Hello fellow FiSTers, after lurking this forum for way too long, I decided it was time to finally join. I fell in love with these cars after I saw Molten Orange FiST at an NMRA event in Bradenton FL a few years ago. The itch to get a new car became too much, and my local Ford dealer had exactly what I was looking for; Molten Orange Metallic with the matching Recaros. I took it for a test drive, slept on it, and went back the next day to trade in my 2011 Mustang GT/CS and got the Fiesta ST on 12/31/2016. No regrets so far, and moving to a place with lots of canyon roads is a definite plus. Mods so far haven't been too crazy, but I will be taking it to at least stage 2 shortly, and eventually stage 3. First thing was to get rid of the front license plate holder and put in some color matched bumper plugs, then I replaced the factory shift knob with a Ford OEM carbon fiber ST shift knob. After moving to California, I replaced the factory RMM for the Cobb unit, and also a Green Filter drop-in. I'll be getting my Cobb AP from Stratified Tuning in the mail today, and the Damond Motorsports OCC tomorrow. I'll be ordering a Depo Racing FMIC once they're back in stock, along with a new hot side charge pipe, most likely Mountune. Not sure if I'll do the cold side as well, but if I do, I'll order the Depo racing set. Luckily for me, but not my wallet, both Mountune and FSwerks are 30-40 mins from where I work. The FSwerks shift kit is on my short list of mods so I'll be stopping in there in the near future. I'll be doing updates as I go along, and I'm looking forward contributing to this already awesome forum!
