Looks like stage 2 is getting closer, the test stage 2 graph is up

Is it really necessary to run a FMIC for stage 2? I know it says it on Cobb but I definitely plan on getting an intake, but I'm not sure if I want to go with a FMIC or not.

I am with you, intake, exhaust and tune sounds like enough for me.

That will make a spicey little car no doubt... and save a ton of cash too.. nothing wrong with that ...

 

[Kip2MyLou]

Is an exhaust necessary for stage 2? I heard that was stage 3 material.

 

[rodmoe]

A turbo back exhaust for Stage 3 but not Stage2 to if I recall. but a Cat back just adds a fun factor to the sweet music this car plays under load

 

[gojagz]

Cobb confirmed on another forum that Satge 2 is: tune, intake, FMIC.

I wonder why they are so adamant about people needing the IC for stage 2. Ive heard from a couple sources now that our stock intercooler does a decent job. I'm kind of inclined to believe that, just look at peoples dyno graphs, all of the runs are so similar and I'm sure that's probably because the intercooler is doing a good job of not heat soaking.

 

[Kip2MyLou]

That's exactly what I'm hearing also. When stage 2 does drop I'm going to get it and run it with the tune and just the intake. I think will be fine.

Back to updating the firmware, you just plug you AP up, open the program, and update?

Yes on the firmware if it does not then do it auto then have it look for updates manually . Also you need your PC to be connected to the internet to access COBB's site . but that almost an assumed thing like you need thhe pc turned on too .. LOL

 

[Kip2MyLou]

Yeah, that's what I thought. I saw when you open the program manager there's a spot where it says "update" at the top of the little screen. I guess it just checks for updates automatically when plugged in. I'll check it on Tuesday; that's when it's released correct?

 

[rodmoe]

That is my best Guess next tuesday from what I gleamed from other sources ..

I have also heard that the heat soak issues with the Focus ST's stock inter-cooler even at stock power levels is much less applicable to the Fiesta ST's stock inter-cooler. Edmund's dyno'ing FoST and FiST back to back found that the FoST was inconsistent in the amount of power made due to heat soak, but the FiST was very consistent with back to back runs very close to each other, my own experience so far has pointed to the latter.

Ya I saw that video and read that article. I think the weak link is the piping. The IC may not be REALLY needed until you go BT. I'm sure it'll smooth out/improve flow, but as of right now my personal opinion is that its not really needed.

 

[Kip2MyLou]

Anybody know what time today the updates drop for the AP??

 

[SpooledUpST]

No but I keep checking the site every few hours....really hope it does go down today. Wonder how much different the v1.01 maps will be. I'll be very keen to compare. I wanna see some dyno charts side by side against the v1.00s.

 

[rodmoe]

LOL I thought I was the only one doing that ..
