COBB CARBON FIBER AIR SCOOP INSTALL! | FOCUS RS
I install a new piece of carbon fibre on my MK3 Ford Focus RS!
Specifically, it is the Cobb Redline Carbon Fiber Air Scoop!
A really beautiful mod to be installing, this is made from one single piece of 2x2 twill carbon that is of the highest quality. True motorsport grade materials and manufacturing process combined with well thought out engineering makes for a truly worthy upgrade for the Ford Focus RS!
The nature of the top quality carbon means that this is a super strong part but is also extremely light weight. This has the main benefit of allowing the re-use of factory mounting hardware in place of the factory mouth/scoop/opening as opposed to having to introduce new mounting hardware like nuts and bolts the way that the main competition does (the Velossa Tech Big Mouth which is 3D printed plastic). This makes for a simpler, quicker and easier install!
The benefit of adding an air scoop like this carbon example from Cobb is directing nice cold air directly into the air box to be used by the intake. The factory opening that exists here shows that the Ford engineers saw an opportunity for a cold air feed to be beneficial - on the other side it splits into two cold air feeds into the air box, one in the front and one in the bottom/side to give maximum coverage to the air filter. The downside is in the execution as the stock opening opens into a closed off cavity of the front bumper so the air being drawn in is essentially ambient air that isn't particularly cold.
The air scoop changed this in two ways. One is that, as the name of the mod suggests, it is scooping air as you drive along. So as you drive, it picks up air and this is forced/pushed into the air duct and into the air box rather than being drawn in, making it easier for the intake to access the cold air. Cold air being the second area of improvement - the opening is now open to actual cold air as opposed to the closed off cavity of the bumper!
The installation process is relatively simple. It is done with the front bumper removed - a process that is not hard once you know where all the screws and clips are located. I don't cover this process in this video but you can watch my intercooler install video if you need to see the detailed step by step bumper work here:
ua-cam.com/video/vJ_Bc9D5cjY/v-deo.html
The actual removal and install of the air scoop items is super easy and quick. The main area of difficulty / work that needs to be done is cutting a hole in the plastic shroud that the scoop need to pass through. Cobb have a cutting template for the MK3 Ford Focus ST but not one for the Focus RS. As you will see, this is a shame because I try to use the ST version but find that it is quite different to what is needed for the Focus RS so in the end I had to remove a bunch of extra material - I can see why the Velossa Tech Big Mouth install instructions just say to fully cut the whole section of shroud out! I wanted to keep the shroud in one piece though if possible, which I did still achieve after a lot of trial and error with the Dremel!
Other than that, the process was grand, and out the end I am happy with the results!
It is going to perform well and it does look super cool, albeit more stealth than the Velossa Tech -the Big Mouth has a colourful surround where the Cobb carbon air scoop is just carbon all the way which is of course black behind a black grille in a dark area - but I like the stealth look so all good with me!
Cobb say about the Redline Carbon Fiber Air Scoop:
Increase airflow to the intake of your Focus ST or RS with the COBB Redline Carbon Fiber Air Scoop! This piece channels air from the large grille opening directly into the factory snorkel feeding the stock airbox. Not only will this piece benefit the stock intake, but since both the COBB Cold Air Intake, and the COBB Redline Carbon Fiber Intake both use the lower portion of the stock airbox, it works great with those too!
An increased amount of cooler airflow is key in making the most efficient power out of your Focus ST or RS! Pulling in fresh air from the grill ensures that air entering into the intake system is as close to ambient as possible.

good job. still happy with the REVO wheels? at 10 kilo they are very tempting to buy for my RS from a performance enhancement perspective. They seem robust enough for all kind of roads.
Just received this kit. Also no installation guide included so thx for this video, it will help me allot!
I always follow you, why don't you make a video where you show only the best essential modifications you have made and tested, which really improved the car?
Do these speakers require a amplifier?
No, as the video shows, they are plug and play replacements
Nice to see one made in carbon vs the 3d printed ones. Real carbon is always stunning to look at 👌. I wish some more of the Cobb/U.S products suited the Euro built Fiesta ST.
