Some of you might remember me from way back.
I had a 2014 Fiesta ST, I have a build thread here about that one: http://www.fiestastforum.com/forum/threads/2177-2014-Ford-Fiesta-ST-project
I returned that last month and ended up picking up another Fiesta, a 2016 Fiesta ST as I couldn't really find anything else in the same price range that has the same price/performance ratio. I still have my Evo 10 GSR for track use.
Here is the 2016:
Unfortunately I found out the hard way COBB pulled Accesstuner so I can't do any tuning yet, however I swapped my accessport to the 2016 today and did a bunch of datalogging and testing that perhaps will be interesting to some people.
The car is 100% stock. All the datalogs where done on the exact same stretch of street, the exact same day and the ambient temp was approx 78F for all the datalogs. Before people freak out that I am running E25 on a stock car and even Cobb stage maps, I advise you to look through the thread above. I know what I am doing, I am logging and I have almost a decade of experience running ethanol and almost 20 years experience tuning cars.
Stock tune with 91 oct VS. stock with E25 (putting 2.5 gallons of E85 in the car):
For some reason this 2016 doesn't like 91 oct much, it baselined lower than my 2014 did on normal 91 oct. Good thing ethanol exists because it perked right up putting 2.5 gallons in!
Stock tune with E25 VS. Cobb Stage2 91 oct map:
This was interesting to me as I gained basically nothing with the Cobb Stage 2 map.
Cobb Stage2 91 oct map with 91 oct VS. Cobb Stage 2 91 oct map with E25:
Cobb Stage2 91 oct map with E25 VS. Cobb Stage 3 91 oct map with E25:
And finally...
Stock tune with 91 oct VS. Cobb Stage 3 93 oct map with E25:
I can throw up the datalogs on Datazap if people are interested! The ONLY log that had knock was the Stage 3 93oct with E25 but only 1 count up top.
