Next Phase - Intercooler, Exhaust, RARB, Eibach Springs, and Torque Mount

Next up was to get the car up to a "Stage 3" standard before mapping.

I got the AutoSpecialists Gen3 Intercooler, I was one of the first batch of 5 available, and it was very easy to DIY fit.

Then I purchased the new (at the time) DreamScience full exhaust with 3" downpipe, 100 cell race cat, and 3" cat back.

Roughly the same time saw a second hand Profile 25mm adjustable Rear Anti-Roll Bar. There were limited numbers of these produced and even now in 2014 these are still deemed the best RARB available for the Focus ST. As seen below, this came with upgraded Powerflex polybushes.

The Eibach pro springs were fitted at roughly the same time. These lower the car by 20mm/30mm front/rear. Handling is much improved with these springs.

I also took part in a group buy for one of the first Vibra-Tecknics lower gearbox mounts. This was again an easy DIY fit.
