Ah, makes sense - there was plenty of give. I'll do it another day.

Just been for another drive and it's very impressive! I'm sure I can feel some difference in throttle response. Money well spent on a filter this time round (made no difference to my last car)!

I can't see the box adding anything really other than a logo and an extra £50+. Thanks for the money saving tip Wes! :)

You will definitely be able to feel it if you put your foot down. I love putting it under load and hearing the blow off hiss when you back off the pedal, a subtle dump valve! I have just never grown up!:D

Update on my mpg situation;. I am now getting about 32 mpg at times when I've been putting my foot down and after adding K&N filter/removing the snorkel :(​

Ha ha, you must be putting your foot down alot then!

Can't help it...

yeah my MPG dropped when i fitted the k&n. just because i left it in a lower gear everywhere to make more dump valve sounds :D

After the filter and exhaust im only getting 31.3 now 😂😂😂 worth it though for the noise it makes now 😝

what exhaust have you gone for josh?? that's my next step but i think custom is the only option.

And that is what i did... Like a lot say, couldnt find one anywhere so i got a powerflow made up with twin 3" tailpipes... Looks sweet £600, but im sure you can find other places cheaper

That's exactly what i want, looks like i shall be at the garage this weekend then :D

Off topic, your Titanium X looks really nice with the sports styling pack like the ZS, you get best of both worlds I guess. Did you get a good deal or tempted to get an ST for that price?

I bought mine brand new 3 years ago, had a st225 mountuned to 279 but after having to commute further I needed something that would do more than 27mpg on a good day, so the 182 titanium x was the compromise and the kit was put on in July this year to freshen up the look.

Seen a nice steering wheel I want but it's like £470 at the moe and I can't spend money on my this car like I did my focus MP3 mondeo st200 and the focus st225

so this happened, 3" slash cut tips on a resonated stainless cat back system. £400

Sweet sounding good? Cheaper than mine ...looks good though mate 👌

Yeah it does cheers, it gets louder as you progress to 3.5k revs then looses the deep badass note though which is a shame ... Might have to remove the resonator next year this is how the zetec s cars should look imo.

Yeah mine does that too at about 4500revs it looses the deep tone but its all good !!! Twin pipes all the way mate you know it !!!

looking good fella

 I’ve had  my zetec s for a few months now  having owned the mk 2 st a few years back I thought this would be massively underpowered to what I wanted , I just use it as a toy really for me to tinker with so far I’ve upgraded the wheels to 18’ Romac radium, lights to LED bar lights had a spoiler riser from delta styling had an axel back exhaust fitted at mij exhausts in Walsall the less said about the owner the better and I’ve had a Collins  performance remap stage 2 with intercooler and rs airbox it currently runs at just over 220bhp so I’m pleased with it and it’s cheap to insure as well
