The package is priced at £1995 inc VAT (plus fitting) and it allows you to get impressive performance increases while still retaining your warranty.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.greenlightinsurance.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/mp350-300x199.jpg" alt="" title="mp350" width="300" height="199" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1064" />Mountune have now added the Focus RS MP350 Upgrade to their list of Ford-approved performance upgrade packages. </p>
<p>&#8220;The Kit:</p>
<p>The Mountune Performance MP350 conversion consists of five key components, all necessary to provide a genuine 350PS, 460Nm output.</p>
<p>A bespoke intercooler was designed to significantly reduce charge temperatures whilst maintaining the air-flow efficiency of the original system; this was subsequently packaged by Team RS and Mountune’s own engineers. Final manufacturing fell to Pro Alloy – a name famous for the highest quality aluminium fabrication, a quick glance reveals it’s an obvious case of aftermarket meets original equipment.</p>
<p>Allowing the engine to breathe more efficiently was paramount to the upgrade package. A high-flow exhaust downpipe takes care of this job post-turbo, whilst a re-designed airbox ensures the inlet is unrestricted under all conditions. The revised Mountune design provides around 60% more volume whilst retaining the standard air filter element – in turn ensuring that servicing procedures remain as per the standard car.</p>
<p>Unique to the Mountune package is also an uprated fuel delivery module. The standard FDM and injectors were originally designed for the 305PS base car. Raising the power output to 350PS required significant flow and pressure increases to maintain the same safe limits as found in the original Focus RS. Establishing these flow and pressure requirements for this target power output, whilst maintaining these limits allowed Mountune to design an uprated item that also reduced the injector duty-cycle.<br />
Changing the injectors alone was not a practical or safe way of dealing with the increased fuel system demands as the required fuel flow and pressure is not possible with just an injector change.</p>
<p>Finally, and critically, there is the calibration. Working alongside Ford’s TeamRS powertrain specialists allowed Mountune to access the car&#8217;s ECU in its entirety, and also meant that the development team could benefit from the base cars’ calibration team knowledge.</p>
<p>The Mountune Performance MP350 calibration for the Ford Focus RS is the only one able to be applied through the On-Board Diagnostic port using Ford’s ETIS system.</p>
<p>Performance data:</p>
<p>0-60mph: 5.4secs<br />
0-100mph: 12.2secs<br />
0-150mph: 35.0secs<br />
1/4 mile: 13.9sec @ 108mph<br />
V-MAX: 165mph&#8221;</p>
<p>The package is priced at £1995 inc VAT (plus fitting) and it allows you to get impressive performance increases while still retaining your warranty.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<ul>
<li>Mountune performance upgrade now available for new-shape Fiesta 1.6 Ti-VCT Zetec-S and Titanium models</li>
<li>1.6-litre Duratec Ti-VCT petrol engine is tuned to produce 140PS – 20 per cent increase</li>
<li>Priced at £1,299 plus fitting at specialist Ford dealers</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>BRENTWOOD, March 12, 2009</strong> – Performance upgrades for the latest Ford Fiesta 1.6-litre petrol-engined models have been developed by Mountune Performance and are offered through selected Ford dealers.</p>
<p>The Mountune Performance Upgrade for 1.6-litre versions of the new-look Fiesta Zetec-S and Titanium models costs £1,299 (plus fitting), and consists of a high-flow air induction system, a high performance exhaust including high-flow catalyst and tubular manifold, and re-calibration of Ford’s 1.6-litre Duratec Ti-VCT engine.</p>
<p>The result takes the target power output to 140PS at 6,750rpm and 170NM of torque at 4,250rpm, compared to 120PS and 152NM for the standard engine. As a result, 0-60mph acceleration time is reduced to 7.9 seconds from the standard engine&#8217;s 9.9 seconds.</p>
<p>The new dealer-fit Fiesta performance kit follows similar Mountune Performance Upgrades for the popular Focus ST and Fiesta ST models which were made available from the beginning of 2008.<br />
All kits are fully approved by Ford and have been tested and verified on a wide range of British roads as well as numerous laps of the famous Nürburgring circuit in Germany.</p>
<p>Developed by Mountune Performance in association with Ford Team RS, this upgrade package will only be available at selected specialist Ford dealers in Britain from March 2009. The upgrades carry a minimum of 12 months/12,000-mile dealer warranty and do not affect the original vehicle warranty.</p>
<p>Details of specialist dealers offering the upgrade package can be found at <a href="http://www.mountuneperformance.com" target="_blank">www.mountuneperformance.com</a></p>
