extras cheers Steve 😀👍
Just fitted the LED pulse indicators to my ST wing mirrors, they're a must. Only 25 notes too
That is one clean engine bay for an old car. I can't believe I call it old. To me, Mk2 RS is the Focus RS of Focus RS.
Looks great Gary. Looking forward to hearing it on the road.
With the stripes gone it looks much cleaner 👌
I looove this beautiful car😍😍😍
i'm so bloody jealous! LOL. nice new mods : )
Looks 10x better already!! Nice clean subtle oem mods👌I'd have to get the bonnet vents painted back to white though!
Just subscribed can’t wait to see what you do with this 👍👊
Looking good and sounding good Gary.

Steve BHP DEVON it’s a pain in the arse to get to too unlike the Mk3!

@@leekemp1180 I changed mine on my mk2, but I got the fpm375 kit on my mk3 and was fitted by ford cheers steve👍😀
Yeah, ideally you need it on a ramp to get to it👍
Defo gained yourself a new subscriber Great video lovely defo the next one for me after my ST :)
Nice ! ...looking forward to the next vid & hearing those 5 cylinders 👍
Some new number plates would look crisp and clean. Good video. 👌🏼
looking like a good project car.Weekend beast.
Stock looks.. Big power.. Perfect
Definitely approve of the stripe delete and fuse box cover replacement.. much better 👌🏼

8:19 8:21 the car whistles when you take your foot off the accelerator, why???
It’s the standard turbo recirc valve - I’ve since changed it to a Mountune one which has cured the whistle.
@@CarFocused ok i will change mine too, thanks
Should have done the turbo to crossover pipe get more turbo noise
I see you dont cover your number plate on YT. Do you not think this is risky for security?? Only asking because I'm paranoid lol.

Looking sweet mate 👌🤙
Looking a lot better

Nice video mate . I am thinking of buying a Mountune airbox too . What do you think ? Is it worth it? CheeRS
Nice work mate 👍
Lovely looking motor mate. Although I did like the chrome fuse box cover personal preference though
Nice mods Gary.You could try AD tar and glue remover to get that residue of the wing mirrors.Look forward to the next one 🏎💨💥💨
Car Focused Youur welcome mate 👍

Wheres the mk 3 gone? Is the mk 2 better? Cheers just subscribed. Cheers
it’s looks miles better than when it had the silly stripes I see Hendy performance still have your mk3
New sub
Love the mods esp the Mountune intake.
Worth getting a tripod? It would help with these sort of videos and also make it easier to do time-lapses.
You’re exhaust manifold bolts are loose buddy, get mountune to nip them up when they fit the turbo to crossover pipe 👍
Make your second mod a plenum, or its hello buckled bonnet. 👍
I love the 2010 RS, but as a daily driver I’d be too worried leaving it in its own. I have a 2010 XR5 better for a daily driver and no worries, but still would love the RS, love a black one but man they are rare.
Nice video 🙂
@@CarFocused no worries, love your videos :)
It will be nyce wenn you would do a comparison between the old RS and the new one, because you driven now bouth of them
@@CarFocused they both have that rs feel when you drive them cheers steve👍😀
Need to invest in a tri pod..

Ace mate 😎💎

Great looking car Gary, you'll never loose any money on it
They are a good investment future classic 😀👍
Next mod, 20mm spacers all round
Could get some gel plates
Sweet...👍🏻👌🏻
oooh, new intro....
Im so proud of you that you have now a old 5zyllinder Monster and no more this 4Zyllinder Eco Crapp
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Taridis or tar remover will get the glue off
Wish North America got these, id trade my mk3 in a hesrtbeat
Really suprised that no one in the comments have claimed the K&N Filter haha that he said hit me up for
