Q. I know Mountune were involved with the RS500 program, but what parts do I currently have / need, to upgrade it further?
A. The power uplift that came with the RS500 from the factory was the power upgrade subsequently sold to standard RS in the form of the MP350 kit. The hardware found on the RS500 is identical to this, therefore you need the same additional hardware as stipulated below.
Q. How do I get an insurance quote on the MR375, will it be recognised by the ABI like previous Mountune kits?
A. MR kits aren't generally recognised by the ABI in the same way as MP kits are. Declaring your car as an RS500 plus MR375 parts should result in a more competitive quote.
Q. I've already modified my Focus RS500 - I'd really like the Mountune kit though, is this still possible?
A. Yes, and the parts supplied by Mountune are still covered by the standard 12-month, 12,000 mile warranty. However alternative hardware supplied on the vehicle may result in differing power outputs, performance and drivability as the MR375 has been calibrated for the specific hardware shown. MR375 will not be supplied if non-Mountune inlet, recirculating valve or airbox is fitted to the vehicle, due to the sensitivity of the calibration to this selection of hardware.
Q. Is it possible to purchase parts of the MR375 kit on their own?
A. Yes, the 3" EC downpipe, 200-cell sports cat, re-circulating valve and inlet plenum are available through the online store and also through all PRO dealers.

Upgrading your Focus RS500 with Mountune is easy and can be handled either directly with Mountune or through the Mountune PRO Ford dealer network.
MR375 upgrades require the PCM to be returned to Mountune for calibration update.
