What did you do to your Fiesta ST today ?

[Cheetah30]

I think you got to loosen the locking collar which is on the bottom. Then you turn the top collar to adjust the height. They look reverse threaded so turn the lower collar clockwise to loosen it. Then turn the upper collar counter clockwise to bring it down. But don't take my word for it lol. Please read the manual.

I'm having my friend who is a technician at the dealer I work at fix it for me. I know how to set it I just did it at the wrong height.

Switched my downpipe from a no name brand DP to a Whoosh V1. Super happy with the fitment as the other one was actually making my MBRP exhaust hit the tunnel. Easily a full 1 inch lower where the downpipe meets the exhaust.

I’ve been looking into this. Didn’t know that JBL makes one. The other one is the Rockville Rockghost. How does this sound? I like how well it utilizes the space over the spare tire. Can you take a picture of the controller?

Sounds amazing no distortion at all and I don’t get any rattle or buzz or anything, when you consider how small our cars are this is definitely the perfect sub in my opinion without going overkill. I’m from the Bay Area so we love our to keep or Bass Boomin and that’s one thing the stock system was definitely lacking....this fixed that

Cool and thanks for the quick response!

Oh and best of all it has an auto on/off feature if your using High level inputs so wiring was a breeze, all I had to do was run power and then Tap into both b pillars on either side, no remote turn on wire required. It was intimidating being my first time ever wiring a sub or speaker for that matter but I managed to get it done in a few hours.

That's an easy install.

I just noticed this is 11" compared to the 8" Rockville. You got a deal for $200 then.

I swear if I ever hit the Powerball or some absurd amount of money I'd buy some land somewhere and just create a really nice track. I'd have no idea what I'm doing but I'd pay people that did haha.

Not as easy as you think. After TWS closed, some people with money wanted to build a track, in the boonies somewhere between Houston and Austin. Got thwarted twice because of the locals coming out with pitchforks - to prevent the rich “boys from Houston” pollutin’ their manure-stinking pastures.

Put another one of these lovely things in

I FINALLY installed my Boomba Short Shifter! Woohoo! Combined with the FSwerks adapter I'm at something like 45% reduction. I'll give a try here first.

I'm not sure yet, but it feels like 1,3,5 have shorter travel and are smoother than 2, 4, 6. I'm still running the factory knob for now.

EDIT: doh...forgot to adjust the cable...good now. Still short as hell. I may adjust the adapter from 25 to 15%.

Oh, I detailed the interior too. 303 aerospace.

How was the install? I have one in the mail

Installed the custom SoCal Garage Works flat bottom steering wheel. It took 8.5 weeks including shipping but worth the wait. I'm this and feels great in the hands!!! The wheel has Carbon fiber and Alcantara with grey top line and sticking. The steering wheel button cover was painted separately with Metallic Tuxedo Black when my bumper and hood was repainted. You'll need the zip ties with mounts when transferring the cables from the OEM steering wheel to the new steering wheel. I was able to purchase locally at O'reilly Auto Parts and also the precision screwdriver set for the T8 screwdriver.

Damn this looks great, it really ups the interior by a long shity.

Edit: Long shot guess I curse to much and autocorrect made it shity lol

Go for it. I think there's two other members in here that have the So Cal Garage Works steering wheel.

Ya seriously. It doesn't look econobox. This was the one thing I didn't like with the MK7/7.5 and always thought that I'd never be able to get the flat bottom steering wheels for our FiST.

 

[M-Sport fan]

I would not mind that one bit, but I'd want an ALL alcantara version.

Basically, easy. Use the boomba video with a couple caveats....

Make sure the white trim clips come with the side panels. They may stay in the hole. Lube them LIGHTLY with white lithium grease or silicone di-electric grease to make it easy to remove the trim pieces again...an acid brush will do fine.

Use a bent scribe to undo that latch people keep breaking. They are lifting it too far or prying it sideways. I used one of my harbor freight orange scribes with a double bend on it. Simple. It doesn't need to lift up but 1 or 2 mm.

I did not need to chamfer the retaining rod. It already was on my 2019. I used a small rubber hammer and it went back in w/o an issue. The retaining clip will look like you can't get it lifted out. You can once you force it...lol

Not sure why they said to clip the corner of the reverse lockout. I left mine as is and it work flawlessly. Having said that, when releasing the reverse lockout, I noticed it would hang. I had to trim down the edges INSIDE the factory lockout assembly (bottom, square portion of the tube) with a razor knife bc it was hitting the shaft's base where it increases in size and hanging up. If it doesn't make sense, just bend the upper boot portion out of the way and slide only the bottom portion on. You will feel that it catches.

Lube everything up with white lithium grease, especially the retaining rod. Then, be smart and lube I think that covers it.

Edit: Adjust the shift cable!
1) apply parking brake.
2) remove intake hose from air cleaner to crossover pipe
3) put in Neutral
4) CAREFULLY unlock yellow clip and ensure the cable moves freely
5) shift into 4th gear
6) push/ lock clip back into place.
7) test
