This is one serious piece of machinery mate 
I loved the fiesta but this is just totaly over the top, can you please do it in Orange camouflage not yellow, it has to be orange to stand out properly.
Also if you bring it to the U.K. can you get a passenger seat fitted as I would love a passenger ride in this with you at the wheel..
Awesome

Make sure you thoughly wash and scrub the crank webs well with parafin or solvent with a scotch brite pad
When they polish the journals the metal filings/ debris stick to the webs like glue but can come off if you rub it hard
If you dont give it a good scrub it could come off and cause exesive wear further down the line as the metal particles contimate the oil
Had to do that with mine, you will be amazed how much metal dust comes off with a good scrub

the ones that I'm using from piper are rated to 242 lbs, so even more than newman or dbilas, but stil they are not preventin valves from floating at more then 7000 rpm and 1,5 Bar of boost.

What can be so heabvy there? you have backhalved body, with no weight at the back, light weight wheels, plastic front and windows... strange... I guess MTX box is heavier, dry sump ads a bit of weight, charge cooler must be heavier than traditional IC, and the roll cage.
