Yep correct, if I said other wise I was wrong my bad. The top-spec ST-3 comes with Sat Nav, automatic lights, wipers and dipping rear-view mirror, cruise control, climate control as well as keyless entry and ignition.

It’s depends how mad you want to go with it and how much you want to spend. It’s very stout so until you start getting near or pushing at or around 300bhp you shouldn’t need to worry about it.

I’m not certain but heard the same rumours, whatever way you look at it I believe the pistons and con rods and both good for around 350-400bhp if the right timing, cooling and fueling is used so it’s a stout motor that’s for sure. At around 350bhp+ at least a block mod (let me know if you don’t know what this is) is worthwhile and beyond that it’s worth getting a higher grade forge internal build. Depending on what your building for 350bhp is a great area of power to be at imo as the power to weight ratio is awesome. Although these are very decent in a straight line I still feel they shine more on a circuit than a drag strip etc in a straight line.

I ran stock tyre sizes, the FST seems to be a nightmare once you lower it and you run spacers etc for BBK etc, we tried running a 215/40 but it would rub a lot and would cause pretty nasty rips in the tyres and got a bit dangerous. We even did have some work done to the inside arches, I found even with stock size tyres we needed to do that for heavy track work on high compression corners, lumps and bumps.
Yeah I’m hearing at around this you’ll be at about 83-84% duty cycle so about as high as you’ll get with a good pump fuel, yep beyond that pump and injectors are needed. It’s kind of why I’d say this is around a sweet spot for the ST beyond this it’s so much more money that’s needed to be invested

mine drives so much better on AP Racing coilovers! im getting a big turbo soon too running around 240 atm but i have seen turbo technics s280? so idk :/
I never had coilovers but wish I did, I hear great things about the AP’s for the money too ❤️ I loved ours when it was 248bhp it was a real sweet spot imho but I would say with 350bhp it was at times almost too much for the wheelbase and FWD, I did however drive a load of 300bhp cars and they felt great that would be my advice. The s280 is a great turbo but I feel it suits a tune with circa 300-330bhp max not the full 350bhp it can run. Better for the motor too unless it’s built motor 🙌
What turbo and tuning module/tuning out of interest? I know of 3-4 friends now all with 330-350bhp and no trouble yet, overall they seem super stout but it only takes some poor software and some overly fruity pop and bang programming etc to cause issues. That’s why I went Revo, not saying they can go wrong but just know the time they spend on R&D etc before they bring a product to market
Peak Performance Reviews s242 revo , common fault in block between cylinders 3-4, it’s going to happen just when that’s the thing, did me a favour in the end as got me into something that I wanted to do and build a club sport e92 ring car
Scott adcock ah yes hence the block mods that can be done, I’m surprised at only circa 300bhp you would have a problem though. How did it go bang out of interest? Any problems with it before that? With heat? Oil? Any signs? What was the mileage?
Scott adcock we all going strong this far bit it’s certainly up at the upper limits. I don’t blame you the FST isn’t the only car I have and will have either. My 94 Supra with 900bhp is in and on another league to this so this is never something I would push beyond this anyway. Have some other cars and projects on the go too but this kind of area and build is a sweet spot for the car imo. You in Germany or do you go over often? Do you do much track work in it where you are?
Peak Performance Reviews no signs just a lot of smoke obviously as oil mixed in pistons, it was used hard , over 2000 miles of lapping ring plus Hard laps of Spa, also had to fit 2x catch cans as due to very high speed cornering and jumps around ring oil would get flung into top of pistons , and revo air box down to turbo , gargled like hell till I got home to clean all pipes out, there not made for going under bridge down to tiergarten at 150
Hello, there is a lightweight Flywheel on there I did forget to say that I think actually but not the Manifold. I have however since sold my car but absolutely loved owning it. Do you have an ST too?
