2023 Backbone Hillclimb (Mt Alma) top 10 shootout Ford Fiesta ST S290 Day 3

[@fordyford]

Very nicely done. This has to be one of the best sounding Fiesta ST's on the planet.

[@Team_NDR]

Thanks for your kind words! it sounds even better in person

[@Prawnleem]

Amazing driver very skilled (and brave), I have a budget build ST with just an intake/remap and bc racing coil overs 8kg front and 6kg rear springs and 215/40/17 toyo tr1's, i use it for daily driving and auto solo competitions in the UK. Yours seems so planted! And I agree with the guy below best-sounding ST I've heard for sure.

[@Team_NDR]

Thanks for your kind words! These are great little cars and are super capable of you do the right things to them, sounds like your having some good fun with yours over there 👌

[@hoomee7605]

​@Team NDR what good things can i do to keep the rear planted rather than behaving like a widow maker? Any advise?

[@brucewillson3854]

@@hoomee7605a good sticky tire is a great place to start but another big thing for these cars is tire pressure. Most people like to set the same psi all the way around but fiestas handle much better if you run 32-34psi in the rears and 36 psi in the front. Also making sure you have a proper alignment is crucial. These are a few simple things most people overlook that make huge differences in handling.

She sounds so good mate. Would love to see it with a sequential box

[@Team_NDR]

Thanks mate! That would make things a bit of a laugh, but nothing wrong with a H pattern!

[@fentnizzy]

What is the head unit you have with all the car info? Shows all gauges? Looking to get one myself!

[@mberry7857]

What engine turbo supporting mods are needed to run this sort of turbo set up. looking an s280 for mine or even potentially an gtx3071r gen 2. Any advice on keeping the car reliable would be great. Everyone I’ve spoken to haven’t really done much with turbo setups and tend to go for off the shelf “bolt ons”. But I’d like to try something different to all the other fezzes here in southern part of uk

[@S61MBO]

Another amazing climb, that thing just sounds and performs awesome. If you don't mind me asking, what head unit screen and app is it your using for your readings?

[@cammythomson6465]

What alloys have u got on this?

[@Team_NDR]

Rota titans

[@willshawyer7280]

How much power is this thing pushing?

[@Team_NDR]

Was making 290kw for this event

[@sampson2430]

What is the wheels and tire setup on this car?!

[@leon3987]

Question, I live in the United States, how much does it cost to order you guy's full 3" intake/charge piping and the equal length header that you guys have, thanks!

[@s2foci]

How did you get those gauges to display on the radio?

[@mc1996]

Probably an Android Auto aftermarket radio running Torque Pro App or something

[@kasparjarve]

Hi. What tire and wheel size you run?

[@Team_NDR]

Hi, we were running 215/45/17 for this even on 17x8 wheels
