XYZ Racing Racing Spec Coilovers — Ford FOCUS ST HATCHBACK (Modified Rear Integrated) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2019-2026

The MK4 Focus ST leaves the factory with Continuously Controlled Damping, an ECU-linked system that adjusts each corner in real time and, for anyone trying to set the car up for a circuit, is exactly what gets in the way. This Racing Spec coilover kit for the Ford Focus ST Hatchback (2019-2026) comes with the cancellation kit needed to remove that electronic dependency and hand full control back to a fixed, mechanically adjustable damper.

Racing Spec sits at the top of the XYZ Racing coilover range and is built for serious track and time-attack use rather than a fast-road compromise. On a front-driven, 2.3-litre EcoBoost car that puts real torque through the front axle, that distinction matters – this is a setup aimed at drivers chasing lap times, not ride comfort.

What this coilover does for your 2019-2026 Ford Focus ST Hatchback

Losing the factory CCD system and its software-defined damper curves means the Focus ST’s behaviour under load stops being decided by an algorithm and starts being decided by you. Independent height and damping adjustment lets you drop the centre of gravity and stiffen the platform to control the nose-dive and front-end load transfer that come with trail-braking a 2.3-litre turbo four into a corner. At the rear, the kit is built around the ST’s Integral Link independent suspension, so damper rates at the back can be matched to the front rather than fighting a factory tune that was never calibrated for slick or semi-slick tyres. The result is a car that changes direction with less roll and puts power down out of a corner with less of the torque steer that a stock Focus ST telegraphs through the wheel under hard acceleration.

About the Racing Spec coilover

Racing Spec dampers are built specifically for wheel-to-wheel and time-attack racing, and the base valving and spring rates in this kit are drawn from XYZ Racing’s own involvement in circuit racing, including WTCC-level competition, rather than generic road-car settings. Where a car has already had significant supporting modifications – wider tyres, aero, a stripped interior, or other changes that shift how load moves through the chassis – XYZ Racing can build a genuinely custom damper for that specific car, using details the owner supplies about the modifications fitted and the circuit it will run. For most Focus ST owners running Racing Spec as supplied, that means damper and spring rates developed against real lap data rather than estimated for a showroom-standard car. Construction follows XYZ Racing’s coilover format, with damping and ride height adjustment built into the unit rather than added as an aftermarket compromise. It’s a kit designed around one job: getting a heavily used road car or dedicated track car to behave predictably at the limit, session after session.

Fitment for the Ford Focus ST Hatchback (Modified Rr Integrated) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) (2019-2026)

This kit is specified for the Ford Focus ST Hatchback, chassis code FO29-C, covering the 2019-2026 model years fitted with the modified rear-integrated suspension mounting. The cancellation kit for electronic damping is required on any Focus ST built with the factory CCD adaptive damper system, since the standard electronics have no role once this coilover is fitted.