@@PeakPerformanceReviews Hi, thanks for getting back. Really nice build you had. I do have stage 2 mountune. No BBK but EBC yellow and lines and eibach springs. Thinking about big turbo now, but also think it might ruin the torque characteristics for the city? By the way, if you have not seen it, I recommend the EBC ultimate fiesta build on youtube (bigger injectors and cams, etc. - 402bhp) Out of curiosity, what are you going to get now for a ride? Thanks. BTW does lighter flywheel make sens e on stage 2 with stock clutch (getting kind of tired btw)? Thx
Sounds awesome, if I’m totally honest I liked my ST at Stage 2 more than I 4 I feel that circa 230-250bhp range is more suited to the car and it’s brilliant. Awesome more worth perfecting what you have. I always had lightweight flywheels on all cars I owned, it’ll always improve engine response and make the car a tiny bit quicker in every gear, very marginal but you’ll notice it. Yes I do watch the EBC ultimate vids and know the guys at EBC very well and we’ll be doing something with them all going well at a later date with other cars etc. I now have a Honda Civic Type R (FK8) Facelifted new version and it’s amazing. I always knew it would take a seriously good car for me to not regret selling the ST, thankfully it’s amazing. Please stick around and subscribe as it’ll be great to have more people like you on here! Thank you so so much for watching! How long have you had the ST for? Are you based in England?
@@PeakPerformanceReviews Appreciate the feedback! Civic type R, I get it ;)... I think you are right about stage 2. What kind of mods would you suggest to slightly improve things besides flywheel? I had the ST for almost 3 years. For sure will follow you guys and the folks at EBC do impressive stuff. I am actually in Luxembourg.
Thanks fella, I love it too not everyone does but I’d say 75-85% of people do so I’m super happy, makes a change from the norm too. Yeah I bet that’ll be hard for sure, please stick around and subscribe if you don’t already we need more people like you around 👍👍
@@revanvonheaven8270 of course depends where you are in the world and how old you are and if you have a fresh license etc, overall they are a reasonably decent car insurance wise to insure I found 🙌
Don't think about prices just pretend that it's ice cream then it's all good lol I put a load of stuff together for mine 3500later I wasn't even finished Bits for mine not to easy to get but I found some good stuff save some money maybe a intercooler next year it's a direct fit rather than messing around cutting pipes to fit 😎 The reason I am sticking with this is cos I like unique I don't think you'll find another one 🤔
Yeah I know it’s a common upgrade. Less laggy and more responsive no doubt too, just won’t make those bigger peak number. That being said it’ll suit the FST nicely if say. Yet to drive one with the ST200 turbo myself.
Stage 4 Revo turbo, it made 347bhp Reliable I guess depends on how you want to define it I guess. I look after my cars, lots of servicing, triple ester race engine oil etc etc 2 years and about 25000 mile at this power with about 20 track days too of which were full days at Nurburgring and Spa. I’d say that’s pretty reliable, stick block too with no block mod 👍💪
Miller’s CFS, it’s an ester based engine oil, I use it in every single one of my cars, not a crazy deal more expensive than any good oil but comes with huge benefits. You can even net some small gains in hp and torque with it too (very marginal) but the reliably benefits are the main reason I use it 🙌❤️

@@jakubm2347 why thank you I agree ❤️🙌 thanks for watching and for the kind comment …. Well for making me feel young still…. Which tbh I do feel young as I am really …. Well within reason haha
I don’t think it is …. Well at least on another search it appears they are 240whp which is about 276bhp-300bhp ish. Don’t get me wrong loads of manufacturers take on what makes a car stage 1/2/3/4 etc can and is sometimes very different. Staging mods is a guide anyway, some people hate the idea that some people use stages to guide what typical mods are on a car and/or power. It’s not to say a stage 3 turbo car couldn’t make 350bhp on the right dyno. I’m not saying your lying either or that I’m trying to be funny. Mean no offence in what I’m saying. Thanks for watching if you did? Do you have a FST?
Thanks fella I appreciate it. I’d be interested how you do it for less? Here’s our list. EBC Apollo Balance BBK+ Pagid RS29-£1500 Intercooler £600 Better cooler plugs - £50 Revo Stage 4 turbo with map+SPS - £3800 Suspension+spacers - £400 Intake £300 decat/down pipe- £160 Cat back exhaust - £500 New exhaust fire ring - £10 Solid motor mount - £170 Lower engine stabiliser - £40 TTV Clutch &flywheel - £1250 Blow of valve -£150 We’ve got even more than the above but imo everything bar poss the clutch and flywheel is needed (imo it is though if you use it like we have) Imo it’s better to be super honest, you could do it for less but .... heck knows how .... I suppose not doing it right but yeah can be done The above without clutch and flywheel = £7680 With clutch and flywheel = £8930 Power isn’t cheap. I wouldn’t go to 330-350bhp range without the minimum these mods. Although at around this I’d do the block mod too if I ever did this again, guessing that’ll be circa £500 at a guess. Forge internals with block mod would be the right way to go and that would add another £3000-5000 depending on how mad you go. Thanks for watching bud appreciate it. Again though 100% I’m all for hearing how you do it for much less than that safely.
