FSti stage 1

[Jim on the hill]

Evening chaps,

After 4 very happy years with the Foz I've decided it's time to look at taking the power up a bit. I currently have the 2.5" cat back from Hayward and Scott which sounds great but I'd like to have it mapped and the supporting mods added.

Info is sparce on the internet due to the rarity but I've seen a few people (MDMA) seem to be running some impressive numbers.

All advice welcome, 330 seems to be a safeish number to aim at but more concerned by Torque for the fun factor

Thanks, so I don't even need to do a filter or induction kit?

I can't really touch the suspension as I use the ground clearance a lot of the time.

Any reccomendations on mappers? I'm Bristol based so Bob Rawle or TDR agree both close enough.

Interesting. TDR have said that I'd need a decat, air filter, free flow exhaust including air filter and fuel pump to get to 320-330bhp.

That was sort of what I was expecting but I was hoping to retain the cat as don't fancy driving an illegal car. Hmm

Thanks, driveability is the most important thing. Certainly don't want to chase numbers if the end result is losing the fantastic way it drives.

Who mapped your FSTI's? Incredible you have two by the way, some might say greedy.

So after trawling my emails it jogged my memory that I added a Cosworth air filter already and I found an old email from Bob Rawle to swap out the pump and upgrade the spark plugs before the map.

If its not too late....
Just email Bob Rawle and tell him what you are after. He is really helpful and happy to advise on any parts that would need fitting and why and what to expect from them. I have had 3 maps from him now all been spot on.

This. Always this.

Thanks guys, I mentioned above I found the last email I had from Bob Rawle. Sparks and pump have been ordered so ready for fitting then mapping.

If one was childish enough, could they have pops and bangs mapped on to the standard ECU or is that a no?

You might get a few natural ones but you will need a new ecu if you want the proper antilag like mine

Well, that video is just rubbing salt in the wound!

Thanks for the info though
