Ford Focus 1.6 CDTI Stage 1 (109PS / 5-Speed Manual) - Reviews | EDC16C34

Elevate your 2011 Ford Focus 1.6 CDTI’s driving character with a finely tuned Stage 1 calibration that balances daily usability with a tangible performance uplift. The bespoke turbo boost curve delivers a rapid spool from just 1 500 RPM, all but eliminating lag and ensuring a crisp surge of torque exactly when you request it—perfect for smooth city traffic navigation and confident overtaking on the open road. Fuel injection quantity and timing maps have been meticulously rewritten to optimize spray patterns and combustion efficiency across the entire rev range, smoothing out transitions between gears and banishing flat spots. Torque and smoke limiters are carefully raised within safe OEM margins, unlocking approximately 25 Nm of additional mid-range pull without impacting emissions compliance under normal driving conditions.

Further refinements improve engine longevity and compliance: EGR flow parameters are recalibrated to minimize soot buildup in the intake tract, while DPF regeneration thresholds are extended to increase filter service intervals. Cold-start enrichment and idle stability maps are enhanced to guarantee smooth startups in varied temperatures and prevent stalls at idle. Gearbox adaptation tables for the 5-speed manual transmission are harmonized with the new torque curve, delivering crisp, precise shifts and reducing shift shock under load. All files are checksum-corrected for seamless flashing via CMD Flash or any bench/OBD tool compatible with Bosch EDC16C34 ECUs.
