try spraying water on the big fan at the front when you speed up, will prob help cool it better! :)

I tried and not helped....

I see the problem definitely as map problem - overboost problem.

seems you missed what I said before :-)

from previous posts:

...I have uprated IC (6x bigger the original...

...Size of IC is huge and it is alloy...

...The IC is not after-market - I wanted to say only it is not any known brand made for focus ST but it is universal IC.

Also I had the car measured on RR (315 HP/ 470NM) and the inlet temp was just almost same as ambient so it means that IC is working as it should...

anyway thanks for ur comments and if you have any other ideas pls shoot it ;-)

don't try mod c or b+ without a bigger ic, your engine will cut out more frequently, it will not perform that much better and the high inlet temp will strain the engine more than you might want
