I feel like I do need to start work on the exterior soon as it’s still looking stock from the outside. I’ve got something lined up which should be pretty cool 👌
Fair play for being brave enough to do the software yourself, not sure I’d have the balls!! Stage 1 on the MK8’s go up 50bhp, can only imagine what that change is like!
It's surprising how much of a difference a simple stage one remap can change the feeling and response to a car definitely worth doing by a reputable remapping company
Looking at doing VUDU stage 1 on mine so thank you for the video, just seen the sunstrip bit at the start! I always use soapy water so I have more play to position the sunstrip and once it's inplace and all trimmed you can push out the air bubbles with a credit card or what not, then when the soapy water evaporates it sticks to the window 👍 keep up with the content man
was that the pevensey marshes road i saw? if so we need to collab , also its funny people quite often think a 25bhp upgrade isnt much but its also the torque which make its a completely different car
When you buy the device will it come with them maps Or will it be buy the device then have to buy additional tuning maps like stage 2 and pops and bangs ?
To let you all know that my ST Eco Booster 1.5 3 cylinders had an engine issue seven months after remap (Celtic Tuning in Cornwall), my valve stem had oil leaking in to the combustion chamber and produce blue smoke out of the exhaust at 67,000 miles. It sucks! I loved the big power on small engine, but it doesn't look good. Think of rebuilt and soon be sold. Disappointment.
Hi mate do these work on other cars or just specifically for fords? Haven’t finished the video yet but thought I’d ask just incase you don’t mention in the video 😂
@@JoshBatesYT I had a 2017 plate focus st-2 with 247BHP. I got it when it was 15 months old with 5,000 miles on it. In 2019 I proceeded to remap it to Stage 1, which took it to around 270 Bhp. In early 2022 the engine went "bang"...... dead as a dodo with a big hole in the top of the engine block and most of the parts missing. Replacement (Used) engine was around £3,500, plus labour of around £1,500-£1,800 looking at £5k for a used engine. A new engine was £5k+ plus labour so would have been around £6,500. The car was worth between £10k - £11k, so didn't bother. Sold the car to copart for £4,000 and used a stop gap 2004 Nissan X trail for about 10 months til I got my BMW. Personally I wouldn't remap a car again. I have a BMW now which gives more remap headway (BMW engines remap with more potential than Ford engines for instance) but I still won't be remapping it. I could get my car to near enough akin to a BMW M3/M4 with a remap but won't be doing it after last time.
sorry did you just say spending extra money on 99 is wrong ?? man your lost lol. your car would absolutely fall in love with you if you put better fuel in honestly. Shell vpower or momentum is best
Completely agree with this. 99 Ron fuel is better in every aspect especially long term, especially if it’s tuned. For a few extra pennies a litre I think it’s a no brainer for a tuned car
hello mate just orderd that for my fiesta st3 how long did it take it to come and how long did it take for them to send your through the stage 1 file from when you ordered the stage 1 home tuning cheers
Let me know what Modifications you want to see next with the ST!!!
That car is INSANELY QUICK! Next mod is front splitter and new diffuser and maybe lower suspension! Great vid Josh mate!!

A Renault badge on the front? Just don't be surprised when your car's electronics fail.
Thought of changing to black rims
Is that a reverse mullet? 🤘
😭😭😭😭😭
It’s a lama haircut
Just getting one lof these for my daily so will be on my channel soon which has made me glad to find your channel to give me mod ideas!
Fair play for being brave enough to do the software yourself, not sure I’d have the balls!! Stage 1 on the MK8’s go up 50bhp, can only imagine what that change is like!
Yeah I’m very pleased with the results
Stage 1 on the MK8 is nuts. I would highly recommend it.
These mk7.5 st run so much better on the 99ron bro. I owned one for 7 years and now have the mk8 st3 and the stage 1 on the mk8 is great too.

Hi Josh amazing Video always cant wait for more content 😊
Thank you!!!

Appreciate that mate and yeah I reckon I’ll get someone to do my sunstrip next time 😂
Im having the same problem with it not reading now i also check the obd but it stil not working 🤯
was that the pevensey marshes road i saw? if so we need to collab , also its funny people quite often think a 25bhp upgrade isnt much but its also the torque which make its a completely different car
It was pevensey marshes and yeah made a bigger difference than I expected.
When you buy the device will it come with them maps
Or will it be buy the device then have to buy additional tuning maps like stage 2 and pops and bangs ?
You buy the maps separately
did you add on the supporting hardware option I don't know if I need to or not
Stage 3 is mental bro you gotta do it
That’s the plan
How do you download and fill in the request form?
That’s seems very fun!
Did you notice more under steer ?
No not understeer but a bit more torque steer

How much extra is insurance when stage 1?
Most people don’t tell them to be honest
how long did you have to wait for the file to come back?
Only a day or two
bro you should def put the 98 octane tune on it its mad, i also tought it was absolutley dumb but it really isnt
How much it all cost for the induction kit your exhaust and stage 1??
Induction was like £200 exhaust £600 stage 1 £300 but I’ve had discounts from companies so it was cheaper
Okay, you’ve convinced me to go and get that remap 😅
Do itttt 😂😂!!!!
I think the vudu sticker underneath the st badge would look cool
I wouldn't, looks cheap and tacky. Personally the only one I think looks decent is the Mountune badge.
What's it like to insure???
Honestly not to bad
Lo tienes con turbo?
Yes
does AET ship to the US?
Hi mate do these work on other cars or just specifically for fords? Haven’t finished the video yet but thought I’d ask just incase you don’t mention in the video 😂
They work on almost anything I think
Alright sweet I’ve just emailed them to ask hopefully they do
LSD with weight reduction. Maybe go with smaller diameter rims for more acceleration.
Dont make the mistake of chasing power as many people do as in the end u will regret it stg 1 shoild be ok and shuldnt effect engine reliability
Nah I’ve gotta keep upping it. I may regret it if it goes bang but I’ll have to deal with that 😂

Just put a deposit on a 2017 fiesta st, so happy 😅
how many miles does it have? They are mega cars
Need to position yourself properly in the seat your neck and top half of back needs to be touching the seat for support 👌
Yeah I do have a strange driving position.

@@JoshBatesYT cheers how did you get the stage 1 file did you have to send your stock file to them or somthing
@@benjaminpeters4360 yeah I sent off my stock file and they sent back a stage 1
@@JoshBatesYT cheers mate what email did you send your stock map on cause I don’t want to send the map to there wrong email
You’ll know when you scan the qr code the send
My ST came with Mountune MP215. I want to stage 2 it but not sure where to go. Very tight on money
