Alright so to have the Mountune MP215 Upgrade installed on my FiST (which is US Spec, it'll be a goddamn unicorn in the states) it'll cost 1050 euro. This will include the full Mountune induction upgrade, a special tune, and the M-Tune tuner thing (it's the same as the Cobb AccessPort).

Is it worth it? It seems a bit pricey but to have it done right at an actual Mountune shop in Europe would definitely be something to make my car stand out when I make it back home. And I'd have the AccessPort which I want anyway.

I'd do it. IIRC, it doesn't void the warranty, which should protect your monies a bit better. *

If you're really uncertain about it, think about the number some more .... 215 PS in a Fiesta . That's almost previous-gen Focus ST power.

[ * = make sure not to spend 5k just to get it there and back, though ]

I would have to drive an hour and a half over to Luxembourg so that's not too bad.

And yes the numbers are very appealing.

220hp and 236 ft/lb of torque.. mmm.. So very tempting, even if it is an hour and half drive to get to the shop.

Ah ... I read U.S.-spec and deemed it a clue on your location. In this case, I'll definitely recommend getting the package.

Seeing that the Fiesta is already heralded as the more enjoyable of the two STs, a peg more power could just make it awesomesauce. ;)

I like how you think.

I'd say it would definitely be worth it. One thing I would say it to make sure it's mapped to suit the gas you'll have back in the States.

Luckily out here I have 93 octane and I'll be here for some time still but, that is a good point and I didn't even think about the gas.

212hp. 215PS = 212hp.

Plus whatever I can pull from the MRT exhaust. But yes you sir are in fact correct.

Ah. Didn't realize you're getting exhaust too. Hopefully it's worth the money; a cat-back on my car would only pick up like 4hp :/

I've been looking at exhausts, I am not set on one yet though. The Cobb turbo-back exhaust is super nice but $1200, the straight pipe set-up is like $700.
