I have owned 76 different cars and trucks in my lifetime, and I'm 41 now, but my fastest built was my 1997 Honda Civic coupe (an EJ8). I built a fully forged LSVTEC (a B18B1 non-VTEC block with an all aftermarket JDM Civic Type-R head) with a modified Garrett GTS3582 turbo and a modified Integra GSR transmission. It made 709 wheel horsepower with an LSD. Best time in the quarter mile was 9.56 @ 155 MPH.
Back in my day when most of you were probably in liquid form 😂 we took the original base model fiesta mk1 popular plus and stuffed an overbored, cammed and carbed, ( early injection wasn't all that) , Orion gt lump into it, onto the standard 4speed 950 gear box, , capable of evading high speed persuit but they didn't have helicopter's then 😅
I understand how much effort goes into this sort of thing and appreciate this sort of build a lot, I have just done a fiesta st swap into a transit courier van
My 315hp S80 V8 can hit the 255 kmh limiter, my friends E63 AMG can go over 300, limiter removed, stock 525hp 6.2L NA V8. If the gear ratio let it, this should go over 300.
Yeah if the gear box allows it I imagine it’ll be more. My stage 3 fez did 160mph+ so would be interesting to see this. Really stable at that speed somehow. I had steelies on too 😂
I’ve got a Fezzi story. About 2005, Mate of mine who always had bonkers cars (he drives 600hp Evo 7 now). He brought a fully built mk4 with a 2.1 zetec turbo, Diesel final drive, Cream/baby blue retrim & painted in the Alfa light blue flip. It was a fucking animal, only wanted to go left on boost. Well, one night he took a chase, lost them but kept in it. Ended up vertical up a lamp post. He called us up for some help. We ended up pushing it off the lamp post & into the ditch, threw a load of branches over it to the police didn’t find it and recovered it properly the next day. Filth were none the wiser 😂
Just bought 300 bhp focus mk2 ST and just getting used to it after having a 530 bhp Vxr8. Really starting to warm to it. Not sure what relevance this comment has to this video but it’s New Year’s Eve so happy new year 🎉
Been in some metal cars but would love be in this little pocket rocket my mates mk2 escort rs turbo fiesta rs turbo wer 200bhp and they wer sketchy fell more safer im his 600bhp skyline lol
Bro, in the US I hope I could find a fiesta ST like that and beat it up to 507 hp like that one that one is awesome for four-cylinder man that’s pretty damn good our brother take care peace out my brother
UK is the mother for Ford 's enthusiasts in tuning and racing motorsport development and this car improves it with the better way!!! Happy new year from Greece!!!!
Love these kinds of builds. Can't count on manufacturers much to build cool stuff but a bit of lego work can go a long way. Good to learn about improvements on the stock motor. All the best to everyone for the new year 👍
So cool! One of dream builds is to swap a mk7 FiST with either a 2.0 or 2.3 ecoboost and convert it to AWD using the system from an ecosport. Glad to know the swap can be done!
Back in my day the ASTRA VANS were preferred to the 2door car for sleepers as they were already lighter in the back and the suspension was a bit stronger for obvious reasons, and you saved money, time, and the hassle of taking out the interior sound deadening etc
I've a TRS Stage 3 one with a S280 turbo. That's so much fun to drive. That said even that can be a handful if remotely wet. So god knows what this must be like 😂 A do love an absolute weapon of a fast ford🤘
