NicJ Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 As nath said give it a good review, don't want to be ordering if your experience with it is no good. Give it a good road test aha Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nath.mk7.st Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 To be honest I don't really expect a noticeable difference but for the standard one to be better would be a big let down. Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky2013 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Don't worries fella's when I say test I mean taking this engine to the edge ;) Anyway would be rude to return roxy on Sunday with tread left on the tyres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nath.mk7.st Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Haha if be taking a few un noticeable parts that's they wouldn't notice off as spares haha Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky2013 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I've taken the headlight clips as they always snap, got 2 spares :) also taking the engine cover, gonna have 1 standard and 1 sprayed blue to match. I'm seriously considering taking the mountune air box and k and n filter out but think it's a bit harsh on the next owner lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philf1 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 That's interesting I have the mountune inlet hose on my stock ST and am thinking about the mp215 so would be interested in what you find. Could it be because the hose was fitted after the retune? Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky2013 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 So just been out to Gatwick and back with the mountune hose and defiantly the stock hose sounds better , you can really here the induction noise and hiss clearer with stock hose. I'm undecided on pickup / throttle response between stock and mountune hose . Is it worth 100 quid, doubt it now I've tested it a bit maybe get the 50 quid one from js Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it worth 100 quid, doubt it now I've tested it a bit maybe get the 50 quid one from js If the stock hose is louder it can be deceptive and give the illusion of more power, if you are timing the 0-60etcyourself its difficult to get consistant results, and the differences (of the 2 hoses) small To truly test the difference between the stock hose and Mountune hose you need back-to-back testing on a dyno, which of course is what Montune have done The map usually gives a much bigger performance increase to the hose, which may be quite small I know some owners like a loud car or one that pops, bangs growls or hisses, for me, noise is an unfortunate side-effect of free-flowing induction, exhausts etc, and i try my best to keep the noise down to acceptable levels without compromising performance (the opposite of what some others seem to do on the forum) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky2013 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Right I'm confused , put the mountune hose on my new st3 completely stock and it feels better and sounds better with the mountune hose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
