Hi everyone, this is the first car that I've ever had that gives me so much joy to drive, and the first car I have ever considered modifying. Sooo...here we are! I wanted to document all the work I do on the car. It will be a slow build since I'm balancing trying to buy a home, and modify the Fiesta (He's named Indy) but I will be sure to update as much a possible.

Just got a few introductory Cobb parts that everyone seems to agree are good starters when modifying:

First the new parts with Indy:


Adding the new filter:


Jacking him up to add the new RMM:


New RMM installed:


I also went ahead and changed out the Antenna, for a Perrin 2in Shorty Antenna:


Since I've changed out these parts, I feel I now have the itch to continue modifying. Next for me will have to be an Accessport, a tune from Adam at Tune+, and a new Intercooler.

I also have a shipment from No-Pistons coming that is a nice looking dead pedal and batter tie down.

In summary, here is what I have so far:
Cobb Rear Motor Mount
Cobb High Flow Air Filter
Perrin 2in Shorty Antenna

Future Modification Ideas:
Here is my spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1U_ZKKrkSO2BlkelUYR2rfFKTl1qbZ3u-uCYFfR-f9Bk/edit?usp=sharing

Thanks for taking a look! If anyone has any other suggestions for add ons feel free to let me know!

click doc...

Short shift, check
Lighter wheels, check

You probably want a catback (or better yet, turboback) exhaust (after intercooler) to maximize x37 turbo upgrade.

(FYI - your "turbo" section is not adding properly)

[MENTION=1507]Waterfan[/MENTION] Awesome, thanks for the tips, I will add in the exhaust, not sure which brand to go with though? I will also fix the Turbo section on the sheet.

Most people choose exhaust by cost, sound/noise and materials preference. Anything ~2.5" diameter will give good performance. Lot's of great choices for all tastes, good luck trying to decide :)
