Dooner: lend me Â£4k to get it turbo'd and i will

or alternatively, Â£3.5K and it will be running stage 2.5 supercharger :lol:

Kirsty: we can do both

it will take ages to save up for this :lol:

Dan: Sweet

well the moutune exhaust sounds nuts, i heard one at FITP but we'll see

i could spend Â£Â£Â£ on a full system and get 20bhp :lol:

Not really read the previous page, but if your planning on going to a place to get it done.. dont.

Buy all the bits yourself, fit them and then take it to a place just to get mapped

Trade it in for a Clio 182? will get the power and may actually get you some money back...

So that's a more powerful car and a holiday...

I will get back in my sensible thinking corner... on my own... :lol:

Happypaul: Yeah, if i just go the exhaust route, my mate is a n exhaust fitter for a living so i will get him to fit it :lol:

Percy: No thanks

well i just want an exhaust really, as its restricted :doh:

in standard form and will release some more ponies, and make it more responsive

i'm not going to get a pumaspeed kit or anything :lol:

You've fallen into every Fiesta ST owner's trap, wanting more power as Ford have "Restricted" it somewhat!

I know if I spent 4K on getting mine supercharged for 250/270bhp on a low boost conversion, I'd want more eventually and would think, meh, another few grand for hi boost conversion, why not, like a few have done. Extreme example but you get me.

I've seriously considered TB's though :drool:

A few times :lol:

I think everyone needs TB's in their life!

Car modification is a slippery slope.

Uprate your brakes and stick some Eibachs on I say, then spend the rest on trackdays :thumbsup:

N/A engines just aren't worth the money! 15bhp here or there doesn't mean much at all.

Pah 4k is too much cost, if people had the bollocks they could do it cheaper :lol:

I'm looking at a grand in total for my 1.8 ZT, with Â£500 of that being the ECU setup alone! :lol:

and I'm only wanting 180bhp in the pickup (which I may add weighs less than the Si's on here

never mind the ST's :hsugh:

)

Fiesta ST pah i just wouldn't i didnt go further than K&N and exhaust on mine, as you pay for mods on the Fiesta ST

Focus ST = 225bhp, 236lb ft + 150mph = Â£10k for 2007 reg in good nick about 20k miles

yeah but i don't want the jump in insurance tax (especially on emissions based! As i am saving on tax with the ST, its Â£170 a year as compared to Â£185 in the Xr3i) running it (a focus st won't be great on fuel would it

the ST is doing 32.5mpg now without a turbo!) etc yet i've only had the fiesta 6 months! I've got the house to think about mate

and i like my little cars :xmasghey:

and that maybe true

but i can guarantee a 180bhp fiesta st would be a good laugh

(thats with a full system, flexi and K+N) but you get my drift

i know it won't break any speed records, but it will be alot more responsive and sound :drool:

as you can vouch for as you had one

It would make a change to keep a car for a while at least, as i have had 15 in 4 years, and the longest i have owned a car was the xr3i for 8 months :doh:

I know supercharged ones and turbo'd ones are fast as fook

but theres no way i'm spending that much :lol:

i'll start off with a flexi as that removes the restrictor and releases it a bit, and my ford mechanic said ford won't notice it for warranty work

as they don't go over it with a fine tooth comb, and its Â£140 i think for a flexi. July might also see some tints, feck the rear screen warranty :lol:
