used to get 25mpg when mine was standard on a run - goes way down when you cane it though.

theoretically 165! dump valve won't make a difference to bhp
When does the turbo starts to load pressure? witch rpm??
runs out of steam about 5300 ish if i remeber correctly
And does the dumpwalve sound mutch or is it a little "psshhooo" or is it a larger "PSSSHHOOO"??
depends on the make but it make enough sound don't worry
Whitch is the fiestas wheak link? gearbox or the engien or nether?
once you get to big power the gearbox - but you'll need to be well over 200bhp to have probs. weakest link is probably getting it set up right, have it well mapped and don;t play about with the settings and you won't have any probs.

FRST fuel usage : When running at 10psi i got approx 25mpg
The FRST turbo starts to work at approx 2500rpm and runs out at 5500rpm
Weakness : gearbox, especially with mileage. I had to fix mine after going stage1, but that was with 100k

I have a 165 chip and am hitting 15psi peak holding 13psi on standard I/C and fuelling and get 140bhp @ wheels, which makes approx 165bhp @ fly. I am probably hitting the max for the fuelling and definitely hitting the max for the I/C.
I recommend you get a Mongoose exhaust system = £330 approx. these exhausts are very un-restrictive un-like others, no names mentioned

Thanks for all help!

I hit 167bhp with a 165 chip, Magnex Exhaust, Filter, Dump Valve.
11.5psi isn't really enough to take advantage of the chip. I was running 13.5psi, and all seemed fine...although i have a T3 on now, and the bloody car isn't set up yet
If u want a loud exhaust, get a system with only the back box, no bafflers inbetween.

Dont be expecting 165bhp with all the mods you have listed, as you might be dissapointed as i was when i had mine checked last year before having some more mods done.
I had a 165 superchip, k & n 57i, s/s exhaust system, dump valve, stage 2 head and a kent cvh35k fast road cam and only read 135bhp@wheels about 160 at the flywheel@13psi. Shouldnt be maxing more than this on that chip with a standard cooler.
Now i have added a power engineering fully remappable chip and a set of beige injectors so should be looking at a bit more after the rollers.
