What did you do to your Fiesta ST today ?

Drained my oil catch can and got about 6 drops out.

How long since the last drain/when you installed?

How long since the last drain/when you installed?

I was just wondering how much it collected , It hasn't been but a few weeks since I put it on. So it was really just to get an idea of about how long I can go and from the looks of it . I'll be able to go several months before checking on it again.

^^^I just drain mine at every oil change, except for one extra drain in the middle of the (COLD, short-tripped, fuel diluted) WINTER OCI.

Cleaned and oiled my air filter after waaayyy too long (well over a year [emoji2361]). Also bought oil and a filter for a change next week.

Have a set of whiteline springs coming to add to the box of parts I need to install (Whoosh crossover pipe, Whoosh boost hoses, and eibach sway bar).

How long is too long for oiling the air filter? What kind of filter is it also?

K&N - they say up to 50k miles, but I like doing it roughly every 15k because I drive in dustier conditions often. I was right near 25k in this one. I knocked out a ton of crud just by tapping it several times on the ground.

Installed the stock/factory heat range (they ARE available in at least one step colder as well ) NGK Ruthenium spark plugs.

The factory plugs looked really good (almost white ceramic electrode surround, no excessive soot, and only slightly rounded center electrode) @ 18K miles, except that the gap was a little more than the .028 they started at from Motorcraft/NGK.

The idle at least seems a bit smoother than before, but will have to wait for a long trip to see if there is any actual mileage improvement.

I will move to colder plugs once I have a tune in the ECM.

I got my Mountune cat back installed today. Liking the sound but the shop I took it to install had some troubles getting the tips to sit just right(even with new powerflex hangars).

Ended up using stronger clamps to hold everything in place a little better and I'm happy with not burning my bumper off. Even happier with the new sound.

Just added a Boosted Designs Dead Pedal.

I'll try and record one tommorow when I install my pineapple slice into the engine mount. It sounds a lot deeper and has more bass than the YouTube videos can show.

It's also a bit more quiet than expected until you really get on the gas.

I also installed my powerflex transmission mount today. I also inadvertently had to uninstall and reinstall my crossover pipe. I removed the plastic clip to my ecu while my silicone intake hose was out and the clip popped right down into the turbo and had to remove everything to vacuum it out. Not fun but at least I got the more troublesome mount out of the way.

Finally got a little snippet of what it sounds like. Didn't want to Rev bomb in my quiet suburban neighborhood so I just did a cold start with some light revs towards the end. Can definitely tell how different from stock it sounds though.

Also had myself a pretty productive 4th of July off, installed my illuminated dead pedal which I am loving how it looks.

Also finished with my passenger side mount insert to complete the trifecta of engine mounts(tranny and passenger mounts make almost as much of a difference as the RMM initially did). Was working alone sadly and couldn't get enough strength to remove the passenger bolt for the ARP replacement


Lastly I saw someone post an air freshener just like this and I had to have one 😂. Easiest install of the day.

Backup camera install to come this weekend hope nothing goes wrong there.

Great! Which camera did you order?

Took off my ST XTAs and replaced them with a new set of YWC's with Swift springs. Pulled apart the XTA fronts to clean and remove the POS springs to be replaced with Swift springs. Trashed the rear plastic and thin aluminum perches and front plastic lower perches to be replaced with real components from YCW and mounted on my son's brand-new-to-him FiST.

I just got a 20 dollar one from ebay that replaces the license plate light. I don't know much about wiring though so I bought the harness from 4D tech for an easier install, and I'm having my father in law help me with the install.

Man I love my exhaust I have the same one and the same inserts. Great mod choices!
