hi all, a guy i work with has a new fiesta st there 150 bhp, he tells me that the engine is the same one as thay put in the st 170 focus ? but detuned is that correct? he says hes been to a few places about chipping it and getting it up to 170 bhp but thay have said it cant be done , i think it can and will give him stus number at m.s.d.
anybody now abit more about this engine im i right in saying its a duratec?

There's plenty of tuning bits coming out for the Fiesta ST in the VERY near future, some potentially very impressive kit.
Keep your eyes peeled on Performance Ford for all the latest info and product tests.

If it cant be chipped then that would be because Ford in thier wisdom have decided to put a new design of ecu in instead of the black oak ecu that is used in the *old st170* which can be blue finned.

The ST170 has what's badged as a Duratec on it but it's almost 100% identical to a 2.0 Zetec, cast iron block, alloy head etc. The 170 also uses a Black Oak ECU.
The Fiesta ST has a 'true' 2.0 all alloy Duratec in it. The Fiesta uses a Silveroak ECU and yes it is chippable with pretty decent gains

All alloy 2litre Duratecs, the REAL ones (ie not FRS/ST170s as they just rebadged Zetecs) like in the ST150, are superb engines with mad potential.
They have a 2.3 version too.
They the engines that are in lots of modern Mazdas too.
The Mazda MPS already uses the 2.3litre version of the Duratec with turbo and 4wd.
Dont take a genius to work out what engine and drivetrain will be used in any future 4wd turbo ford...

the mazda MPS is a nice car anyway so why bother with a ford

volvo engine bays are fooking HOOOOOGE though, straight 6 engine mounted transverse in there cars
gearbox's are fooking tiny though
