- 2018 1.1 Zetec
Hello all this is my first post
I bought a 2018 Fiesta Zetec 1.1 about 3 years ago and it is my first car hence why I am not wanting to simply sell it and get a new one sentimental value and all.
It seems to have a serious lack of power though not sure if this is due to wear and tear so is actually slower or if it just feels slower.
Anything obvious that could be making it lose power?
It comes stock with a whopping 85 bhp and would like to get a power increase for it. Preferably not engine swapping it or turbo charging as the insurance quote doing these doubles if not more.
So what would the best options be to increase the performance I know that it is not going to get to anything crazy but an extra 30-40 would be nice to have.
I have looked at Cat backs, cold air intake (seems to be a lot of debate if these even work), throttle body upgrades, camshaft upgrade etc but all are quite pricy.
What would be the best bang for the buck upgrades to actually get more power for a naturally aspirated engine?
Thanks
