That’s a good feeling when she starts after a turbo swap. Well done sir!
Looking forward to seeing the mapping side of it, good job👍
Nice turbo and sounds sweet. Look forward to the mapping and nice sunny weather drives
great, glad you're going on Steve
Great real content!!!! Love it!!! Thank you Steve👍👍👍👍
Nice to see you back 😊
Great video Steve, enjoyed watching it!!.
Epic video as per Steve lots of useful tips can't wait for the mapping to see what you make...😎👌
Yes mate, cant wait for you to hit the track and dyno with it
Great video Steve! I'm very excited to see the next episode of your progress with map etc. I want this turbo, that whistle is sensational...even at low revs 👂👀😁
Well done steve......great vid looking forward to the next one
Steve,I could tell by that smile on your face at the beginning your getting pretty exited about this !😀👍
Love the sound from the s280 you dont get that with other turbos for the fiesta, great job steve enjoy once mapped.
Thanks Steve great video 📹 👍
Nice 22 minute long video,great stuff Steve!
Your always thinking on your feet Steve ..and overcome obstacles you meet..one thing we both share in common..don’t ever give up on a challenge esp when it comes to cars and their problems
Same about the videos being less like they where. But you have to do what you wanna do Steve. i will still be watching no matter what, along with everyone else. Look forward to seeing the fiesta with the bigger timmy!
You had me laughing on this one. I was reliving my own issues watching this. Of course my battery was dead too after spending all that time putting it back together. It’s not like we were nervous enough as it is to start it LOL. Excited to see what you think of the turbo. I absolutely LOVE it. My car is an animal
Great job there! I want to fit a bigger turbo to one of my cars along with bigger injectors, intercooler and what have you but having gotten around to it just yet since i know it will need a clutch so I’ll find a better one if I can and do the modifications after fitting it. Should see about 90/100bhp gain after the mods and map🤷♂️.
Good to see yours going and when you drive it what difference it’s made!
Amazing, I was literally just reading about the s280 Turbo and then what you know I get a notification from TH-cam..... Is this a sign 🤔🤔
Great video as always Steve, looking forward to having you up soon for tuning 😀
I bet you were watching and thinking, no why is he doing that lol
Bloody awesome, can’t wait to see this on the dyno.
P.s CTEK trickle chargers are spot on 😉
Yay! I have been looking forward to this! Sending greetings and compliments from Ohio USA.
Thank you. 👍
Nice job of that that bigger 10mm bolt left over looks like one of the 3 original cat to turbo bolts
Another good video mate well done keep up the good work 👍😁
Great video Steve 👍
Fantastic Steve mate going to shift like rocket once its dialled in :)
So glad to see this video. Seen all your others & ironically (currently on v1 Peron 270whp) I can't decide on s280/x57/vt330r so this video which I'll watch in full tomorrow may solve my dilemma & help make my mind up! Had a spin in a local guys vt330r today which was impressive but somehow got a feeling the s280 may be the king 🤴😁
I think the vt330r spools a bit faster than an s280.
This is very good vid very well done.👍👍👍
Spot on, gonna save this for tomorrow.
Same here I'm watching now
Oh yes we have all done it Steve were we have stood there scratching our heads, also worth making the gap wider to 5mm for piece of mind but wouldn't have thought it would expand too much.
My fiesta was funny starting when the battery was low, the starter gave it a go but couldn't do it, then I just held the ignition on and it just managed to fire
Love your content Geez!
I might just do my s280 installation from the top after watching this. I know dropping the subframe makes it easier, but it’s a lot of extra work haha
Not been here for ages, this has drawn me back in lol
Looking forward to the next video when it gets the map put on 👍🏾😆
Haha I’ve been in that scenario many of times with Bolts left Steve it’s the worst! 😂 Looking forward to seeing what power it makes 👍
Done a couple of these 1.6/1.5 ecoboost turbo's the only thing that can leak is the coolant banjo bolt. Once you get them up to temperature the coolant banjo bolt tightens up a bit more.
Coolants are not banjo on the s280 so hopefully il be fine
I somewhat have a good memory but I made it a habit that when I work on my car I put them on off brand ziplock bags from a dollar store and mark the bags where I removed the bolts and screws
Glad to see you bk and with a bloody big smile ..what's them bags called on your mirror
Condensation or moisture bags I think. Thanks.
The world needs more of kids being outside, involved and getting dirty. Nice to see.
lovely jubbly!
Hi Steve, hope all is well. Just been flicking through some of your videos. Have I just noticed you’ve got around a problem which I have got by opening up the top strut mounts to gain access for Adam camber. I hope this makes sense. I’m just being a knob. Many thanks, Simon.
omg u where so lucky with the find of that bolt lol
Just a suggestion, try bagging and tagging, since I started doing that I quit having left over bolts.
😂
Do it for Dale
🤔 that outro sounds somewhat familiar...
😂
Nice one Steve, good to see you enjoying tinkering and getting the car sorted.
