According to Ford’s preliminary specs, the performance upgrades reduce the Focus ST’s 0-60mph (96 km/h) sprint by 0.6sec to 5.9sec, and the 0-100mph (160 km/h) time by 1.9sec to 14.1sec.
The optional performance pack will only be available at selected Ford dealers around the UK from Sept 2008 with retail prices set at £1,120 or $2,000 / €1,400 but you’ll have to pay extra for fitting. The upgrades carry a minimum of 12 months/12,000-mile dealer warranty up to a maximum of three years/36,000 miles and as expected, the upgrade kit does not affect the vehicle warranty in any way.
