What did you do to your Fiesta ST today ?
How hot is it? Driving at 75 my charge temps hit 114 and that's with the whoosh v1, lol.
I came to a stop, swapped over to check intake temps which were actually at the same temp as the charge temps for a short period but then stayed at 130-135 before parking.
This shit is crazy. People complain about not being able to drive hard in the winter but there's just no chance in the late spring/summer. Even the ambient temp went from 91 to 105, climbing even at speed.

Got the Mountune/CSF radiator. If you ever thought a radiator could not be a work of art or a thing of beauty..... well, you have to see one in person!
I did notice the sides bow out in the middle.

Yeah, shame for sure. But I'm sure there is SOME Engine Bay fanboy out there that could make a clear plastic cover to replace the black one. It would be the last thing I'd ever spend money on.
Who the fvck cares what it looks like under the hood.... It only make the fanboys feel better about it, yet when you're flooring the pedals, you think nothing of it. You don't accelerate and get hard imagining a shiny radiator, polished intake manifold and headers. Those days are gone and for many of you, before your time
All that matters, absolutely all that matters, is the it runs, runs fast, runs reliably and inexpensively. Anything else is fluff.
Wheels would be the exception Factory wheels on 90% of cars are horrid. My wheels look fluffy, but they are also functional at 17lbs 3oz. Window stickers are fluff. Go fast bumper sticker that adds 5hp? That is where it's at .. lol

Definitely NOT before my time, but then I NEVER really cared about under-hood 'bling' (or even from the factory engine bay appearances) at all.
Maybe because I am not a big car show fan??![[dunno]](/images/smilies/icon_smile_dunno.gif "Dunno [dunno]")
Same as most add-on/aftermarket aero bodywork looks out of place to me (whether actually functional or not), unless one has ALL of the matching pieces (i.e.; full flares, etc.).
Now wheels, yeah, that's my 'sticking point', and I will go broke getting the ones I want, since to me, they 'make or break' the aesthetics of any car, and you do have to see them every time you walk up to your ride (unlike the under-hood flash), so why not love the way they look.![[wink]](/images/smilies/wink.gif "Wink [wink]")

Went for a drive in the North Georgia mountains yesterday morning. This was my first time in the mountains since buying/installing the AP, and damn she rips. Even for being mild, the 93 octane tune really wakes up the car and I love having the gauges to know when I need to let her cool down for a bit.