Illuminated tread strips & red calipers are part of the ST Style pack (as were darker grey alloys). Was an option on all ST trim levels.
Yep correct, if I said other wise I was wrong my bad.

You in Germany or do you go over often? Do you do much track work in it where you are?
Peak Performance Reviews no signs just a lot of smoke obviously as oil mixed in pistons, it was used hard , over 2000 miles of lapping ring plus Hard laps of Spa, also had to fit 2x catch cans as due to very high speed cornering and jumps around ring oil would get flung into top of pistons , and revo air box down to turbo , gargled like hell till I got home to clean all pipes out, there not made for going under bridge down to tiergarten at 150
Have you thought of getting a lighter flywheel? Also a ported manifold?
Hello, there is a lightweight Flywheel on there I did forget to say that I think actually but not the Manifold. I have however since sold my car but absolutely loved owning it. Do you have an ST too?
@@PeakPerformanceReviews Hi, thanks for getting back. Really nice build you had. I do have stage 2 mountune. No BBK but EBC yellow and lines and eibach springs. Thinking about big turbo now, but also think it might ruin the torque characteristics for the city? By the way, if you have not seen it, I recommend the EBC ultimate fiesta build on youtube (bigger injectors and cams, etc. - 402bhp) Out of curiosity, what are you going to get now for a ride? Thanks. BTW does lighter flywheel make sens
e on stage 2 with stock clutch (getting kind of tired btw)? Thx
Sounds awesome, if I’m totally honest I liked my ST at Stage 2 more than I 4 I feel that circa 230-250bhp range is more suited to the car and it’s brilliant. Awesome more worth perfecting what you have. I always had lightweight flywheels on all cars I owned, it’ll always improve engine response and make the car a tiny bit quicker in every gear, very marginal but you’ll notice it. Yes I do watch the EBC ultimate vids and know the guys at EBC very well and we’ll be doing something with them all going well at a later date with other cars etc.
I now have a Honda Civic Type R (FK8) Facelifted new version and it’s amazing. I always knew it would take a seriously good car for me to not regret selling the ST, thankfully it’s amazing.
Please stick around and subscribe as it’ll be great to have more people like you on here! Thank you so so much for watching! How long have you had the ST for? Are you based in England?
@@PeakPerformanceReviews Appreciate the feedback! Civic type R, I get it ;)... I think you are right about stage 2. What kind of mods would you suggest to slightly improve things besides flywheel? I had the ST for almost 3 years. For sure will follow you guys and the folks at EBC do impressive stuff. I am actually in Luxembourg.
So sorry I didn’t see this 😫 YT hidden, have you still got the ST?
Love that front end,
no way am I trying to get that Molten Orange paint matched though
Thanks fella, I love it too not everyone does but I’d say 75-85% of people do so I’m super happy, makes a change from the norm too.
Yeah I bet that’ll be hard for sure, please stick around and subscribe if you don’t already we need more people like you around 👍👍
@@PeakPerformanceReviews How much for the ensurance per say UK and Ireland
@@revanvonheaven8270 of course depends where you are in the world and how old you are and if you have a fresh license etc, overall they are a reasonably decent car insurance wise to insure I found 🙌
@@revanvonheaven8270 thanks for watching also fella please stick around and subscribe as it’ll be great to have you around on here 🙌
Challenge, take a shot every time he says “erm”
Drunk times 🤩🤮💞
Don't think about prices just pretend that it's ice cream then it's all good lol
I put a load of stuff together for mine 3500later I wasn't even finished
Bits for mine not to easy to get but I found some good stuff save some money maybe a intercooler next year it's a direct fit rather than messing around cutting pipes to fit 😎
The reason I am sticking with this is cos I like unique I don't think you'll find another one 🤔
Haha I love that analogy, but yes I totally agree and I think I can totally understand why you would stick with it too.
Why would you name drop the shop that put an illegal exhaust on your car?
I'm sure you are opening them up to a huge fine.
🥽
For a new turbo upgrade, st200 is plenty fine!
Yeah I know it’s a common upgrade. Less laggy and more responsive no doubt too, just won’t make those bigger peak number. That being said it’ll suit the FST nicely if say. Yet to drive one with the ST200 turbo myself.
how do you get 350BHP and and also reliable*
Stage 4 Revo turbo, it made 347bhp
Reliable I guess depends on how you want to define it I guess. I look after my cars, lots of servicing, triple ester race engine oil etc etc
2 years and about 25000 mile at this power with about 20 track days too of which were full days at Nurburgring and Spa. I’d say that’s pretty reliable, stick block too with no block mod 👍💪
@@PeakPerformanceReviews nice ! "triple ester race engine oil" which oil is this ? which oil exactly were you using ? how often did you change it ?
