With you increasing the power now it maybe good to check and replace if necessary the cam bucket as these wear quicker when pushing for more power. But a good video again and be good to see it with all the other goodies added.
Pumaspeed need to clean up their workshop and have a bit of a makeover, looks a bit of a state. This vid has put me right off ever using them just due to the state of the place and I was tempted as I like their website
Have to say I feel the same after seeing it, if you didn’t know anything about them and was a first time customer seeing their workshop would be walking in then straight out again.
@@Clicksystems Websites can project an illusion into your mind,ive been to 3 well known tuners Pumaspeed,Jamsport and Dreamscience,only DS lived up to the website illusion.
minty minty as a mechanic myself I would expect it to not necessarily be clean and polished but tidy and professional looking. If I turn up to a garage in that state first thing that springs to mind is if bits are thrown all over the place like that instead of being neatly placed in an organised manner are my cars parts also going to be thrown about and shoved in a heap on the floor. Most garages belonging to mechanics I know do not look like this, even dirty they are still organised and tidiness is reflective of how professional your business is seen. This is why dealers are so clean and polished generally.
minty minty well it’s true, do you think they could charge £100+ an hour without being that way? I have nothing personally against pumaspeed, I’ve purchased from them and my customers have purchased from them. But if I was a new customer who had never used them before, never had a word of mouth recommendation then that’s how many customers would be, walk in, walk out. Because if you didn’t know any better from prior experience or word of mouth seeing all that stuff chucked on the floor you would assume when your car gets pulled apart, your pride and joy it’s parts are also going to get thrown on the floor in a heap. Only reason they are successful is word of mouth, so they don’t need to worry so much about first impressions as people go to them already knowing them. But if somebody went there without that first impressions count as it’s all somebody has to go on. No workshop should look like that, I know many do, but health and safety would also not be happy about it. I’m no hair stylist, but what’s your issue with them? I assume you don’t cut your own hair and visit a hairdresser like most people would? Might want to reconsider mocking hair stylists when you most likely go to a hair dresser for your hair cuts because wouldn’t it be a shame if they saw your derogatory comments towards them and they accidentally shaved your hair off in retaliation...
😂🤣 Minty, you seem so annoyed that someone would want a garage where their vehicle is to be serviced or upgraded to be tidy and organized. That is not the workshop of an organized mind. I take my cars to 3 garages, one a main dealer (mk3 Focus RS) as it is in warranty, one a Volvo specialist (Volvo S60R) and my track car (Megane R26) goes to a small independent garage. All of them are far tidier and less of a state than Pumaspeed which is a well known outfit that has a bigger budget than 2 of these. It looks like they are waiting for a skip to arrive and a serious premises refresh. I guess I am not a "car guy" by your reckoning as I don't want to take my cars to an unorganized hole. My vids etc of me on track at various tracks and the Nürburgring and the fact that I own 3 performance cars and am booked to 3 track days so far this year mean nothing......🤣🤣🤣 What makes you a "car guy"? Is it that you don't care what state a garage is in? Impressive.
Its what he does with our motors that would mean twice as much 2 me! & how he looks after his customers & put yr car with the right upgrades & goodies.That name has stood the test of time.If its not broke why fix it!
@@Sparkplugsteve i ordered a non res race yesterday. Will be interesting to see what the non race will sound like. Bit scared the race will be too loud for me too. Anyways, great vid as per usual
Its a good job its a track car because if it was your daily it would hard to not put your foot down and lose a couple of points. What is your daily car?
Getting this map loaded on next week, finally, with cat safe crackle hopefully. Very similar to your set up here, but mine will be cobra sports cat instead of milltek, standard cat back. What rev did the pops kick in on the crackle, around 4? Coming from a cp2 map on standard car, decent map, but for full stage 2 maxd looks way to go. Cp2 loves to rev all the way to 7k, is this map the same?
Good stuff Steve great video can I ask what made u actually change tuners (No negative arguments please chat about different tuning company’s ) I’m literally just curious why that’s all thanks. Sounds a lot better Ste 🤙👍🔥💥
Hi. I have nothing against peron tunes. The other car on stage 1 was fast and I loved it. But when I was trying to build this channel I wanted to be different and no one that I noticed on TH-cam was actively supporting pumaspeed products. Aet had B7tmy and I wanted to be different. Iv had an amazing relationship with pumaspeed so far and very happy im sponsored by then.
Spark Plug Steve ohhhh ok like I say I just was curious that’s all thanks for been honest and I love the content as I’ve said carnt wait for the next 1 👍🔥💥
Got a question for you: Ive also got the stage2r on the fist BUT mkne is insalny loud and shoots flames no matter if its the normal crackle map or the flame map whatsoever... Can I just send pumaspeed a message and they can adjust it a little bit so it wont be this mad?
So (correct me if i'm wrong) all you got those guys to do was to get the exhaust to pop and crackle?, which sounds to me like you have a spark plug or valve going out.
@@TheGalifrey Ahh I see, Tbh didn't hear much talk about the remapping, more the talking about the crackle and popping, to be fair though I was preoccupied and only half listening.
Not sure I could have made it any more clear. It's in the title, description and was mentioned in the video that the whole point of my visit was to get stage 2r. 🤷♂️
Over the top obnoxious pops and crackles are totally pointless and childish on a road car and sounds shit. There is a difference between sounding tough and sounding stupid. Glad you are liking the stage 2 tune mate. The car sounds good to me with just a couple of quieter pops.
Another great vid mate, only problem is I think it will be costing be some wonga. Been toying with Collins CP2 for a bit, my ST is out of warranty in a month. Time to get the wallet out 👍
@@turbocharged9906 Does 1R need accompanying hardware. Probably gonna get a ST200 airbox for the oem look and not as noisy as a cone. Would it work with this on an otherwise standard car? Cheers.
Please do a before and after how it feels with the gfb + on mate. I’d preferably like to know the difference with it on a stock car with an induction kit on, but never mind lol.
As far as I am aware, their original version was more of a static rev limiter at 4k, not proper launch control as it cant be done on the EU ecu's software
@@Sparkplugsteve Haha, I wish it was available however Jason is right, it would get abused then the same people would bad mouth Pumaspeed when something breaks due to their lack of mechanical sympathy
iam kinda shockt how messy and dirty there garage is and that the dont dyno after maps aswell. seen lot people who had -20 hp on there stage 2 maps the should dyno it
I had dealings with puma speed, found them completely unprofessional. I ordered a home tuning thing from them, they refunded my money, but didn't bother to contact me with why they'd done it. And then tried ordering a power upgrade, think it cost about £1600 or there abouts. Got told that they weren't able to get hold of the exhaust, so I asked for a refund. Took close to two weeks and a couple of phone calls before they admitted that they hadn't refunded the money because one of the idiots in the office had wrongly put down that it had been done. They are just a sad excuse for a business, run by cowboys
Puma speed has kids working on your car ! Then taking it on a test drive killing it and wheel spinning it . Cheers mate . Would use this company ever again and wouldn't recommend to any one .