Stolen it from the best channel on TH-cam if course. Hell yeah brother. 👌
@@Sparkplugsteve Fire me up with them bald eagles...
After running the car FBO on stock turbo I can tell you that after your throw this turbo on the car is legit fast. FBO stock turbo felt fast but, s280 will make the car actually fast.
I was advised to get a new boost controller , they have been known to fail when going big boost ..
Get mine mapped tomorrow by Trs at Trs head quarters 🙂
Say hi for me. 😜
Hi Steve
Exciting times!! That's wicked mate.
New shirt idea
Older "N" Faster
This is going to beast some cars on track. You going to look into WMI?
What's wmi?
@@Sparkplugsteve water meth injection.
No I won't be getting that. 300bhp track map will do me.
@@Sparkplugsteve All good. It isn't just for added power though, tuning with WMI will help to prevent predetonation and charge temps which in turn will help with reliability on track. Enjoy the big boy power!
This is why longitudinal engines are much easier to work on!
Class
Not many will get the do it for dale 🤣 #3 #cleetus
Nice, i just fitted a 5triple1 to my car and loving it. That big bolt you had left over with the washer attached is a cat to turbo bolt, or it looks like it anyway.
It was too big to be that bolt.insril don't know where it cam from lol.
Odd bolt looks like an st170 exhaust manifold bolt
I hope everyone else caught the cleetus outro lol 😂
Only 2 of you commented so far 👌
@@Sparkplugsteve only the real ones know 😂 love the videos mate excited to see it on the dyno !!
Be interesting to see if you have any problems with the bov adapter not sealing correctly to the gfb bov. Won't know until its under load. Hopefully not though.
Yeah let's hope not lol
One of my catch tank kits, the standard ford pcv pipe is £23 from ford so not a massive expense should you decide to cut the existing pipe
Not sure I'd want to cut into the block to fit a turbo
I got quoted £43 for the pipe. 😱 It was one of yours yes. I tweaked the layout as I wasn't keen on the way the 90 degree elbow fitted. Have you thought about making them with Ford connectors supplied and making full length hoses so their one piece and not a join onto the factory pipe?
makes a nice whistle that, where did you get the moisture bag from?
I buy them from a local pound shop or home bargains. Thanks.
Brother, been watching your videos randomly. See, I'm not sure if your theme for DIY is using unconventional tools but I'm a big fan of doing that also back in the day till Harbor Freight store where they sell discounted tools and now I just use them. Not the best brand of tools some are just for one time use because they break quick.
Wow, you got yours! Lol im still “4-6 weeks out” -_-
I was the same. They take a while.
@@Sparkplugsteve for sure. I expect to have mine in by spring, and also to drop my subframe when i do so. Appreciate the video and insight you give for those who have yet to install. Cheers man
Cool 👍🇫🇷
Looks like we will be playing catch up against you and Raj now buddy 😉
My car is still heavy so you will be OK. 😁
@@Sparkplugsteveour weight reduction is nulled by Darren’s heavy frame 😂
Did you modify the block for this?
Steve!! Youre the man. Yes Adam is THE MAN over here in the states. He is the probably one of the top 3 Ecoboost tuners here for our platform. You British lads can find him on youtube by searching S280 Fiesta ST and his tuning shop is called TunePlus. His install video is really good. Lots of info. Steve is wish I knew you needed a S280 I've had one brand new sitting in the box for over a year now lol. I've just never installed it. I want to but just haven't found the time. Lol. Even with the pandemic. Damn it. Maybe i can sell it? Hit me up on insta if anyone is looking for a kit. I even have the Race dp from Peron and a turbosmart 14lb wastegate and TS Bov. @RMS15pbfist
In the aviation industry, you lose a screw or a 10mm, you’re looking at a downed aircraft. Never let that screw go, especially on a turbo car, their intakes are just as sensitive to FOD (foreign object damage) as jet engines!
You may want to invest in a cheap articulating borescope, I bought one for $129 usd and it’s essential to my tool box now.
My car is a 1.6 Sport in 2012 and there is no turbo.. is it possible if I want to put in a turbo sir..
Hi Steve, watch loads of your vids, just a quick question, what’s the reason for the s280 turbo, over you picking a x47r in previous vids at pumaspeed you said you were gonna go that way, unless I’ve missed something, looking at going stage 3 just wanting to make the right decision thanks steffan
Hi that was 2 yrs ago I done the x47r video. A lots changed since then and I wanted a turbo that would blow my engine up. That's exactly what I got lol
@@Sparkplugsteve lol, so if you where me who likes my engine in one peace, what turbo would you recommend? 👍
Steve. Did you do prime the turbo first with oil?
I considered it but no in didn't. There was a fair bit in it from factory though.
Put an rs3 engine in it and enjoy
How do you like the itg intake? I just bought it for my fiesta! Is it an easy install?
Yeh I'm happy with it.
if I am honest, I would rather a hybrid turbo setup. I really don't like the why the divert valve fits, and over heating problems on the other sensor is never a good thing. Will be interesting to see what it like to drive on track, should be plenty fun.
