Hey guys, been a while so thought I'd start with reintroducing myself. Name is JP from Cape Town, South Africa and I drive a white 2014 Fiesta ST180.

Current mods are:
- some led's at footwells
- Philips bulbs upfront
- ITG intake
- STO downpipe
- Vari Racing uprated grooved front discs and EBC yellow pads
- Renntechnik short shifter
- Hyper black sprayed stock wheels
- Stealth Tuned software

Happy to announce that together with Stealth Tuned I've taken the next step, orders placed and my full X37 hybrid build is underway :D

The following items are inbound and to say I'm excited is an understatement!

Pumaspeed:
- Large bore Intake elbow
- Fiesta ST180 X-37 320 Billet 7 Blade Hybrid Turbocharger
- R-Sport Ford Fiesta ST180 Large Bore Hot Side Hard Pipe Kit
- R-Sport Stage 3 Garrett Intercooler Fiesta ST180 - 450 bhp
- Fiesta ST180 Quickspool Tubular Manifold
- Ford Fiesta ST180 Large Bore Induction Cross Over Pipe
- Ford Fiesta ST180 Smooth Silicon Induction Hose

Boomba:
- Stage 2 oil catch can
- Throttle body spacer
- Inlet spacer
- Transmission bushings
- Shifter bushings
- Symposer delete

And of course to bring it all together only the best software from Stealth Tuned in collaboration with MAXD OUT/Pumaspeed [rockon]

Ruan at Stealth has been a great help, brutally honest and a top class guy throughout the whole process!

Will post some more pictures and progress as it unfolds

I like that exhaust, very pretty.

I just saw that R-sport hot side pipe, did you install yours? What do you think of it?

[MENTION=4182]Wimp Lo[/MENTION] thanks! R-Sport hot side is decent, performs well and no problems but I would recommend pipes that's solid for a bit more of the system like mishimoto
[MENTION=4339]WeTheNorth[/MENTION] & [MENTION=3180]TempeST[/MENTION] that is spot on :) Dyno this side is run on 4th gear and we only get 91 octane, 93 is over double the price lol So very few run it. Love my setup and the way it delivers power is insane, hand out a lot of schooling :p

Great Numbers. I'm sure these results will make people want that X-37 a lot more. Everyone I have seen that uses it is around 280-300. Seems like the perfect turbo for the car. Keep up the good work. Almost makes me want to get rid of my EFR... Almost. lol Again, great job on the build and awesome numbers.

First, very nice setup. So did I understand you correctly, that you made that power with the x-37, PS Tube Manifold, Throttle Body and Intake Spacers, and an almost 3" exhaust on 91 Oct? Was there anything special about mounting the PS Manifold to their X-37 turbo or does it just bolt up because that manifold doesn't appear to be an option when ordering that turbo from puma? I bought mine from Adam, but sorta wanted to get the manifold as well.

I sent an inquiry to PS yesterday asking if their small bore tubular manifold would bolt up to the X37. I suspect that it will, because another forum member (Haste) has that manifold bolted up to his stock FiST with no turbo upgrade.

Why wouldn't it? It's made to work with the stock turbo. Since the x37 is a stock turbo, I don't think there would be any issues
