Well impressed, not just for doing it in that weather, but for doing it without ramps 😊

Sounds great! I've done similar on my 1.4 Focus with an eBay unbranded 'race tube' exhaust and they do make a good sound. If you want to unlock more potential in these engines, swap the entire intake manifold with one from a 1.6 MK1 Focus. The inlet runners and throttle body are larger diameter and it really frees these engines up. Also swapping the gearbox for a MK6 Fiesta/Fusion one gives it shorter ratios than the Focus box, helps the acceleration out somewhat as the original Focus gearbox has too tall a gearset for the 1.4 engine really.

I have a full hornet exhaust system on mine and its far to loud 👀, is the sportex system a lot quiter? Want someone that's sound nice but not loud
@jpst1703 жыл бұрын
We found the hornet was excessively loud this exhaust is so much nicer and quieter but still has the grunt when you put your foot down 🤓👍