Nice job adam mine was a nightmare 2 fit on my st did it with the bumper on wasn't easy at all but looks so cool😅
What happens when your driving against heavy rain can water go up and into the air box
Not likely, the distance it would have to travel against gravity is too far to worry about unless the rain is being blown by a hurricane or something
@@AdamRaineyTo be sure just avoid driving to close behind other cars in the spray, there are stories of engine damage with big snorkel like intakes.
@@dave130r4 I tend not to drive close to anyone where possible to avoid stone chips
First 😎
Would be keen to get these if they made a mk3.0 version? Would be nice to update my 2013 ST
If you pull the hard pipe up then press down again can you hear a little click again?
When I put mine on I found it easier to take mirror glass out then pop it back on when finished . Speeded the job up
Hi, iv been trying for these. Still, no joy when i contacted ab the link they sent the pins were in the middle and not on 2 side . Is it possible for you to send me a link for these in your video please. Thank you..
Other than the lack of the silicone coupler, how does this compare to the Dinan one?
I'm not familiar with it mate
Great video, is it still a good product?
Yes indeed, I have bought more since!
@@AdamRainey Thank you. Am I ok to use it even though my car isn't ceramic coated?
@@Drone626 yes
AWG stands for American Wire Gauge,
What’d you use to install the bushings?
I love the idea of using titanium bleed screws which are less likely to corrode. Does the Focus RS brake setup use M8 or M10 bleed nipple screws? Are the front and rear bleed nipple screws the same?
Would i see any benefit from using these on a standard RS? Not planning on getting it tuned anytime soon
i can do that on my ford puma st ? :D
Coming from a focus st and now own a rs I hate the gas tank size 320 mile range to 205 miles 😅and the 110 dollar oil changes due to the 5w-50 oil 😂
thanks for the instructions! Question: as you're not using the amp remote cable (blue), will the sub run all the time while ignition is on?
Exactly, yes indeed
Hi Adam… u inspired me to purchase these autobeam lights However… after my purchase.. installed them.. But having issues with indicators flashing super fast…. I do have a ghost immobilser fitted… once ghost code is entered. They start to flash fast Do u know of a solution at all?? Thanks in advance 👍🏻
Hi Martin, not an issue I've come across tbh. Your best bet is to contact autobeam directly to see if they can help. Cheers mate 🍻
@@AdamRainey Hi ya pal. Thanks for getting back to me….. have got in touch with Autobeam via Facebook messenger(rubbish) Not heard anything back as yet Also think one is faulty as sidelight doesn’t light up the full length :( I’m assuming it’s my ghost causing my issue. But thanks for all ya help Keep up the cracking videos I do watch ALL your content 💙
@@martinneal1909I wouldn't assume that your ghost is the issue, like I can't work out why that would do anything to your lights. Just keep bombarding the messenger until they respond
@@AdamRainey Hi Adam Plz may I ask what units u have in the front of yours?? Are they Autobeam highest resistance? They have got back to me saying it could be the resistance in the front indicators
@@martinneal1909 yea my front indicators are the high resistance autobeam and then headlights are autobeam performance led d3s. Currently stock h1 cornering bulb but that will change soon
Do you require a heat shield? The oem comes with one but it doesn’t install onto the mountune downpipe.
No but if I was to do the downpipe again, I would wrap it using funk motorsport titanium exhaust wrap
@@AdamRainey and what’s your reasoning for that may I ask?
After doing laps on the nurburgring, heat management became an important consideration for me for track use. Normal every day running it makes no difference
@@AdamRainey ah! Ok well I’m only really using it for daily and a few spirited runs. Guess I’ll leave it. Really don’t want to pull it off again as it was a PITA to install
Ficou top essas rodas , Queria saber se é 17 ou 18? E o pneu tbm
Would it work with the start/stop?
I don't think so, start stop is why the stock battery is so big so this battery would struggle even in optimal conditions
Hi, Could you provide me the direct link to purchase LED indicator light for Ford Focus 2009 just like in your video? The link you have posted is not working. The smoke look just like in the video, not the black cover Cheers
There's a newer version out, just search the website
Are you still on the 40% after all these years? If so have you ran into any issues?