This is very similar to my RS3 build I’m doing, I bought that from Copart too! 👍🏽
you're gonna love it once you get that milltek exhaust on there, pops are way better, but still mild. Kinda like taking a silencer off a gun :')
Better than a 3” cobra ?
School Teacher looks but road hooligan at heart!
thx for the discount , i just ordered a 2r map for my st200 ;)
Great Vid Steve, look forward to the rest! The 2R map is brilliant
Thanks. yes its great. it was a damp day so it spun the wheels in 3rd with ease.
Very cool - great call on not going for the over the top pops and bangs.

Awesome sounds from the car I’m so loving it
Great video Steve, sounds awesome, with the miltek on going to be even better,you looked like you were flying with a smile on your face😀
Thanks yes i was well pleased
Absolutely love your car. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled around the valleys for you.
always love your videos when I get the notifications
St is looking the part steve.hope to see you at one of the castle combe shows 👍👍👍
cool vid steve my cooper s has the same (ish) map and i love it cnt wait for the miltec exhaust 👌
Love those programs4 our cars._NICE NOTE STEVE'O
Hi SPS. Steve how far are you going to map upgrade ? Them engines with 100k will unlock to 475 bho. So what’s your limit ? Cool videos btw
Hello steve Nice st and how many psi your car in stage 2? Thanks

Interesting looking place 😁 with some nice cars 😁
Awesome as always
Hi Steve great vid. I’m thinking of getting this for my stock car. Will I notice a difference for the money being spent? Thanks
You will defo notice it
Steve, what milltek did you pick up? Non res i assume? Race or non race?
Non race non res.
@@Sparkplugsteve i ordered a non res race yesterday. Will be interesting to see what the non race will sound like. Bit scared the race will be too loud for me too. Anyways, great vid as per usual

Sick video as always but my OCD is out of control with tools all over the place
Its a good job its a track car because if it was your daily it would hard to not put your foot down and lose a couple of points. What is your daily car?
This one for a short time until. Other one is fixed.

It's about 6900 rpm on 2r and yes only pops above 4k.sometimes little burble below but no loud popping.
What do you think of 2R with standard cat?
Good choice steve.all those loud bangs would do is give you a black flag on those track days!
Great video as always Steve. When are you going to replace the dash In the other Fiesta? Lawrence from Heathrow.
Could be a few weeks at least. Got so much to do on the track car before the end of the month.
Good insight thanks.

