I lucked out and found someone local that wanted the recaros. I found them so uncomfortable I almost traded the car in. I’m very happy with the cloth seats.

I haven't been in actual fiesta recaros.... these are the early focus st model fitted onto the fiesta base. I guess they are slightly wider? I'm also small by most American standards (5'7" 150lb)

Bought a GFB DV+ from a forum member and finally got around to installing it today. Those bolts are an absolute PITA to get to. Not a hard job by any means (literally 3 bolts and pliers) but it still sucked because I didn't have a swivel socket, just a semi bendy 8in extension. A little louder than stock but won't grab any unwanted attention. It's actualy quieter than I expected. Car feels smoother between shifts, can't speak for power gains, mainly because I just reflashed from E30 to 93 so the car feels slow regardless. My RT660's are at 4/32nds so they can't even handle 93 torque lol. Driving around the car feels smoother between shifts.

It should generally be quieter than stock. It doesn’t release as much boost as stock does.

I dunno - looks like a lot of lipstick to me......are those diffusers something to do with all the Minnesota snow or the 10,000 lakes?

Its a Verus splitter* great option and functional. looks awesome too! It also keeps the Salt in that area to a minimum as it stays covered.
