don't think the injectors will supply the fuel for the power, but looks ok. this was from 2007

I think a little optimistic on the power but not to far off! The thing you need to make sure about for any high powered Fiesta is cooling! Take them out for a hard drive and if not set up right they can cook!

Listen to the engine on startup from cold too!