the zetec conversion was called the ZVH. they used the rstrubo head and 1.8/2.0 zetec crankcase. i mate of mine did it back in the early 2000s to his fiesta supersport. what a weapon
What a fuckin banger to end the year Jamie!!! Been subbed for god knows how long and have watched you come up and can’t wait to see what next year has for you brother. Love from Milton Keynes
I have 500whp in my 2016 Focus ST (US) and its a bit rowdy at times..having that power in the Fiesta would just be down right nasty! Thats awesome! good build and i like that it looks like a stock Fiesta!
Awesome video as always Jamie. Do like seeing new things done with the fiesta platform. Owned mine for ten years now. Roughly 12-14k(that’s minimum labour cost tho) to create this..doesn’t seem too bad considering a built engine is 8-10k, then plus a s280 etc and you’re still stuck with the stock gearbox..then need larger injectors, HPFP upgrade to get close to this power.
Yep, the intro regarding ford and all full package in what your promoting. Cars and the evolution of engineering. Yo did you play Grandturimo, yep I'm dyslexic but that intro was top. The FF 2.3 rahhhh it needs a contender. Happy new year Yall
You can sleeve the 2.3l or use the 2l block and stroke it back to a 2.3l But yes generally the 2.3l has an issue with the block cracking between cylinders 2 and 3 because the material is very thin there
Thankyou to you both !!! Why can't all comments and conversations be like this on here ..... what actually causes the cracking on the 2.3 ?? People running Too much compression or .........
@@HG.MSport I have no information outside of the material being extremely thin in just that section of the block and it usually happens when you decide to run 450+hp. I think TunedByNishan mad a video on it or SpeedPerformance And I should correct myself from the previous comment I don't know if these newer 2.3ls have that same issue
@@HG.MSport Well, I know that the cylinder walls being too close together was a reason why the Volvo/Ford 5 cylinder suffer from cracks in the block when the boost is turned up. If Ford took inspiration from that engine, when developing the Ecoboost, it might be the same issue again. Sometimes I wonder whether manufacturers think about a potential "legendary status" of their engines, and decide "nahhh, long lasting engines aren't our thing".
❤❤😂😢😮😅😊😊😊😊😊 bro happy new year and that fiesta is bad ass. I have a Ford focus SE in my car cannot do that. It’s only 130 hp. I wish I had 500 like that fiesta that fiesta is awesome our brother take care next time you talk to ES motors tell Dougie Fresh from California said what’s up our homeboy take care.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU 🙏🏽🙌🏽 WISHING YOU ALL A PROSPEROUS 2025 💯 THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT IN 24.. 25 GUNA BE A MAZZZZAAA 🍻🥳
Same to you and your fam my G. Thank you for the content, was a beautiful year to remember 🎉🔥
Same to you and look forward to more monsters in 2025 👊
You are the best
To all the gassed gang jamie jamie and fam 👊 happy new year
All the best big Lad.🎉🎉🎉
Jamie, I love how you did the history on Cars in this video. You should do that more often.
Dude built a 507bhp festa and I was gonna complain about standard wheels lol al just stay quiet ..awesome build
Standard st wheels, not standard for that car 😅