If heat is your worry then hybrid turbo is a bad choice. S280 will produce less heat
Hybrid turbos create alot more heat
The overheating on the boost solenoid is more of a theory we have. There is nothing that suggests that the s280 would make the boost solenoid itself hotter than any other hybrid turbo, but the heat tape from our tests appears to have worked. The turbo itself will run a lot cooler than any other hybrid...
lad
What catch can is that ? My mishi one is awful requires headlight out to empty it. That looks like a much better setup
I forgot to show it but I have a drain valve on the underside and a pipe down to the floor so I can drain without removing at all. The cans are cheap ebay ones for around £12
@@Sparkplugsteve Ahhh brilliant cheers for the reply, where are the lines from ? Mine would be to short to have it the same way you have yours currently so would require new lines
@@TallBoy3095 I bought it used so not sure where the hose came from sorry.
Can you drive it normally without any issues without the map?
It must be mapped. I can drive it as it is but have to keep the boost very low.
Little question for you Steve. An x57r has come up for sale, been on a car for 500 miles & is at good money compared to new. Saw your vid at Pumaspeed where you had a ride in their x57r car, what a glorious whistle it makes! Would you advise me to go for it? Will be fitting injectors too & cap power at 380bhp as on stock internals. Thoughts appreciated 👍
I don't know much about them but iv been told they map well and make good power. If it's a bargain then maybe its the turbo for you.
@@Sparkplugsteve Saw your very entertaining video at Pumaspeed & you had a trip in Dan's car powered by the x57r, which you were greatly enthused about. Think x57r is capable of 450+ on forged internals (as s280 is also) along with fitment of injectors/big turbo boost pipes & correct mapping. Looking forward to it & of course your s280 map/power specs. Regards.😊
Yes at the time I don't think the x57 was publicly available. I'm not sure exactly what model dabs car had but I think there's been a few revisions since then but iv lost track with them to be honest.
@@Sparkplugsteve yes there's so many around now & lots of talk which's best blah blah, some professing theirs is etc. Basically s280, x57r/x58, 5111, bb04, vt330r all do similar pushing more air in/exhaust out but biggest decision is how far does one take the bhp to on stock internals? Do you have a ball park figure you want to achieve for your s280? I'm kind of hovering around the 380bhp as absolute max with injectors. My 270whp is already quick enough but us boys always pushing the envelope lol. Excited.
what bhp is it now?
Not had it mapped yet.
What's the bag of water having from the mirror about?
Catches moisture in the vehicle when it’s not being used for long periods of time and stops mould growing 👍🏻
@@scottlaaa Thanks, I thought it was. It looks like one of those ones that you can use in the wardrobe. I asked as I use a black pad, I wondered how effective this one is.
Was the old turbo a standard??
Yes it is
So after a remap what power output you looking at?
I will have a few boost levels. Track map will be around 300bhp and an occasional fun map roughly 330bhp. I'm not chasing the biggest numbers really.
@@Sparkplugsteve I’ve got a standard st in blue it’s plenty for the road 330bhp would be so much fun
What happened to pumaspeed....???
I haven't heard? What's happened?
You left your keys in the car at the end so your door wouldn't honk its horn twice when you closed it
I'm assuming your not a UK model owner? We get a warning sound inside but not the horn blowing.
@@Sparkplugsteve you assume right. US model and there is no way to stop the horn from going off when you close the door unless you stick your keys inside
It’s the battery and stop charging phone in car and battery will be fine please buy a good one 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣👍🍩
What Oil type did you use with this turbo, 5W20 or 5W30?
5w 30
@@Sparkplugsteve thank you
Steve hello, from your experience porting the stock manifold with the S280 turbo has any benefits? Did you notice any gains in spooling?
@Andres Alvis I don't think it makes much difference to be honest.
@@Sparkplugsteve Thank you Steve
Is it possible to drop a turbo in my 1.4 my7 2011 pfl?
Anything is possible but at what cost. Be easier and cheaper to fit a st180 engine.
@@Sparkplugsteve had a look into that and I think it’ll work out hassle free to trade in.... would you advice to get one that’s already mapped or categorised ? Appreciate you replying to me! Love your content !!
Depends on your budget whether you buy a category one or not. If you can afford it get a clean one. Thanks.
When fettled in thats gonna move well, why buy a yaris gr when a fezzy is better on tarmac in my eyes 4wd is for forests.
Steve, at 10:27 the pipe clip is on wrong side of bulge..................have a look before you go out in the car.
Yeah don't worry about that. The bulge is from the factory pipework. It's left a permanent bulge but it's not really where the new bulge is if that makes sense. Good spot though.
Dying battery... always best to keep trying.... not :) should know better...
Why do you assume I should know better? Lower your expectations. 😜
@@Sparkplugsteve lol :) see it every winter, tight ar$es not willing to spend 50 quid on a battery, but'll wait 50 mins hoping it recovers :)
