you dont run a 5th injector on cossie management so something's amiss there mate

do you have any more detail/specifics of the spec? perhaps some pictures? first we need to indentify exactly what it is you have and then we can advise who the best people are to take it to to get it set up properly.

shouldnt be too difficult to get it all sorted nomatter what the spec tho

in the meantime try and resist the urge to hold it flat out as you'll be gutted if it melts

It's not on fiesta management, the throttle body's different. Probably L1/L6.

P.S To the OP, no offence but it looks bodged to fuck.

turbo doc delivered me a starter motor for my s1 at near midnight some 10 years ago, allowing me to get to the 2 day trial for the job I'm still in.

Good man
