gje2403 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hi all, I've recently been adding my own personalised touch to my car in the form of styling. So far I have had my alloys powder coated gloss black, added door sills, wind deflectors and upgraded from the horrible yellow bulbs to crisp white ones :) The only other thing I'm in the process of doing is painting my brake calipers, but once that is done I think I'm set on styling and personalisation for a while and I want to concentrate on performance upgrades I was wandering if anyone could advise me on what performance upgrades to think about, and what you would do or have done to your cars, to give me some ideas about what is avaliable for the ecoboost engines I have been considering an exhaust system and a stage one remap but I'm interested in other performance upgrades that I probably have overlooked as well, such as induction kits and so on All advice is welcome as this will be a first for me as far as performance upgrades are concerned :) Thanks all :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarksST Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Is warranty important to you? If not pumaspeed have packages upto 160/170bhp. If it is I would look at the Mountune MP135, primary and secondary intake hoses, induction kit, boost hoses and charge pipe and intercooler. All are warranty friendly, I think they have an exhaust coming out for the 1.0l too. http://www.mountunestore.com/collections/mk7-fiesta-1-0t 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gje2403 Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 Had a look on the website, and they sure do have some parts which look tasty! Think I'm going to start off with the Intercooler and charge kit upgrade, coupled with the induction kit they do. I have emailed them about the induction kit though as one thing that isn't stated in the product description or view able from the product image is whether they have included the MAF sensor housing, as im right in thinking that this is needed, as without it the car goes into LIMP mode??? Thanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarksST Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 The mountune induction kit is a panel filter, uograded airbox with secondary cold air feed and the intake hose. It uses the original airbix lid that has the maf sensor mounted onto it. The same kit except the intake hose is used in the ST upgrade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I've also got a remap but I'd say it does make a little difference, definitely makes more noise ;) Definitely worth the money too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mental_Atom Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I really want to mountune mine... but my policy is a "no modifications" one and with one year NC it will send my premium through the roof anyway. I'm going to wait til I've had it a year and go for it all at once I think :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gje2403 Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 It looks like this when it's installed you got a video of how this sounds when revving the car? would be aaweosme to hear the difference between this and stock :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Would have got an ST but the lack of doors is a no no ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Yep, mist the keyless too much after having it on the old ST and the new Focus is way out of my budget. Keeping the ZS grill for the new car but the other bits are going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
