Hello all, I purchased a new Fiesta in 2018 that remains bone stock. Last week I purchased a 2nd Fiesta a 2017 with about 46k miles. Looks like the previous owner put some money into this car and I was wondering if anyone here may recognize it and may know more about it. I know it has a full turbo back Cobb exhaust, Cobb intercooler, Cobb intake, short throw shifter, Turbosmart bov, launch control, front drilled slotted rotors, lowered, carbon fiber wrapped vented hood and rear engine mount. I haven’t looked to see if the turbo is stock yet. The car did not come with a tuner. Wholly sh*t this thing is a little beast! No problem lighting’em up all the way through 2nd and sometimes 3rd. Just looking for a little info. Thanks guys DF03FF3D-755C-4DE6-894D-70ABEC1F0C52.jpeg

I think the turbo might be toast. I was driving then all the sudden no powa bebeh. All piping looks good. Theres a noise that sounds almost like an electric motor that increases with rpms. Starts up fine and engine sounds ok. Any ideas? I’m in the Knoxville area if anyone has recommendations on where to take it.