You need to speak to them sorry I can't help unfortunately.
You need 100 octane fuel if you push or 95 is enough?
Does the tune make your car louder?
So (correct me if i'm wrong) all you got those guys to do was to get the exhaust to pop and crackle?, which sounds to me like you have a spark plug or valve going out.
He had a stage 2 remap, the crackle was an "optional extra".
He got the stage 2r remap aswell, as he said in the description it's the most powerful map that Pumaspeed do for the standard turbo.
@@TheGalifrey Ahh I see, Tbh didn't hear much talk about the remapping, more the talking about the crackle and popping, to be fair though I was preoccupied and only half listening.

@@Sparkplugsteve Sorry mate. What did the tune do?, give the engine more fuel?, ignition timing? etc?.
How much horsepower will the stock transmission hold
Steve would you be able to to a gfb Vs standard noise test? Unsure weather to get a dual port or a gfb 👍
Just a slightly louder than stock noise.
The turbosmart units sound crap and are unreliable, seen plenty of issues with them.
Gfb say it doesn't alter the noise at all? Just more reliable boost control.
Over the top obnoxious pops and crackles are totally pointless and childish on a road car and sounds shit. There is a difference between sounding tough and sounding stupid. Glad you are liking the stage 2 tune mate. The car sounds good to me with just a couple of quieter pops.
Another great vid mate, only problem is I think it will be costing be some wonga. Been toying with Collins CP2 for a bit, my ST is out of warranty in a month. Time to get the wallet out 👍
go for it. get spending your cash. best bang for buck is stage one as it works with standard cat and intercooler
If planning on a remap, deffo go for Pumaspeeds 1R over CP2, sampled both and even the 1R is miles ahead in the way it drives etc
Good to hear that. iv not tried 1r but heard great things about it.
@@Sparkplugsteve its basically a softer version of the 2R, still pulls to the redline however its tamer.
@@turbocharged9906 Does 1R need accompanying hardware. Probably gonna get a ST200 airbox for the oem look and not as noisy as a cone. Would it work with this on an otherwise standard car? Cheers.
Good vid as always
and like yourself I am not a fan of the loud "pop and bang" maps like the way that sounds as is keep up the vids
What was that weird rattle on start up at around 3:42?
i heard it to. i dont know what it was but, its not done it before or after that.
Why was it bad for the CAT? I thought it was a cat safe crackle map?
We experimented with the full crackle map
Please do a before and after how it feels with the gfb + on mate. I’d preferably like to know the difference with it on a stock car with an induction kit on, but never mind lol.
i will do but as far as i know it doesnt change any sounds just gives reliable boost compared to stock valve.
Spark Plug Steve yeah that’s what I’d like to know mate, how the boost feels after fitting 👍🏼
What's the song called at around the 1:30 mark??
Just watched the video Iv got pumaspeed stage 1r this has made me want to go 2r could you let us know what mods you need for this map
Decat or sport cat, bigger intercooler and Air filter👍
Got an intake got intercooler in the shed Im sure you have a video where you fitted the intercooler I’ll folllow that thank you
Older the fiddle better the tune._Sounds wicked m8._
Any news on your newly acquired fiesta?
Nothing to update since the last videos. Hopefully get some more work done on it this week.
Good sound for a 1.6 not a fan of the aftermarket exhaust sound on these cars, stock with a sports car sounds good to me not too over the top
yeh im happy with the stock exhaust. just a 50mm pipe is not good for power so its gotta go.
@@Sparkplugsteve hmm fair i thought i saw somewhere that the stock exhaust with a sports/decat would do 300 easily
Much different than stage 1 ?
No not really much difference
Boys in there toys lol 😎😎😎
How do you get on with your insurance company with all the mods?
Easy. I'm with Adrian flux so all Mods declared.
whats more fun an ep3 or fiesta st @sparkplugsteve
For me it's a fiesta. Turbo is much better than na but many others will disagree.
How did you get them mad bangs at the beggining
That wasn't my car
What is the rev limit on the stage 2R map???
6900 ish off memory
He's a Proper Petrolhead aint he steve'o._
What boost psi is it running now mate
Under load on 4th iv seen 24psi on my guage. I think that's more than it should be though so maybe guage. Lower years its about 22 to 23psi
mine runs 21-22 on maxd1R so id imagine it would be 23ish at 2R
Hitting the rev limiter too much spoils it a bit!
You can't beat a car that's got all the whistles and bangs.
U forgot to pick up the x57 or at least an x47r 😂😂
Jason can I have the launch control pretty plz 😁
As far as I am aware, their original version was more of a static rev limiter at 4k, not proper launch control as it cant be done on the EU ecu's software
