I own the the same car Also and they are so fun to drive not daft power just easy fun to drive and I also have a hornet splash sports exhaust too it dose mate the car complete just makes it sound a bit more OEM I have also done a few other bits and peices to it, carbon mirrors and some badges here and there around the body can’t agree enough they are such a good little motors 👌🏼🤙🏼

I'm guessing the ease of mapping explains the amount of fiesta ecoboosts for sale with blown engines?

[@Nathan-qt2zi]

Nope that's the wet belt

Nice vid, looks professional

[@sidrolf]

lol

[@ryn401]

ayyyyyyyy gonna be my first car also live in cornwall :)

[@sl-fu3uh]

No way this eco boost can hit 180 stage 1 and the 140bhp model has 2 upgrades on the engine which the others dont reason the cars blow because people don't do their research.

[@eshangupta2401]

looks like hes driving in cheddar gorge

[@tjzero849]

if he puts too much HP into that engine, hes going to blow it, gonna be a very harsh lesson if so

[@xrp589baby]

fuck that!..live life on the EDGE my friend!!

[@tjzero849]

@@xrp589baby yeah man, forking out 1.5K for a new engine for maybe a weeks worth of driving faster is “living on the edge” 😂

glad I turned you around

[@derp872]

This guy talks like this fiesta has 300hp and is a stripped out track car

[@tjzero849]

lmao it sounds like he's had a quick look up of the car specs XD

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

Shame about the way these engines blow up after 50k miles though :/ see my review for confirmation ;)

[@sidrolf]

What?

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

@@sidrolf The Ecoboost 1.0 engines have a major flaw, and quite often the lifespan is around 50k miles before they lose compression, Well documented by Ford, that's why they are known as the "Eco Bang" engines ;)

@@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes mines 74k and it’s all good still :) got the red edition

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

@@thoughts4843 They don't ALL blow up obviously, but the amount that do fail is incredible! I certainly wouldn't buy One again :)

[@tjzero849]

@@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes ah, we are some of the lucky ones i see! mines at 73K miles and still going strong, got the black and red edition, beauty of a car! ive got the alternator, cam belt, and head gasket replaced with brand new parts so far also.

[@stuartcampbell4414]

I wouldn't recommend anymore than 160...anymore and it will start overheating without a intercooler...and if you do remap it to 160 I wouldn't recommend using anything but v power only,u need to remember it's only a tiny bambino turbo...

[@jvtech9581]

Cheers for the advice mate, hoping to get one for my first car

[@neilcole3406]

Change the fan belt or cry!

[@sl-fu3uh]

This video is really misinformative the fiesta is actually between 1400kg and 1600kg guy doesn't really know his stuff.

[@sampattison231]

[@Nathan-qt2zi]

No it's not you don't know your stuff 😂
