Put a C20LET and an F28 gearbox in. Reliable and a fraction of the cost!

That's my mate wullies carlo. It's fuckin rapid. He's still on standard internals though. It's been goin for about a year being driven very hard every day and hasn't missed a beat. You can buy an ST for 4500, the kit for 4000 and you've got a 300bhp modern fiesta for very cheap!

Scott how dont you just put a focus rs engine in a fiesta st then chip it with manifold & decat to 300 bho easy. That would be my plan my focus rs goes really well with the above would be even better in a fiesta

They pop up on ebay now n then & breakers but im sure one would pop up you work at the right place, I seen one years ago at crail with a focus rs engine it was rough bu went well , that way you dont need to do too much to it to get the power you want & there are loads of goodies off the shelf for that engine. it would be prob cheaper to buy a focus rs engine ect than a kit & inlet from jamsport.Plus you could sell your engine ect from the fiesta. makes sense

Yeah matt the kit is from jamie, could have been the way it was used he just came into work one day saying the fiesta was smoking & when i heard it i knew straight away. No4 no compression & oil on plug. Its still under warranty obviously the kit voids it tho.Lad's only had it 5 weeks. Welcome to fast fords lol

Will do thanks mate the lad that ownes it is in his last year as a tech at my work bmw dealership so the ford thing is new to him. Only whing that worries me is how it happened dont want a splitting new engine & for that to happen again the car did get a bit of a sore time & hasnt done more than 40k possibly 1k with the kit on it if that,i would want it checked after its repaired to make sure its sound.
