What did you do to your Fiesta ST today ?

[Raziel510]

I used a 2.5 HP 21 gallon compressor. The minimum HP requirement is 1 HP at 50 psi.

Err..Just run Aux fuel and you will never have to do this ! Should've done a DIY for the Forum! Next time i guess!

I wanted to run the XDI and 30% injectors without the split second timer.

If I could get an ECU controlled port injector that’d be amazing but I also have no desire to to run a split second timer.

haven't screwed my car up like others

We all have engineering degrees, thousands of hours in testing labs, even more hours analyzing data, and a firm understanding that seemingly beneficial changes can have unintended trade-offs down the road.

That may be, but how much has it cost all of you. Me? Maybe $10,000 for everything and NO problems. I'm more than happy with my car's performance so I don't try to get 'bragging rights'. I aim for reliability.

Why'd you get a Ford, then?

Because it's never let me down. Can you say the same?

Don't give up your daytime job!

Am trying to do catback, where do I go from here, they have rust welded in, and I doubt I can drill them out

 

[Jabbit]

Torch them until they are red hot. Wear gloves and glasses.

Installed Whoosh short shift adapter and Whoosh shifter cable bracket bushings yesterday... honestly it could have been better (9000.01% my fault) - I'm 98% sure I put the bracket bushing in the back (the one sideways one) facing the correct way (fatter side of the bushing is on the left when looking at the engine bay from front of vehicle)... I kind of stripped the allen heads when putting the short shift adapter on because I was paranoid because I didn't use loctite. Cutting corners is dumb, don't do it. But..... while I was in there I cleaned the battery and battery box and put battery donuts, dielectric silicone paste and battery terminal protector on brushed/cleaned posts. I also learned what type of filter I have on my intake (narrow, 6.5 inch long cone). OH, and I ripped the hood insulation off.
To review the short shift adapter with shifter bracket and shifter base bushings, I heard one review say that it takes an extra little push to ensure it's at the end of the slot in the gear gate... but my experience is a bit of the opposite. Before you had to push (or more like, PLACE) the stick into gear, whereas now once you're 2/3rds of the way into that gear it feels like it kind of sucks it the rest of the way to the top (or the bottom) of the gear travel, almost pulling it out of your hand and doing the work for you if you're shifting really gently and slowly.

I know exactly what you mean by that pulling the shifts in on ya. I especially notice after dailying my crz all week then get in the fiesta and it practically pulls it out of my hand as soon as I start to make the shift. Its nice

Two pretty casual evenings and finally got the DP out. I’m in no rush because my replacement O2 sensors are in limbo with Fedex (worst courier I swear)
Tomorrow will be BOV and maybe wastegate actuator.
Also need to clean the brake calibers so I can ceramic coat them.
forecast is shite for a couple days so no rush anyway, last step is summers are going on and I probably jumped the gun bringing it into the shop.

Mountune Short shift adapter is by far the Best out of all of the adapter* Nice smooth closer shifts!

Your FiST looks so small compared to the heavy equipment also in your shop!
