It does, theres some slight changes though and I can't for the life of me remember what they are haha. I know that some engines don't have an EGR valve and some do, etc.. Will see if I can find the thread I read before about it.
Fiesta ST's... whats to know?

it's no easier than any other engine. There are loads of 2.0 Litre 4 pots that respond well to tuning, the ST is no different, and to claim that it's good and ford just detuned it on purpose is a load of rubbish.
Smokey Im not much of a Ford fan no matter a Ford engine fan boy. I dont know much about Fords but I do know that, that engine is very tuneable. Please dont post on this thread on something you dont know anything about you are just annoying everyone with your rubbish.
But it's had thousands and thousands spend on it janesy, did you actually read my post? Other engines respond the same way, throw money at em, it's not hard.
There in kit cars mike because there light and cheap, thats the 2 main reasons. You have no place telling me to do anything.
My god, you are thick as 2 short planks.

OK if you added an induction kit, manifold, sportscat or decat and a decent back box you can get the ST to about 170-180bhp. Thats like £400-£800 worth of parts and labour depending on who you know can fit it. I think thats pretty impressive IMO for a N/A engine.
400quid? What are these parts made of cardboard?
I've had one for a few years now and am looking to change it.
Everything has been said that needs to be said really. Most of my driving is on motorways. I am getting 32ish mpg. It's fairly noisy on motorway and needs a 6th gear badly.
I have fitted KN filter which made a noticeable difference and improved my mpg from about 25 to 32. Obviously that is with sensible driving.
For the price they are a lot of fun but I'm sure there are faster things out there for similar money.

£400-800 maybe its the lack of a ridiculous scene tax making the parts less expensive? None of those parts are overly expensive bar the manifold which isn't even the problem but more the flexipipe being the restriction.
Two of my mates are mechanics so all I would need to do is pay for the parts and sit back with a coke and a smile.
Most of the tuning parts that you can get arent that expensive like Pete19s said. Just fitting them is the pricey part.
Also quoting you on the £400 thing Smokey have you heard of a thing called 2nd hand parts? Why buy new when someone is selling it at half the price. OMG do you know a site called eBay? What do you think its there for?
I got a £200 induction kit from someone 2nd hand that had it on for about 3 months and bought it for £130.

And you want to be a part of that scene?!
Other than a complete replacement of the suspension components given how old they all are.
