ive got a photo knocking about somewhere of this engine with a cone filter without the airbox.

a bloke i used to know done this aswell, he used what he called a top hat adaptor.

ill av a look for the photo

[fezza89]

cant find the photo of the engine but i found a photo of the adaptors

[b0yracer]

fitted the front bumper today so all ready for paint now

[b0yracer]

its the airbox thats the restriction not the filter

it was proved futhermore in a recent Fast ford mag, the original paper element provided the most bhp, even over the K&N etc

its the airbox that holds the key, might be worth getting hold of a 1.3 airbox, its bigger and not as restrictive

ive chopped the part of the air box off which was restricting the air

it runs much better like this anyway so it will do for now

[jonyb4]

would ave to be a shallow filter, even them mushroom style ones are a push

been there myself when i owned a 1.1 (my first car)
didnt know about them adapters then

[b0yracer]

just tinkering about today and ended up fitting the fogs/spot lights (not wired up yet, just wanted to try them in)
getting dark when i took photo so its a bit crap lol

[jonyb4]

ah that looks tidy

like the 'top' in the plate


whens the painting happening?

[b0yracer]

painted soon i hope
my mates supposed to be doing it he has proper spray paint gun and bit of experience

if i was to do it it would be piss can

[b0yracer]

yeah top is cool

[b0yracer]

tried to wire spot lights up today managed to get one working but got PISS wet through so gave up and came in

F!!!!!G weather

[jonyb4]

lol ah well atleast now you know what your doing

[b0yracer]

lol yeah well i do with the spots, got to work out how the fog light switch works ive got a genuine ford fiesta front fog switch

[jonyb4]

oh! theyre a right pain in the arse!

had to try and figure the one for my mk4, jesus still hadent figured it, popped many fuses simply swapping the wires around the back of the switch

[MK2 Jamie]

Looks like its coming together nicely. Next step is sorting the wheels out after the kit is painted.

[b0yracer]

yeah i want some nice whels

and yeah i want it painted soon, im getting as fustrated as you guys with that one lol

i wont be popping fuses ill work out how the switch works before i wire it in lol

[jonyb4]

Or a set of these motorsport alloys, two dont have tyres, £100

Id stick with ford wheels if I was you. Either 16V xr2i/RS 1800/ Mondeo wheels. Are you going to be at Fiesta In The Park and Ford Fair next year in it?

[b0yracer]

just bought a set of these off ebay

i just want my fiesta to look like a standard xr2i

[russ-RST]

looking good keep up the work

[MK2 Jamie]

Those wheels will look good. I personally would have gone for 16v wheels because your car is a 16v colour.

[b0yracer]

painted front arches today phots make both sides look a different colour but they are both the same

[EUFez]

Looking good buddy.
