Mountune was and is always known for reliable, factory approved upgrade solutions that bumped the power up a notch without loosing the waranty (at least with the lower tier packages). I'm sure that they could get at least the same power as REVO out of the engine but they're certainly aiming for a factory approved package with the M225 (even if it's currently not covered by waranty) so they won't go crazy with the mods. Waranty and proven reliability explains the higher price tag as well.

Ahh I was really hoping the Mountune kit would be warranty friendly... As it's not I'm not sure I'm gonna go for a remap, at least for the time being. Still unsure on how reliable this little 3 pot is gonna be so I want to play it safe as I don't have the money to be shelling out on new head gaskets etc...Also people thinking that the Mountune 'flash to stock' thing is a safe bet, you're still going to have their airbox installed, which I'm sure Ford will try to use against you if you need to get anything done on the warranty, so make sure you keep the original airbox and slap that on if you need to take it in... Thanks for the review Jonny, best person to do it really as you've had the Revo map for so long now! Maybe would have liked to see some 0-60 times in there. Any chance of a 0-60 time in your car without extra passengers and all the camera equipment? Bet that thing rips through first and second off a launch!

The car probably isn't as loud as the Mountune release video seeing as they have led people on to believe it was with a standard exhaust when you can clearly see later in the video, the same car is shown in a different location with more upgrades on it including an exhaust which has a bigger bore that stock and mudguards. All in development I'm sure but not available yet so not the true sound of the car with just the M225 pack.

R H ECU’s do have a counter on them for the number of times they have been modified.
