Picked this up yesterday. If I like it I'll keep it, otherwise back to my SCT tune.

What did you do to your Fiesta ST today?

I walked past mine to get the snowblower out to find my driveway :)
Nah man, just drive over it all. It's more fun that way lol. I have an inclined driveway and never shoveled it when I had my Genesis Coupe... I've never flown an airplane, but I imagine with hitting the garage door opener, downshifting into 1st, and angling the car so I didn't scrape (all actions completed within a couple seconds) it was like coming in for a landing. That was on a clear driveway lol. So it was even more interesting with a snowy one when I had to maintain some speed to get up the driveway and into the garage. Only got stuck once during the season.

Anyway, OT, I swapped out my spark plugs for a colder NGK today, gapped at .030. I didn't index, as I don't find 1-2% HP increase worth the effort. If anyone needs them, they are the same ones used for the FoST 😊. Contact Panda Motor Works for a great deal on them if you want them brand new.

Also, I attempted to install my Pierce 6-point... And well, you gotta know when to hold em, and know when to fold em. I had to fold as I didn't have a breaker bar or impact at my disposal. And Rod, my car, instead of 13mm and 15mm, was 15mm and 18mm.

Ill add that to the post and if you saw my drive way you would understand why I try to keep it clear its like 45deg angle up into garage with a north facing garage so no solar melting and this winter I decide to use the snow tires on something else and keep the 3 season tires on the ST I also have a 4x4 for the really bad winter days ;)

Interesting....have you tried it yet? Are you the actual test vehicle for SCT? The SCT will probably feel better since they are specifically tuning on your car vs an OTS Cobb tune...unless you plan on getting a custom tune for the Cobb.

Yeah I am the test vehicle for SCT, the tune they made is for my car on the dyno but it isn't a finished tune. I just in married my SCT device from the car and loaded up a Cobb ots tune. I'm still debating getting the atr software from Cobb.

The coolest thing about the Cobb is the ability to monitor different pids while driving. Some tuners like Cobb better and some like SCT better. Most local dyno shops here prefer SCT because of the Mustangs, Camaros, Corvettes, etc. that they are used to tuning.

Great winter safety with the bright green wheels, not into colored wheels but they work on your car:)

Finally got my car back from the dealership from not having it for the last week. Their solution for my clicking clutch was to replace the pedal pad, which as soon as I heard that I knew it wasn't going to be fixed. Sure enough as soon as I pulled out of the dealership, click.

So I emailed them as soon as I got home. I'm getting my winter tires put on Monday but taking it right back to them after that. They need to just fix the whole clutch assembly. The only thing I hate about the car.
I can open up a new case for you, just let me know. :)
