2013 Fiesta ST2 project
 
Right, picked up my new car a couple of weeks ago, so thought I'd get a project thread on the go.

I know these are a love/hate sort of thing, but I'm a huge fan. It's massively fun to drive and goes very well for what it is.

The spec is:

- ST2
- Molten Orange pearlescent paint
- Smoke Storm interior
- ST style pack (red calipers, Rado Grey alloys and illuminated ST scuff plates)
- EATC (climate control)
- Sony Navigation system with DAB and Sync
- Spare wheel

Plans are as follows:

- HID conversion - DONE
- LED number plate bulbs - DONE
- Blue tinted/Silvatec indicator bulbs - DONE
- Paint front lower grilles/diffuser gloss black
- FiestaSTOC stickers (internal to keep them subtle) - DONE
- K&N filter
- REVO Stg1 map
- New wheels (unsure what yet)
- Climair wind deflectors - DONE
- Eibachs
- Remove dealer stickers - DONE
- Plain registration plates to replace dealer plates - DONE

That's all I have planned for the minute, I'm sure that list will increase soon though!

And on to the pictures..

Booked in to have the Mountune MP215 package fitted on the 1st August. 215bhp and 320Nm. Should go quite nicely :D

kneller 08-08-2013 07:28 AM

Right, a couple of little updates for you.

Had the car RR'd a couple of weeks back. Put it back to completely standard, so that I'd have a base figure to work from.

Factory figures are: 197bhp (200ps) and 290Nm (214lbft).
My results: 204.6bhp (207ps) and 284Nm (209.7lbft).

Up on power, but slightly down on torque. It was a hot day though, so I reckon it would make the peak torque figure on a slightly cooler day.

I then took the car to Mountune HQ in Hutton, Essex to have the MP215 package fitted. This consists of a revised lower airbox with a secondary cold air feed, a K&N panel filter and a revised map.

This gives a book figure of 212bhp (215ps) and 320Nm (236lbft). I'm yet to have it dyno'd again, but when I do, I'll update on new power/torque figures.

The car now has the Airtec intercooler fitted back on, and is currently with BoostJunky (www.boostjunky.co.uk) for a full custom turbo-back exhaust. He will then be designing and building me a custom intercooler to replace the Airtec, but that won't be until after Ford Fair.

That's it pretty much up date until now, but I'll update once I have the car back from having the exhaust made (tomorrow)

jonfoc 08-08-2013 08:04 AM

It's getting some toys isn't it. Just been talking to Rich (boostjunky) he reckons the exhaust will be done today. I wonder if it will sound similar??!

kneller 08-08-2013 08:10 AM

Certainly is :D

That'd be good if it is done today, I'm buzzing to pick it up!

Looking at the system he's done for the mk2 RS, it looks VERY impressive!
