Well the FRP has those differences over a std Puma (as well as that porsche designed inlet manifold) and that reaches 155PS... on a good day.. with a tail wind. So 180 is hoping for quite a bit.

If you're trying to get ultimate power then the 1.7se engine isn't really the one for you. The nikasil linings are grumpy at the best of times in my experience and need the correct oil at all times. The 1.6 is a much stronger engine if you want to start going for big power and revs like slapping a turbo on it.

But then if you're robbing a Puma for it's 1.7 and putting it in a Fiesta then may hell have mercy on your soul
