No idea buddy. Just going on the theory of less volume will fill quicker.

No worries. Would love to get an airtec intercooler on my car buts it's expensive plus might get more lag as you said.

The guy who tuned my car Gareth at STealthWerx he’s done multiple tests and data logs on a smaller cooler and large stage 3 cooler and of all the hardware is kept the same just changing the cooler there is no more extra lag the turbo still starts boosting at the same rpm, the only issue with a small cooler will be heat soak and you won’t be able to go as fast for as long, after a while it will get to hot and start to pull timing out and reduce your power until temps cool down and it will increase timing again, with a large stage 3 cooler it takes hours to heat soak to that level, after 6 20mins sessions round snetterton the temps on a stage 3 cooler car didn’t rise at all but a stage 2 smaller cooler car started reducing power after the first session, the temps didn’t recover and it had to sit out the 3/4 session due to heat it could only do 2 sessions at a time 

but it’s personal preference really

Is the special only in 3 door or do they do it in 5 as well?

Just re-read one of the earlier Auto Express previews and they were supposed to be shipping sometime in September according to that.

I'm putting down a whopping 1p that @Willy will be coming out in Orange soon :laughing:.

Is that a special edition ST like the ST200? 

Pretty much, but no extra power this time 😞

Edit PS: The interesting thing (to me) is the article suggests the suspension mods improve comfort as well as handling. Hope they filter down to the standard version in which case my back may be able to cope!😀

I'm getting strangely drawn to orange cars after seeing this and an Orange Fury Mk 4 Focus ST...........

Looking forward to seeing what you think to the suspension set up - I'd quite like a touch more power/torque but without having my knackered old back pulverised!

So the day came last Saturday to say goodbye to the MK7 Fiesta. I will miss the 5 door convenience but not the other little issues that the MK7 suffered from.

The mk7 looks absolutely different with everything off. Don't worry about the 5 door to 3 door downgrade. I got worried myself when I switched from that but I honestly don't find it much different 👍