Miller’s CFS, it’s an ester based engine oil, I use it in every single one of my cars, not a crazy deal more expensive than any good oil but comes with huge benefits. You can even net some small gains in hp and torque with it too (very marginal) but the reliably benefits are the main reason I use it 🙌❤️
@@PeakPerformanceReviews thx, didn't know it. you still used 5W30 ? or other viscosity for this 350BHP FIESTA build ?
5w-30 if you can, if it’s a stock motor it’s better to keep the oil for the stock clearances etc 🙌
Next mod should be the Ford ST200 wheels
Yeah there are nice and very different too as technically fairly rare too.
Do you have an ST also? Thanks for watching fella, if you don’t already please stick around and subscribe as it’ll be great to have you on here 👌👍😎
What spoiler?!?????
The big arse one at the back 🤣
@@PeakPerformanceReviews yesss 😭
@@PeakPerformanceReviews I want one I don’t like the stock look
@@masnizmissing4248 ahhh I get ya! Yeah I love it! It’s a Focus RS style Maxton design spoiler you will want a good body shop to fit and ideally it should be fitted to a Zetec S Spoiler not the stock spoiler like ours or it sits a bit high - www.maxtondesign.co.uk/ford-fiesta-rs-roof-spoiler
Used to have one of these. God I hated those wheels. What were Ford thinking? They look so cheap amd heavy
And the lug nuts were even worse haha! Yeah totally agree fella
What about insurance, I'm guessing you're with a mod friendly insurer?
Yes I’m also probably older than you think too haha 😂 so is not too bad at all.
@@PeakPerformanceReviews 30 isn’t old
@@jakubm2347 why thank you I agree ❤️🙌 thanks for watching and for the kind comment …. Well for making me feel young still…. Which tbh I do feel young as I am really …. Well within reason haha
Stage 4???. A stage 3 peron map is 350bhp?
I don’t think it is …. Well at least on another search it appears they are 240whp which is about 276bhp-300bhp ish. Don’t get me wrong loads of manufacturers take on what makes a car stage 1/2/3/4 etc can and is sometimes very different.
Staging mods is a guide anyway, some people hate the idea that some people use stages to guide what typical mods are on a car and/or power. It’s not to say a stage 3 turbo car couldn’t make 350bhp on the right dyno. I’m not saying your lying either or that I’m trying to be funny. Mean no offence in what I’m saying.
Thanks for watching if you did? Do you have a FST?
Uhhhhhhhhhhmmmm nice car
Thanks 🙌
Mega car, but you definitely don’t need to spend anywhere near 8k for a properly set up car
Thanks fella I appreciate it.
I’d be interested how you do it for less?
Here’s our list.
EBC Apollo Balance BBK+ Pagid RS29-£1500
Intercooler £600
Better cooler plugs - £50
Revo Stage 4 turbo with map+SPS - £3800
Suspension+spacers - £400
Intake £300
decat/down pipe- £160
Cat back exhaust - £500
New exhaust fire ring - £10
Solid motor mount - £170
Lower engine stabiliser - £40
TTV Clutch &flywheel - £1250
Blow of valve -£150
We’ve got even more than the above but imo everything bar poss the clutch and flywheel is needed (imo it is though if you use it like we have)
Imo it’s better to be super honest, you could do it for less but .... heck knows how .... I suppose not doing it right but yeah can be done
The above without clutch and flywheel = £7680
With clutch and flywheel = £8930
Power isn’t cheap.
I wouldn’t go to 330-350bhp range without the minimum these mods.
Although at around this I’d do the block mod too if I ever did this again, guessing that’ll be circa £500 at a guess.
Forge internals with block mod would be the right way to go and that would add another £3000-5000 depending on how mad you go.
Thanks for watching bud appreciate it.
Again though 100% I’m all for hearing how you do it for much less than that safely.
Stock crossover 🙈
jimmy McCain I know right it’s proven to be so restrictive all of that cfm trying to flow through it 🤣
Hope you have stoped saying erm all the time
Nah mate! Erm not yet 🫶
Uh uu uhm uuu uhmm
Errrrr ermmmm ermmmmeerr errrrrrr
