Default Spirit Blue ST

Morning guys, new to the forum. Bare with me as I'm copying my project over from other forums!

Picked this up on the 29th June after writing off my mk5 ZS (RIP) and it's safe to say I love it, already done nearly 1100 miles! It's a Spirit Blue ST-2, with style pack, EATC, Sony Dab radio and Nav. So comfortable, picks up well and handles like a dream. Anyway, plans and pics!

Summit 330mm 6 Pot big brake kit
Pro Alloy/Spec R/Peron Intercooler
Milltek Catback (done)
Peron Decat
ITG Induction Kit (done)
Meister-R coilovers
Braided brake lines
Ferodo DS2500 pads
New wheels again
Calipers painted either blue or black
Summit strut braces all round
Forge hard boost pipes
Silicone induction hose
Silicone Boost hoses
Black mist washer jets (done)
Cobb engine mount
Team Heko wind deflectors (done)
K&n panel filter (done)
Revo Stage 1 Remap (done)
Revo Stage 2 Remap
Mountune spoiler extensions
Twin RS style exhaust
Pumaspeed diffuser
Black Headlights (done)
Eibach redline springs (done)
Shortened gel number plates (done)
White led bulbs all round (done)
4300k HID's
Chrome indicator bulbs all round (done)
Spray grills gloss black (done)
Gloss black interior plastics (part done)

Then eventually the Peron 350bhp turbo kit



More pics to follow.

Took the ST to be protected for winter on Saturday, well happy with the result so went to grab a few pics afterwards. Apologies they are only iPhone quality, waiting for my mum to get a new camera so I can have her old one :ninja:

New shoes, OZ Superturismo, 17" 7J ET37 with 205/40/17 Conti Sport 5's
And on the dyno at RRS, ran 192bhp and 207lb-ft, so I guess this is where the figure chasing starts...

I then took a trip down to VHub in Tewkesbury to have the Revo Stage 1 map put onto the car. Graham was a great guy to deal with, had the car done in an hour and even knocked the price down a bit.

Can't stop smiling now, it's like a completely different car, so much more torque and pulls all the way to the redline, whereas the standard map the turbo runs out of puff at 5k. Would highly recommend to anyone, cannot wait for stage 2 now!

No pics but fitted an ITG induction kit next, boost noise!

Gloss black air vents fitted, as well as gloss black steering wheel surround. 4 Michelin Pilot Sport 3's fitted.

Recently had a Milltek 'race' catback fitted, video below.

And to bring me up to date, black headlights!

Friend of mine has a red mk1 with a 2.0 Zetec Turbo in, crazy fast, 250bhp!

Mines currently running about 215, should be about 230 within the next couple of months!

Yeah it surprises a few things! As standard it's quite tame but with the Revo map it really comes alive

That is lovely mate and such a fantastic colour!! I do love the Fezz ST.

I must be honest and say I do prefer the original wheels but that said, I do like it when someone does something different!!

Cheers mate, I should never have sold the original wheels, regretted it ever since. Hopefully be on a new set of wheels for Ford Fair

Much appreciated! I did really like it on the FRP's but they would've ripped the arches apart once lowered! As above new wheels again soon, fingers crossed!

What you going for?? They look mighty on mk1 frs wheels.

But please to god dont put Escort cossie rims on them. They look woeful on any fiesta beyond a mk5 in my opinion

All I shall say is that they're 5 spokes!

FRS wheels are too big imo. I don't know, I think a MK6 Fiesta sits really well on Cossie wheels, but agreed I don't think the Mk7/7.5 pulls it off