Cool story bro
Proper decent build! I have a MK7 fiesta K20 with GTX3584 T51R running Haltech 1500 with Bosch DBW+74mm Bosch throttle body, AEM 400 fuel pump.

Sounds like a car battle 😀

What a pleasure to end the year with Jamie in a crazy pint sized Fast Ford! 💙 Happy new year everyone!
Please let AutoTopNL have a go on the Autobahn. I think this tiny tin can would get close to 300 km/h 😳

I recon it’ll be really close. My stage 3 fez did 160mph+ and it was stable at the speed with steelies on.
Crap channel. Who even watches AutoTopNL.
@RK-vw5wp I miss my little fiesta 😂 I had one very early 2014. Stage 2 and I remember eating everything on the road loved it lol

Lee & Jamie pushing the boundaries again
It's good to see the issues you've had with whom I thought
The 2 step beat on the outro is proper spicy man
Awesome motor again DD knocking it out the park again
Great video guys. Hopefully this vid puts to bed the rumours and whispers about devils being responsible for the Leon . Great build Lee and Jamie .
I can’t believe how nice it puts the power down 😮 what a build
Every year Jamie’s consistently giving us quality uk car content. Never gets boring !
Literally just finished the st build play list then this pops up. As a new fiesta st owner I can’t get enough st content
Had the XR2i as my first car. H29LEL. Loved that car.
Love the historical value intro. 👌 Happy New Year Jamie! Love ya bro! 🙏
Really enjoyed the different approach to the intro of this video with the little bit of history on fiestas.👏also, what a beast!!🔥
Great to see some proper development in the Mk7 Fiestas!
Good work! Definitely brings more to the platform.
I remember the torque steer in my series 1 escort turbo with 200 bhp, can’t imagine 500 bhp in a fiesta 😂
ive got a 300bhp mk2 astra gte..soon too be 400..cant beat the old skool tin cans with big horse power 😜
Been in some metal cars but would love be in this little pocket rocket my mates mk2 escort rs turbo fiesta rs turbo wer 200bhp and they wer sketchy fell more safer im his 600bhp skyline lol
Never owned but always loved the Astra Gte.
Had my st180 nearly 6 years running around 330bhp love it to bits
Imagine that 4wd,lovely build,
Have a happy new year Jamie. .
@markcozzie first thing I thought of. Nothing would come close of its size
Had mk8 Fez ST. Loved it then got a Focus ST after. More refined but not as much fun as the Fiesta. This looks an absolute blast!
What an intro!!!!! What a sick INTRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bro, in the US I hope I could find a fiesta ST like that and beat it up to 507 hp like that one that one is awesome for four-cylinder man that’s pretty damn good our brother take care peace out my brother
UK is the mother for Ford 's enthusiasts in tuning and racing motorsport development and this car improves it with the better way!!!
Happy new year from Greece!!!!
More of this content please mate. 🙏
much better than the dsg tat
First here. Awaiting comments about their ex employee. 😂
So is the ginger guy the one that fucked up the cupra then? Always thought he looked a bit like a smoker 🤭
lol did that Ben guy get the sack? 😂
ex employee?
@ the guy that messed up the Cupra used to be at Devil
@@vdubster so they sacked that Ben guy lol
Love these kinds of builds. Can't count on manufacturers much to build cool stuff but a bit of lego work can go a long way. Good to learn about improvements on the stock motor. All the best to everyone for the new year 👍
Happy new year Jamie hopefully it brings all you deserve ..brilliant content as always top man top channel big respect.

