Hi all, What other tuning is available to break the 200bhp mark other than a supercharger? I want a naturally-aspirated engine. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Cheers

you would be looking at internal engine changes, head/pistons/valves etc OR wait for MT's top up 200bhp kit - very likely to be what I have said.

Dave from MT told me not long ago one more level of tune was in the works - what other info you got about the 200Bhp top up Steve?

I've spoken to Dave at MT today and advised there's currently a project underway to release another stage.
One of the lads there has a Fiesta ST testing various parts etc. Apparently, if proven to be a success, an inlet manifold will be part of the next stage. However, I don't think the 60mm throttle body will be in this kit as Dave has negative views regarding this.
Dave can't promise if and when the next stage will be released as it's down to when the tester has enought time to complete this.
Hope that helps answer your question.
Cheers

More than likely Alex, probably a more costly way of doing it but can't see them saying no to doing it Been to the place where they tune them, the guy was showing me videos of an F1 car on their rollers Said they had the new RS in there but were having issues with it, that was quite a while ago now though
