mactell Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Hi all, How easy would something like this be to fit to a Ford Fiesta MK6? And would it improve it? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/F1-Z-DOUBLE-Fan-Air-Intake-Supercharger-Turbo-Turbine-Fan-Blue-/251525958027?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3a901d898b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Easy to fit, but save your ten pound honestly. Waste of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Would it not improve it at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattDRX Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 It'll set the air sensor off when it starts getting overwhelmed, probably not CE marked and quite likely to cause a fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 It'll set the air sensor off when it starts getting overwhelmed, probably not CE marked and quite likely to cause a fire. Really? How would it cause a fire? Does this need power? it doesn't say it does in the description? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 No it'll probli end up restricting it overall, as the intake when your moving will be more pressure than these supply I bet. They require a 12v ignition feed I think, to supply air by spinning the fan when engine running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mactell Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Ah what would be best then to get more air in? Just want it a bit more nippy, nothing major. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 A turbo ? but you'd be better off getting a faster car tbh. Could always remap it ? put an induction kit on ? New exhaust ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 What does an induction kit involve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Just a new intake hose and new filter assembly with shroud to protect from heat soak. Other option is to just replace your panel filter with a k&n or pipercross etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Would I notice any increase? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 You wouldn't notice any power gains, there minimal if any. You'd only notice the noise (throatier). On a turbo car you'd possibly get better throttle response and less lag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Ah whats a good induction kit for a Fiesta MK6 1.25 then? Need one that's easy to fit and cheapish? but still makes a good noise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Something similar to this... http://www.madmotors.co.uk/k-n-57i-induction-kit-ford-fiesta-mk6-1-25-03-08.html Or a j1 if there is a kit for this mk. All easy to fit and similar noise, plenty of topics on the subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactell Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Seems a little expensive for a couple of hoses and a cone with a filter round :/? Thought they are normally cheaper than this but I might buy it just to get it a go. Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 An induction kit is always around that price and normally more. You can get cheaper ones but you get what you pay for. No worries dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattDRX Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Cheaper option, sell the car for a few K and buy a Mint Ph1 Impreza STI Type R ( the good looking 2 door one ) Jap Import for 2K, change left over for insurance #Jobjobbed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 It can be seen as an insult... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 it can be generally frowned upon as either an offensive reference to the Japanese, or alternatively I am sure you have heard the phrase of such an eye? which also can be seen as offensive. We are always happy to review words in the filter that others do not feel is necessarily, I might start a seperate thread where others can put their thoughts towards the team and we can review them in turn.

karlos1987 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Oh I get ya. Didn't think about the eye. Lol. You might be opening a can of worms by creating a thread for reviewing such words. Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 There is a strict warning on there to make sure that no one misbehaves, and anyone who deliberately does will be shot, hung, drawn, quartered then fed to the goldfish! :p 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
