Spirit Blue Fiesta ST

I like driving but I wouldn't want to drive for 9 hours. I'm taking my car up to the Lake District in March, looking forward to taking it on those roads.

Fitted the newly released Montune/Samco induction hose tonight. 10 minute job to fit:
Some of the bumf:
The mountune high-flow induction hose for the Fiesta ST was engineered to increase air flow to the turbocharger and replaces the restrictive factory hose between the air box and the turbocharger inlet pipe.
Produced exclusively for mountune by SamcoSport, the mountune high-flow induction hose features stainless steel wire reinforced sections to prevent deformation under engine load but enough to maintain compliance.
Back to back comparisons with the OE hose on mountune's in house flow bench revealed an impressive improvement in airflow of over 35%.
• High quality silicone construction
• Machined alloy insert allows easy installation of original breather hose
• Stainless steel wire reinforced
• Easy installation
• Increased air flow and induction noise
There are a few colours available but I opted for the subtle black outside/yellow inside combo. More factory fit that way.
After a quick 2 minute drive there is definitely more noticeable whooshing from under the bonnet. Obviously real world there will be no real performance difference but its a quality product and looks the part. Worth the money? I'd say so.

fitted at the weekend...not as easy as they make out....BUT a great improvement to the gearchange its far better :thumbup:
I would :thumbsup:
I don't think its that good - pretty poor change from 1st to 2nd - and for me the lever is a bit too far forward - once the quick shift is fitted you know how good the change could/should feel
Yeah, first to second isn't great. And its not only me that thinks the gear stick is bit too far forward.
how much?
