So why would someone go for this over Mountune which seem to be "the guys" for Focus RS tuning?

Look at we have done as a company with the ecoboost platform, we are known far and wide for our ecoboost tunes and have constantly shown how impressive our tunes are! By the way have you seen the flex tune we offer with our fuel pump that only we do for the RS?

I don't have a Focus RS, but I can definitely concur how great Livernois Ecoboost tunes are. My Edge Sport is very happy! ;)

That is good to know Bob. I just picked up a new 2017 RS last weekend and its had the HG fix done already so the Livernois Ecoboost tunes are certainly something I will be looking at. Thanks.

What color is your RS?

Its Nitrous Blue quad-coat Bob. Never thought I would like this color until seeing it in person with the pearl finish and its awesome. The color of your Edge Sport is the tri-coat Platinum correct? If they put that color on the RS instead of plain white would have bought that.

Once I get the HG issue done, I plan on putting a little more back into mine. I have the Mountine upgrated BPV, catch cans and breather plate.

I also have the FP tune, the one that still carries a "warranty". I don't think it does anything for the car so I'm looking to go beyond it. Can you still tune the car even with this being done?

Yes, I have White Platinum. It's a pearl white. I do like it. But, the color I REALLY like is Nitrous Blue on your RS, or this blue that's coming with the 2019 Edge ST. If this color was available for the 2016 MY, I would have definitely chosen it.

That's Ford Performance's blue. They've never put it into production, but one single Fiesta ST made it out into the wild. I doubt we'll see it on this new Edge, but we shall see.

NB is a wild color....I love it. In the end I'm happy I chose SG for mine, but NB was a very close second...

Yes I really like the Pearl White Platinum. The first RS I looked at to buy was White and I thought it was the White Platinum. I would have bought it in that color if it was. I was looking more for the best deal on the RS over what color but when I saw the NB in person really liked the Pearl. I got a great deal on the my RS too.

I was on Ford's site now and for the 2019 Edge ST it does have the Performance Blue color listed along with White Platinum, Ruby Red, Black, Silver and Magnetic. Even though Ford did not up the performance too much on the Edge ST I do like the way it looks. I will be trading in my Edge in the next year or so but probably for a new F150 or maybe the new Ranger when it comes out.

We would be glad to help you out with that! Have you seen our new updated tune for the focus RS? If not here is a link to the other thread with the video embedded: https://www.svtperformance.com/forums/threads/new-focus-rs-tune.1153290/

Yes thanks. That video was the first thing I did see in this thread. Not exactly sure which way I am going yet with my RS since its only a week or two old. But I like what I am seeing with your updated tune on the Focus RS and have known CobraBob since I joined SVTP so I trust his opinions and reviews. When I get to that point will be in touch for more information. Thanks for the heads up.
