Hey guys
Just purchased a 2015 Oxford white Fiesta ST! I am not very good at driving stick yet, but always liked the idea of having a fun, performance focused, and reasonably economic car for a daily driver. I switched from an 08 Audit A3 hatchback, and the 2.0T engine was about to explode. That thing was a nightmare, I had to replace the water pump twice at about 1k each time. Glad that the dealer gave me a good price on my trade in as there was 128k miles on it as well.
Anyways, just wanted to introduce myself. I do not know much about engine upgrades or what I should try to do for my car. I see there are all kinds of Cobb enthusiasts here, but the stage 2/3 upgrades are pretty pricy for me at this point. Is there a 'good place to start'? What can I handle myself in terms of upgrades?
I am sure I will have plenty more questions for the group, and this may not be the best place to post them. Thanks in advance, and I look forward to more great driving experiences.
