What did you do to your Fiesta today?

[econoboxrocks]

Put a pedal spacer and a pedal cover on it. Raises the gas pedal to the brake pedal. Much easier to heel-toe. The brake is so grabby, it was hard
to do it before. I like it! https://razzter.com/product/accelerator-pedal-cover-and-spacer-combo

So,took ‘Freddy’ into the city today,coming back thought I would give it a burst!160km an hour & the thing was still pulling hard!Tell ya what,these things go like the proverbial rocket!

They really do. That reminded me of a road trip I took the summer I got it. The speed limit was 80 in some parts of Wyoming. It was a quiet Sunday morning with almost no traffic, so I set the cruise on 90. Felt very stable, so I took it up to 120 for a bit. Still felt stable, but I didn't feel like going to jail, so I backed off. These cars are very fun to drive!

The official stat is 121 mph for the 1.0 Ecoboost, or 195 kph. Mine is 139 stock (223 kph), but I think with my mods it would do a bit more.
Not bad for some tiny little Fords!
The base 1.6 is 112 mph (181 kph). Not too shabby for an economy car.
Ford raced these cars for years, so the handling and high speed stability is the best in its class.

Just a great little engine.Nothing in its class comes close.Ford have always been very good @ small handling cars.

Mountune never did much for the 1.0 here because not many were sold. It's real popular in EU, though. They have all kinds of sweet mods for your car. https://www.mountunestore.com/collections/mk7-fiesta-1-0t

Hooked up some new fogs. They match the headlights now and they turn yellow too. Road trip tonight, so I'll see how they do. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07WNSKS8D/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1LGDXCZMXB2CW&psc=1

Nice - thanks for the link!

I installed them yesterday afternoon and used them that night in rainy, stormy weather. They are superb. The only question left is how long they'll last.

My trippy experience was so good, I started a thread about them on the ST forum. https://www.fiestastforum.com/threads/the-ijdmtoy-fog-lamps-a-new-dawn.28753/#post-470311

They even look cool when they're off.

How do they turn yellow?

 

[econoboxrocks]

How do they turn yellow?

Push and pull the fog light switch and they'll go back and forth between white and yellow. No issues yet.

Are these diode dynamics?

 

[econoboxrocks]

No.

Update: Still working as intended.
I have LEDs replacing most of my lights. LEDs are great.
Pros: Better light, lower temperatures, lower draw on the battery, looks cool and modern. I'm still on the original battery.
Cons: You have to buy and install them. It's really easy, other than the fog lights. Fogs aren't that hard. Just a tight space.
