Iv just brought a st170 for 2k buzzing and wanted to know what would be the best mods I can do so I can break the 200bhp or is possible to fit a newer 225bhp St engine in to my 53 plate St

You will have to go throttle bodies if you want 200bhp... The newer ST engine will be a nightmare to make fit, you would be a lot better off using a mk1 Focus RS engine if you want turbo power
