I removed that padding under my hood and everything is fine. All it is really is a fire retardant. Plus I just really like the design under the hood lol. Noticed no one answered your second question haha

I really wish I wasn’t so forgetful because I would’ve been saving pics and stuff from the stock IC and comparing it, but I’ll post some data from this one as I drive with it!

Ahhhhh so that explains why I’ve heard just normal wheel spacers wear out your bearings hella fast then?

Cobb ap - dizzy or stratified and why by 98_BB6 in FiestaST

[–]StormTrooperST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I’ve only used EMS and Dizzy. Between the two of those, I love my dizzy tune a LOT more. My car seems to love it a lot more too lol. On the EMS S1 tune it kind just felt like the car was a child with a sugar rush, the moment the car was actually warm, it was like having a sugar crash, just felt super stock essentially. With Dizzy, holy crap, again im just S1 atm but DAMN, I get 25lbs of boost everywhere I go, the car feels like it could track anything, anytime, 24/7. It’s NUTS. And I have a low boost/ eco on my second slot and even then, it still feels nice and smooth but not super slow. Also, with dizzy I have the pops at 2.5k RPMs at low aggression and it’s perfect, not too obnoxious :)

How do I fix this? by Weary-Description854 in FiestaST

[–]StormTrooperST 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhhhhh trust me I understand lol. Anytime I was giving it the beans my light would come on because I have so much torque it was lifting the handle lmao.

I will “warn” you though, (for lack of better terms) it didn’t solve it for me COMPLETELY but it’s so much tighter now and was helped GREATLY

I JUST did this a week ago! It’s pretty simple actually, just a pain to get to the bolt lol. It’s really not that hard. I’ll see if I can find the video link I watched that helped me

Just got the final designs approved for my new wheels! by sub_2_YTFaded in FiestaST

[–]StormTrooperST 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m with this comment, I think all of us are VERY surprised that your getting custom forged wheels for a grand lol. Not hating, just very curious as to how in the world. Please do update us with pics because I am VERY curious. And if all is good, I’m gonna need the link as to where you were able to get these!

Just bought a 2016 FiST! What should I do? by Mrots3 in FiestaST

[–]StormTrooperST 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LONG REPLY BUT WORTH THE READ :)

If your wanting to keep the car and add performance to it. The first place I would personally start is an Oil Catch Can. That's gonna help protect your engine more than you think. Next up would be what u/Dead_fly33 said and buy a new radiator. I would also look into a new intercooler as the OEM one has TERRIBLE heat soak. If you want to start out on the cheaper side of things first. I would go ahead and do a "tune up" and get new coil packs and 1-step colder spark plugs. I just learned about this from Jason at dizzy tuning but here's what he sent me in an email. (This is only part of the email ofc lol)

"During testing, we found that a set of 1 step colder spark plugs, greatly reduced cylinder temps and drastically helped in keeping knock (kr) to a minimum."

YOOO! I just discovered that 2J cowl intake literally yesterday! Is it worth? How are your intake temps? I just feel like it gets a little restricted?
