    How does the project look, have you finished the car and are you driving it? Did you have a lot of problems with the electrical wiring and connectors? I'm also considering such a project 🙂

    I think it would be a fun project and a good chance for me to learn something new ☺️ Although the puma is a very lovely and fun car, I just really love the look and shape of Fords older hatchbacks and

I think i'll go with spacers then since they seem to be the easiest! I'll take a picture of my fitment later and post it on here so we can decide on a good size for the spacers! I have also decided to go with the standard puma manifold and cart since I want to be road legal until I can get a whole sports cat setup. I found a pretty much brand new one on ebay from Germany but the postage is gonna be killer!!! The one's I can find that are UK based are mostly corroded and just don't look very clean so may be worth dishing out a little extra for something nicer.

Like just look how clean it looks!!! would save me the hassle of cleaning one up myself lol

It dose pay some time to pay the extra a have to admit am waiting on a new middle section and back section of exhaust from puma speed tried the duel but it was as nice a fit as it looked where the pipe bends hits off the speed bumps so swap it out lol 😂

Yeah that’s the end goal sunk abut 7k into it so far it’s at 200bh well was at that. but all the upgrade on cams , drive shaft , striped out , air delete kit from puma sport upgrade fly wheel clutch kit stage 3 , upgraded plugs coil pack and leds , supention forged pistons upgrade brakes and clippers from pumasport ,rear strut and harness bar race seats .next was the intake manifold and turbo charger but I’ll need to put it off rebuild the engine well fix it haha 😂 white smoke 💨 and loads of it lol 😂

And it’s been remapped to 200 bp

Plus just fitted a omex launch control

There is more been done to it too much too list

As it was sting my mates m sport bmw even with a remap couldn’t keep up with it lol

Was 1200 for the forged pistons and rod kit

Yeah the turbo charger kinda comes on boost late am sure the guys at the Performance Center around 3700 revels

Sure puma speed do a bolt on supercharger kit for 4800 still need to purchase a few other bits to go with it have seen one st150 running 450hp but that’s just a bit too much for mine as just the fact it been stripped out don’t even have the front fog lights anything that could be taken off has lol 😂 sure it weight is 780k did look at dropping in a 2.5 but that looks a bit more of a long process

Yeah there is quite a lot involved but tbh it would be insane tho kinda what a been trying to go for wasn’t sure if a was going to turbo it my eco sport is up for trade I. Next year so a was thinking mk3 rs turbo but a mite wait off to see if the rumours are true on a fiesta rs

Same group insurance as a 911 turbo lol 😂

Why am out off it just now but every time I see one am like hmm wonder what the misses would say wonder if she would notice lol 😂

Right morning guys! Sorry for not being active the past couple days, been so busy with work!!! I have managed to get the clutch off finally, new parts are in baskets ready to be ordered next week or so. Going to be fitting my new door cards on Sunday or Monday since I have the days off. Need to pick up a hole saw to fit speakers to the door cards and that's about all I need to do until I order everything for fitting

 

Let us know how you get on with the door cards looks interesting how to fit the window electrics and stuff and the speakers looks cool 😎
