I haven't noticed any wheel hop in my fiesta yet... my old focus st on the other hand was like trying to drive a jackhammer

I hit 2nd hard, once, a few months ago. The engine slapped the firewall. I knew exactly what it was from my MS3 days.

Now I wonder if Ford will issue a TSB for the FiST. Do problems have to be reported to the dealer first? Do enough people have to complain before action is taken? Can the RMM be replaced under warranty before a TSB is issued? So many questions.....jeez

What puzzles me is that Mountune UK does not seem to think it is needed yet .. or maybe I missed that too.. This will be a EASY mod when it gets release and I too have it on my to do list ...

Rod...I sent you a pm

You are correct Sir .. as well as Drifter I think redid his own with a stiffer poly rubber anyway here is a link to the Steeda Part

I will be waiting for Cobb prob though

Yes I did, working like a charm. Car is putting power down a lot better.

I'll have to look into doing this if Cobb doesn't release something soon!

Any noticeable difference in nvh?

 

[Drifter]

Pretty much the same as stock, thats why we used two different compounds, 65 for front and 80-85 for rear

Did you experiment or was it a one shot deal?

 

[Drifter]

The mount is exactly the same design as used in the MK6 Fiesta ST, so yes, we gained quite a bit of experience from that.
