Focus 1.6 180 induction

[Andypower]

Just a quick one. Will a induction kit for a ford focus st fit a ford focus 1.6 turbo 180.  

 

Thay look identical engine bay wise

Depends which bit the induction kit replaces.

[Andypower]

All the way to the turbo.   The full kit 

[alexp999]

I'd say not then.

Would expect the turbo fitment to be different and in a different position.

I'm not 100% though. Can check microcat later if someone doesn't confirm first.

Yeah ill take a picture of my engine bay and post it up. Then you and we can compare.    Ill have to check the fitment size of the turbo as itll be a different turbo.

One is the st ecoboost and the other is the 1.6 turbo 180 ecoboost

You sure that's a 1.6? Looks like a 2.0 to me...

[Andypower]

The first one is the 2.0 st the second is the one i have. The 1.6 180 bhp.

 

Notice the oil filler is in a different place.

 

 the second one is the one i have. ive been out and looked at my engine. Though not took a picture but its the same. Exactly

Here are some parts catalog screenshots, as you can see, while the design of the pipes are similar, they are not the same. The sensors are in a different position, the mounting brackets are also different and the pipe going down to the turbo is longer.

1.6:

ST:

Yeah nearly the same.  But not quiet enough.

 

Have you got one of them of the fiesta st with the same engine?

 

Thanks for posting

Here you go, totally different airbox setup though.

[alexp999]

If you want to improve airflow, I'd look at getting an ST airbox for it and dumping the snorkel under the slam panel.

That's what mountune do for their warranty approved performance package on the 1.6 ecoboost.

cheers for your help alex.

 

Itd be aesthetics too.    How the whole engine bay looks .  There are a few kits from america that look amazing.  Bit ott and expensive i know but i thought id ask before actually shipping it over.

 

 

Looking at the two pictures of st and 1.6 the only real difference for me us the pcv valve location.  The map sensor location would be the same on the induction piping.  So thats not a problem.  And fixing bolts can be modified.  

If only i had a stupid amount of money to buy one and if it dont fit. Meh.
