Had a boo-boo this past weekend. Jacking the car up to install the front Bilsteins and do an oil change and jack broke when getting ready to install a jack stand.
Jack collapsed when a seal blew under load while i was reaching for the jack stand to put underneath. Safety catch caught it but jack slid enough to where it went through the side skirt. Car is in need of small body repair and side skirt reattachment.

Will update with photos later.

$100 and a friend at a body shop and we're back to new. Really glad it wasn't more severe.

Bought a Go Fast Bits DV+ diverted valve upgrade. Should work great with whatever I plan for in the future.....

Completed an oil change and tire rotation on Saturday. Also removed my Boomba BOV spacer and installed the GFB DV+ diverter valve upgrade. Significantly faster response time while driving backroads and it feels like it holds better up top. No numbers but the feel is significantly more consistent.

Next weekend ill finally be doing the front Bilstein struts. Hope to have pictures when they are completed.

Welp, was never planning on putting an exhaust on it but heard one with stock DP and a 3" MBRP catback. I couldnt say no. Got the T409 XP version for under $450 thanks to Whoosh Motorsports. They have amazing prices on just about everything for the Fiesta.

Cant wait to get it installed. Will post an update when the time comes.

Putting a MBRP Setup on a Focus ST today at the shop! Great taste!

Let me know how you like it. I am concerned about the drone that people are talking about with the MBRP setups. If it really is that bad i may decide to change it up to a more muffled system.

Gets delivered today. Fastest shipping ever.

Did you have it on a Fiesta or Focus? I have heard both good and bad about this 3" system so im a bit worried.
I had an Oxford White ST just like you. Had downpipe tuner and bought a mishimoto intercooler but never put it in. Had to trade it in for a bigger car. Still have the intercooler laying around somewhere.

Loved the car and the sound of the MBRP but I HATED the drone on the highway. I was going to buy a cobb to replace it but ended up trading it in with the exhaust on it.

I think my stock downpipe will help muffle some of the drone. Ill be installing it this weekend so ill put my findings down sometime Sunday.

Installled today. For the short drive I took it sounded perfect. No drone from what I can tell and has a nice growl to it from idle to redline.

Only gripe is the shitty exhaust tips. They are absolutely cheap pieces of shit.