I sure am still on 40% with zero issues and feels great
Adam could I have a Mountune breather plate with a radium catch can ? What Air oil separator do you recommend with a mountune breather plate ?
good video mate
Was going to order a set, Might wait for the RGB ones now.
I honestly cannot believe that every single part of anything to do with this engine requires some kind of soul draining single piece like the stupid ass wire clip
Yea, it does seem unnecessarily obtuse
Beautiful, champ.
I need these 😍
I bought some similar couple of years ago. They just didn’t work with the rest of my LEDs. Just thought they had something wrong with them. Wish these had been available at the time. They do look good. Only one issue in day light they don’t seem as bright as my current Autobeam bulbs. Maybe it was the video.
Another great video as usual Adam. They certainly give the RS a whole new look at the rear. I’ve swapped all my ST180’s bulbs to AB. They are very good quality and really really bright! Look forward to the next one.👍🏻
You wanna sell your RS tail lights?
They look so cool I've had mine about 14months still going ok not from AB I like the sounds of the changing colours like the mustang it's a shame AB haven't done anything about the day time running lights 2 make them change there pretty boring just white nice job again Adam 😀
Very nice and cool look.👍
E-Mark is an approval marking that indicates the product meets the requirements of ECE regulations. Headlights E-mark approved are legal in Europe union states. It is illegal if you sell or use a headlight without E-mark in Europe
Yep
Looks awesome M8, love the new look they give the car
Cheers Tom 🍻
I had those in cheap on my car, looked great but broke after a couple of months. Definetly giving the Autobeam once a shot!
I’d bet money they’re the same as the ones you had. Find if hard to believe a small UK based company has the manufacturing facility to produce these. It’ll be drop shipped. I’d love Autobeam to show us their production facilities
@@dillonpudge9002Absolutely, i have it in dark red, to be fair since 2018 and still holding but i will change to stock cuz no one sees me indicating 😅
They’re exactly the same set. Everyone bums autobeam too much, they’re awful imo
Love the uploads, keep them coming!
Cheers mate 🍻
First 😎
Have you had any problems with the rubber door seals coming loose.
Not on my car but on a relative's ST line one came loose so I just prepared the area and glued it back in place
Thanks great video iv been looking for this for a while iv looking on the website for these lights carnt see this type can you give me any details on this led bulb or a item no thanks.
Are these legal in the UK as I am presuming by your accent and vehicle reg that you are in Northern Ireland. I have had 15 mm spacers on an E46 M3 in Australia where it is illegal probably based on the 'piggy back' type that are pretty risky. I wrecked two wheels and did thousands of dollars of suspension and body damage when a 30 kg manhole flipped out of its hole and instantly deflated both tyres and the spacers were unaffected but I did take them off before the car was repaired under comprehensive insurance. I am moving back to the UK and would like to put these spacers on a mini clubman if legal or probably even if their not legal but a bit of a faf if you have to take them off for MOT's and inspections by the Rossers.
Yes indeed I am in Northern Ireland and yes indeed spacers are totally legal in the UK so when you get here you can fill your boots!
@@AdamRainey That's good to know, wish I had kept them if they are the same fitment as I sold them seperate to the car but I suppose they were a bit traumatised so best to start with a fresh set.
Hey Adam. Watched a few of your vids. Wonder if you can help. I have them show indicators. Comes with led connector but also a green thin cable. No instructions where it goes. Any tips, please?
Send me a DM on Instagram or Facebook so you can send pics that might help work it out
Hey Adam, do you know how to switch of the cold start catalyst heating?
I'm not sure how to do this, I would imagine it would have to be done in the ECU. Why would you want that though?
@@AdamRainey to get rid of that sound on every startup :p because the higher rpm gives a whistling sound from the intake :p
@@Daviej87 the solution to the whistling is a sound suppressor. Made by many different manufacturers, pretty inexpensive and sorts the issue right out
@@AdamRainey what do you mean, the whistling sound is coming from the engine bay, from the intake :p
does this work for Ford fiesta st 2018-2019 ?
Excellent video, thanks..😊
cheers :)
