Butterybunz is Back! Let the build thread commence...

OK cool.

Yeah that's what I've read, 20-30, and it's all about timing and that sounds safer too. I'd go e30 but there are no stations near me, it's a 45 minute drive. If we get one close I'll definitely try it out and probably never go back.

Thanks again.

Hey so I looked at my last 91 log and compared it to my e30 log for you. Granted the weather was probably different and other factors to consider... On 91 octane my peak boost was around 24lbs which was attained by 3300 rpms and held to redline. On e30 I hit 24lbs at 3300 just like 91 but... It goes up to around 26lbs by 4500 rpms and hold 26lbs to redline.

E85 is very accessible where I live, which is a blessing. I always have the 91 tune to switch back to on the fly if I need to.

YES, it IS!

It's probably one of the biggest advantages to living in the mid west, for an enthusiast.

Yes we have a vast amount of stations in the Metro Detroit area that offer 85, I've been considering an E30 Tune after the downpipe goes on to switch to in the spring. Just wondering if I feel like dealing the the on the fly mixing or not? We also have a 93 on tap everywhere which im currently on with Stage 2 Cobb.

Love your build

Surprised I haven't seen it around much. How did the Fiesta do at brainerd? I assume the speed of the course kept temps from being am issue.

I still think the Fiesta with an x37/47 could take my RS at autocross. My x47 seized before I could get both cars to an event. You do any local autocross events?

It does great! I'll be at Proving Grounds this weekend doing AutoX Fri & Sat and Road Course all day Sunday. I didn't have temp issues, the weather was cool and it should be again this weekend. I plan to upgrade my radiator and an oil cooler in the future but so far no issues. Is this Nick?

It is me. I had to ask Justin if you were a member of the group as I haven't seen your car at events

I wont make proving grounds as Adam has my car for the next month but I'll be there next year!

Side note, I do have a mishimoto oil cooler I never got installed if you're interested.

I saw that. I am done for mods this year otherwise I'd pick it up! Gotta give my bank account some recovery time from all the car and house mods I've been doing.

Went through this whole thread expecting some help on how you fit a real wheel with a real tire. But you just went from stock to lowered to wheels and flares in two post

 

[Butterybunz]

Whoops, double post. See below.

Hi! Yup, that's me! I've been a fan of Ford hatchbacks for a long time.

Sorry sir! I got behind and should have done a better job showing the process. I'm happy to answer any questions you have.

My setup is BC coilovers with uprated springs, I then cut the stock fenders and welded the rears to seal, painted any exposed metal to prevent rust and then installed the M2Motoring flares.

Now that's cool


I make payments......so not down lol but I want a 245 bad

 

[Butterybunz]

Just bought a Quaife LSD... Not sure when I'll get it installed but I'm excited to see the difference it will make in the snow and on track!

 

[MKVIIST]
