Highly Modified ST

Ben Blackmar's Ford Focus ST225

For the week of 3rd July 2021 we have Ben Blackmar’s stunning 2006 Ford Focus ST225.

Ben has owned this wonderful car for 3 years, initially as a daily driver, however now it’s a weekend toy and with the specification it has, we don’t blame him at all!


Boasting a plentiful 225hp and 320nm torque from factory with its 2.5 litre 5 cylinder turbocharged engine with a 6 speed manual gearbox this car is an extremely desirable hot hatch for anyone wanting a unique sounding and very fast powerhouse!

Now on to the juicy modifications that make this car as mental as it is! The car benefits from the following ;

Block mod
Focus RS Clutch and Flywheel
Turbosmart turbo actuator and recirculating valve
Devil Developments live custom remap
Ram Air group A Induction kit
Airtec inlet plenum
RS Vac kit
Oversized Front mount intercooler
Upgraded cold side boost pipes
Braided brake lines all round
Cobra lowering springs
Upgraded Hard race rear anti roll bar
Team dynamics Equinox alloy wheels on Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres
Miltek ultimate exhaust system 3” down pipe
Maxton rear diffuser
Custom front splitter
Jaguar bonnet vents

All of these modifications tied together make the car an absolute animal on the road, as previously mentioned the car came out of the factory with 225hp and 320nm torque, however this beautiful machine is far from that, it now has 340hp and 570nm torque, quite an impressive increase if we do say so ourselves!

Ben has been with Pump99 right from the start and now it’s our turn to give back! We feel that we couldn’t think of a more fitting car for Spotlight Saturday!