Im only down the road from devil development i got a mk2 stage 3 focus im looking to take in are they really that good 🤯🤯
Bruh, what way to end 2024 with my fav tuned hatchback 🎉 Happy new year!!
Defo keeping an close eye on these cars the one I have been waiting for 👌
My buddy has one cute lil Fiesta, nippy 2.0L Turbo! 🔥
Happy new year bro cant wait for 2025 videos from urself ❤
That fiesta on 🔥🔥
now thats a fiesty beasty, i have a broken red fiesta van, maybe i should do something spicy, awesome inspiration, awesome build
Back in my day the ASTRA VANS were preferred to the 2door car for sleepers as they were already lighter in the back and the suspension was a bit stronger for obvious reasons, and you saved money, time, and the hassle of taking out the interior sound deadening etc
Happy New Year , thanks for all the vids this year
Ford with a bigger boosted engine, is what it's all about, nice too see Devi developments on channel again. Happy New year all. 😎👊✌♥️
So, it was Jamie playing with Jamie's Ford Fiesta hahaha 😂 🤣 loved it
Absolute weapon that I love my stage 2 focus mk3 but that’s on another level up the fords
Just the smile and fun on your face says , it's moving
bring more fiesta st vids! give this man a spot in a OG race:D
Thanks for the NYE drop Jamie, Happy new year to you, looking forward to another great year!
Devil developments is top.
I love that it still looks standard 😅
Happy new year bro !
Wow man 😍 I’m in love lol 😂, my 340bhp x47r st is quick, this must be another level 👍
Happy new year. Love you're video's 🤗
Jamie was it incredible in that car 😮💪
I've a TRS Stage 3 one with a S280 turbo. That's so much fun to drive. That said even that can be a handful if remotely wet. So god knows what this must be like 😂
A do love an absolute weapon of a fast ford🤘
Proper pocket rocket! Reminds me of Chris S and his Clio….500bhp in a 172 🤣 nice content as always J 👍🏾
Happy new year brother keep up the top work
Love these videos. Greetings from norway
the zetec conversion was called the ZVH. they used the rstrubo head and 1.8/2.0 zetec crankcase. i mate of mine did it back in the early 2000s to his fiesta supersport. what a weapon
I almost thought Jezza clarkson was gunna make an appearance at the start very tg vibes,and that fiesta is a menace proper little hot hatch 💯
Get this car to Santa pod 👍🏻
This is awesome Jaime
All the best Jamie 👍
I love this!!!!!!! Wow what a monster
What a fuckin banger to end the year Jamie!!! Been subbed for god knows how long and have watched you come up and can’t wait to see what next year has for you brother. Love from Milton Keynes
Nice swap and practical 🔥👌
I had the rs fiesta and the pug 205😢wish I still had them now
Lovely conversation, must be a lot of fun in a small car like the fiesta.
Happy new year Jamie 🤪
I have 500whp in my 2016 Focus ST (US) and its a bit rowdy at times..having that power in the Fiesta would just be down right nasty! Thats awesome! good build and i like that it looks like a stock Fiesta!
Coming like the new top gear . Levels above the rest .
*_507bhp and OPEN DIFF fwd 😁 love it ❤_*
Seen this being built on there insta🔥 what a motor
Everyone loves a fast Ford! ❤
Thanks for all the entertainment this year bro! Here’s to 2025 and a Million subs 👊🏻
That is mad I’d love to create one of them the mid range on that engine is strong in a focus so must be savage in a fiesta
Good build that is super
This video was very well done 👌
Cool video ❤ happy new year brothz be lucky
Happy new year Jamie🎉
This is a great car. I bought my girl a 1.6 tdci zetec s and its a great little car. She wont let me swap it out for an st.
Another cool sleeper! I would love this yto go to work in! 😂
Awesome video as always Jamie.

With all the wet belt 1.0 failures droping one these in a spares or repairs shell makes so much sence.
Mint video Jamie, steering wheel only goes right tho 😂😂😂
Yep, the intro regarding ford and all full package in what your promoting. Cars and the evolution of engineering. Yo did you play Grandturimo, yep I'm dyslexic but that intro was top.
The FF 2.3 rahhhh it needs a contender.
Happy new year Yall
Exactly how I would drive it haha love it
You Brits so crazy , in positive way
I own an mk7 st and i think thats an amazing engine swap
happy new year jamie
This car is awesome but insane 🤯🤩
Devil developments? Didn't they mess up the cupra?
Imagine this if they can get the focus rs 4wd drivetrain in it this thing would be savage already is but just imagine.... Happy new year everyone 🎉
This would be crazy 4wd aswell 😳
Jamie being the bigger man again
Wow this was truly epic
Would the 2 liter not have a greater power potential, given that it's a closed deck block, compared to the 2.3 liter open deck?
You can sleeve the 2.3l or use the 2l block and stroke it back to a 2.3l
But yes generally the 2.3l has an issue with the block cracking between cylinders 2 and 3 because the material is very thin there
@@sk8s4aliving I heard, yes. I would probably prefer stroking a 2l block to 2.3l, assuming it only needs a crankshaft, pistons and rods.

Hi .. is devil developments not the company that didnt finish the seat cupra ?
thanks
With wings it can fly !!
Nope. It wasn’t a devils build
Devils didnt have the time so he sent it elsewhere which is when he got messed about …
I WANT THIS, NO, I NEED THIS!!!
Are you putting the guy from the seat cupra build in the dog cage in the back😂
