Never heard of them until you just mentioned. Looking on their site now but it's rather confusing. There's a 190 Cosworth upgrade for the Fez ST, yet doesn't involve exhaust?

Big price tag too.

My guess is that for proper tuning, you won't be Mountune. Otherwise you'd probably have seen/heard more about Pumabuild already

I would avoid pumabuild personally. Just get ur own exhaust filter then remap from jamsport or a generic map like dream science. If ur getting cams and inlet do the jamsport custom map after that.

Pumabuild are all right, it's PumaSpeed that got a bad rep few years back for some dodgy maps and false dyno prints not to mention shoddy work completed.

That being said, they did endeavour last year and this to improve on their ratings and make an effort to prove opinions wrong, their most recent progress was joining up to STOC to get a better customer relations flowing.

Pumabuild i think are also registered to fit the Mountune kits, i've seen a few posted photo's and updates on their facebook fitting their callipers and 260 kits to focus STs.

The only criticism i can give them is they are not as well organised as Jam-Sport are.

Pumabuild are ok, I get my st serviced there, they fitted my eibachs and flexi as well and are always busy/ lots of sts there
Probably wouldn't go for one of their kits though, mountune are a solid choice or get it all seperate and get a custom map
