  • Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
  • We have lots of experience with bolt-on parts for the Fiesta ST after our COBB-Tuned long-termer, but this is a horse of a different turbo. This Fiesta ST has an upgraded turbocharger, and a massive list of aftermarket engine and power adding parts resulting in an almost unbelievable 300 horsepower at the wheels. It's an absolute riot to rip through a canyon.
    Check out the Fiesta ST on Wheelwell!

    For a long time my wife didn't really "get" cars. They were practical tools. A-to-B conveyances that served a necessary function. She knew how to drive a stick, but only because I insisted she learn; she'd never owned a manual.
    Then she discovered rally and rallycross, and through the Head Hoonigan Himself, the Fiesta ST. Two months ago she bought one, Molten Orange and three pedals. A month in, she was asking me to teach her how to heel-toe. Now she's talking about solid motor mounts and suspension tweaks and dropping hints that she wants an Accessport v3 for Christmas, and she and one of her girlfriends (I've no idea whose idea it was) are talking about saving up and doing a weekend at Dirtfish next summer.
    THAT is what this car does to people.

      Exactly, you have to actually modify the cabin air inlet area to make it fit, and I believe its labeled for off-road use only.

    Every auto journalist mentioned that stiff Focus RS ride back in Spain. They mentioned how harsh it was on silky smooth Spanish roads, in comfort mode. So you're right Matt, Ford made it way to harsh. And I guess that is why many sell it after a short while, as you did. It gets tiresome really fast.

    Man i hate the sound of that car. Not even the fast and furious movies went that far. Other than that: Ford really nailed the Fieste ST. I think i would prefer more torque over high hp, but i had issues trying to figure how well this one worked at low rpm, because of the noises that kept me from listening to the engine. I like that the non-engine related stuff was okay. good brakes and some suspension work. Kudos for that :)

      I work at a Ford dealership. Our area Ford trainer is a race driver, he says at their performance school in Utah (all FiST, FoST FoRS and MustGT buyers get a free track day there), the FiST spanks the FoST on the tight track.
      If you like driving, you simply can't flog one of these and get out without a huge grin on your face. And a stock base FiST will retain a HUGE percentage of it's value. Easily the cheapest cost-of-ownership per smile for any new car on the market. Not even close.
      That said The FoST may be more real-world practical if you have a family tho.

    Hey, same turbo I have for the Miata! Great turbo. I know for OEM they use tiny little things, but for an aftermarket turbo setup the spool up on a motor about this size with the 2560R really is great.

      At cruising speed it is, but can apply up to 50% power to the rear wheels. It's not AWD all of the time. Kinda interesting.

      manygaga1 yes sir. if it is on stock internals that car will fail. that fat dude looks like he knows how to tune a car like I know about mating rituals of the Tibetan worm. it looks like he just bolted on a bunch of shit and didn't do what was needed to keep it reliable. Tool.

    • @xShadoku
      @xShadoku 7 лет назад +7

      amievap78 lol these cars can hit like 375 whp on the stock internals. there are several people running the 360r kit from DHM making over 350whp as a daily driver with 20-30k miles no issues so far.

    • @amievap78
      @amievap78 7 лет назад +3

      Seth Kesler bro 30000 miles is nothing for today's vehicles. that shouldn't even be a comment. if you know anything about motors of any kind, not only cars, you will know that something that is designed to operate reliably with an x amount of power, heat, fuel/air mixture ratios, compression ratios, etc... will not operate properly if you double the power output of the same motor. you don't have to be a car enthusiast, or a rocket scientist or any of that shit to figure this out. Also, the clutch, transmission, probably flywheel, etc will not hold up for long since guess what: THEY ARE ALSO DESIGNED FOR 197HP INSTEAD OF 375!!!!
      But what the hell do I know, right?

    • @xShadoku
      @xShadoku 7 лет назад +9

      amievap78 first of all, 30000 miles with no issues is an AMAZING track record for doubling the power on stock internals. Just so you know, that is also stock clutch and transmission. Not to be a dick, but if you think engines/clutches/gearboxes are designed only for the power on a factory tune you are an idiot. The redline and tune are WELL BELOW the actual limits of the stock parts, and not everything needs to be upgraded. All engines are different, but the fiesta ST comes stock with forged pistons and rods......

    • @meganjay30
      @meganjay30 6 лет назад

      The owner didn't actually tune it... In the video if you watched it..?? He says the tuner is a wizard with these things so he knows what he is doing... These engines are already forged engines as Ford knows that people will be tuning them... Same as people get over 800hp out of the mk2 focus RS..

      chbrules I only like the sound of a loud engine when it isn't Mine. As I have 2 issued with louder cars, 1. It makes me drink fuel, which is expensive in the uk, as a louder car encourages a more spirited drive. and 2. The noise just gets old fast when you just want to cruise down the road. Especially if your doing over a 100miles on a motorway . I think it's my age.
