Welcome, man.

And: Oooooooooooo. That is going to be one tire-shredding beast. With all the added HP you are going to make, I'd suggest an LSD. I'm not entirely sure what you mean by an "air ride," but you cannot go wrong with an upgrade to your suspension via coilovers. You are going to miss those Recaros when you start thinking about track days or autocross (or even driving the twisties in your neck of the woods), but you can always find true racing seats. Heh. It never ends, even for a daily driver.

And look, you have more Rep Points than Posts. LOL.

Mitch, if you put air ride on the Fiesta I'll have to drive out and slap you.! This car is for handling, not hard parking! ;)

Also, buy my GarageLine spacers.

I know. Kinda leaning towards coilovers right now.

Thinking about the spacers. want to figure out better plans for wheels and tires first.


so, the car still has less than 450 miles....and its stage 2. CP-E catless dp, Catback, RMM, intake and accessport are installed and its a whole different animal.

When do the intercoolers arrive?

Soon. Soon. Soon.

Just realized that Stage 2 needs the FMIC. So..... Im in a wierd place between stage 1 and stage 3. Going to get Protuned once I have the FMIC.... SOOON.

[MENTION=2728]CP-E Mitch[/MENTION]

Is this CP-E's new FMIC I saw posted on CP-E's Facebook page today for the Focus ST or has this been released for awhile now?

Nicely designed end-caps btw...Which begs the question as to when can we expect CP-E's FMIC for the FiST to be released?

We have had the focus intercooler out for a while now....long enough that theres knock-offs on the market.

Yes you can expect a fully CAD designed, flow analyzed, car specific intercooler for the FiST from CP-E in the near future.... cant say a date... sorry.

Got it on the dyno, COBB OTS Stage 1 tune, CPE RMM, Intake, DP, and Catback- 180hp and 245ft-lbs. Mustang Dyno numbers and our dyno reads especially low.....
higher numbers to come....


Also, the "Estimated Torque" on the AP was really close to the torque readout from the dyno...

Sounds about right. I'm still trying to decide if I should do a follow up dyno this Saturday at the BBQ.

Yes. AWD mode. too much in the way to move the fans to the other side of the dyno. If you do come out make sure to sign up beforehand. Theres a link on the website and facebook. Ill have my car on display with a FMIC on display for all to see.

Intercooler in and it is released. Install is pretty damn simple and it even retains the plastic things on the front of the intercooler.

After looking in the intercooler thread its one of the biggest cores and one of the biggest frontal areas, Especially for NO DRILLING OR CUTTING. Temps are VERY low, always below intake temps and I have gotten it BELOW ambient. You do have to remove the small lower grill in front of the intercooler though. Not a big deal.

Estimated on torque with COBB Stage 3 tune has hit 283. No negative corrections EVER. Waiting for chargepipes for a protune....CP-E charge pipes of course.
