Cool dude in the Ford that was one hell of a run y’all definitely need to do another race when homeboy gets his other mods on his Ford #HondaGang FTW 🙌🏻
Love what K24’s can do against boosted motors.. High revving and screaming VTec.. with that being said.. I’m sad he just barely took out a stage 1 Fiesta.. wanted to run him in my Stage 2 Focus 🥵 lol. Love the content Gerb! Boost that K24!! You’ll be 👌🏽
You must be young. Lol. Gerb is a really nice guy and he purposely sandbagged and left at low rpm out of Vtec to give the Fiesta a chance and make the race look close. Gerb could have left him by lengths
@@elmatador4759 I am young.. but I’m not understanding why my age matters. Either way.. thats a relief that he sandbagged.. the FiST is a really slow car on just stage 1 and I was hoping maybe Gerbs tune was fucking his car up lol.. either way, if Rona lets up I plan on contacting Gerb for a run this summer. thanks for the insight on the sandbagging lol
Great video dude! Both you guys did a great job 👏 I’ve been a Honda fan since I was like 7 years old and I have enjoyed your videos since you only had a couple hundred subscribers. Look how many you have now bro, nearly 20,000!!😮
As an x owner of a stock 07 SI and a current owner of a stock 17 FiST, I can tell you the FiST is faster and has much more usable torque. Once you add mods to either car, of course that changes the variables. Also not using winter tires helps lol. Definitely miss my 8th gen and was looking for one in good shape for years.Its hard to settle on a used one when you drove yours off the showroom floor with only 3 milea on it!! I had a Colbalt in between the 8th gen and the FiST and got totalled by a truck who didnt check his mirror before switching lanes as I was passing him. At that point I needed a car immediately and couldn't wait for an acceptable 8th gen or even 9th gen to come around. So I ended up with the FiST. No regrets, great car, better torque, way more fuel efficient than the 8th gen if you stay off the turbo. But, the 8th gen will always have a place in my heart and I have 10 years of great memories in one. I watch Gerb because his early videos reminds me of the excitement I had when discovering how awesome and underrated of a vehicle it is even in stock form. I now live vicariously through Gerb. However, if you have the means and come across a FiST in good shape, I highly recommend you get one!
I can definitely agree with you on that. He let me drive the little st and I have to tell you, the torque and handling are amazing! I love my 8th gen, but it has a hard time competing against turbo cars. I even watch my own older vids on when I first bought the car. I appreciate you though! And after driving the fiesta, It made me want one! Maybe when I start my new career in the next year. I will have something turbo ;)
@@TheGerbsteve If you can pull it off where you can get something turbo AND keep the 8th gen - then go for it. But if you have to get rid of the 8th gen to get a new car - I can promise you - you will enjoy your new car, but you will miss hitting that vtech bouncing off the limiter at 8k!!!!! Good luck and thanks for all the awesome content!!!
Hell yeah... im in the middle of the swap on ma 8th gen. K24 ... eventually turbo it. Keep it up man really good content n enjoy watchn it. Never stop wrenchn'
Hey man, I just bought a civic si 2008. This thing rips! its has some mods but still NA. Kinda curious what it makes on the dyno. Anyway, I think my K20Z3 would test your K24. Its is also a coupe but red.
He should have left the factory aluminum wheels on it, my guess is they are lighter. Less unsprung weight = better acceleration. The Fiesta makes a GREAT rally car. 2004 Ford Crown victoria Cop car.(Borla H pipe cat back exhaust, a drop in K and N air filter... no tune).. let race! That way folks know how fast their cars are compared to an older cop car.. (Like if you want to see that folks.) Edit: ( Still waiting to hear back from Gerb)
Gerb can you try and race a Scion FR-S, Toyota 86, Subaru BRZ, or some of the other main competitors. I got myself a Jetta sport, I'm planning on getting a tune sometime soon where it gives me 70+ hp and around 100TQ+. Great videos bro!
He can run e30 tune without the aftermarket intercooler. I was dizzy tuned e30 with stock intercooler. Set catalogs back to Jason at dizzy and he said my car was running flawlessly. He’s the one that told me stock IC is fine
I wish I was closer to you I would definitely call you out I also have a white fiesta st my build is a bit different the only thing left I can do is big turbo, injectors, and flex kit to go from e30 to full e
Ran a 2015 Ford St in my wife’s FG2. He had stage 2 tune, intake. I pulled over 1/2 a car on him by the quarter with a 30mph start. Mods are, FBO k20z3 with RDX throttle body and vitviper tune.
Def not a fiesta, I would’ve bussed the fiesta. They’re slow as hell fbo I put busses on in my wrx and the Si is close from a 40roll. Look up my insta vids on there nothing to hide. Thatbluekawi
Pitty you guys don't get the best Focus ST over the water lol. 5pot and sounds nasty also be a more suited race. Although I'm fully tuned out and run 400bhp. It won't be as quick as a k20 at 350 most likely as power to weight but with heated leather Recaros it helps here in Scotland lol👌🏻👌🏻🤣
Your lucky your in the states, I'd race race you in my 1984 Mitsubishi GSR Cordia Turbo 15 psi 300fwhp 950kg Antilag launch control and boost by gear with Bridgestone potenza re003's . If only you were in Australia .
I'd slap a nice little supercharger on it before you tried hunting me down. My k24a would be pushing 390 or so hp.. we will see how you do against that.
@@TheGerbsteve Then I would just add 750cc injectors set my boost by gear for 10psi 1st 15psi 2nd and raise 3rd 4th and 5th to 20psi giving it 340fwhp which would be plenty to gap a 390hp 1300kg civic All while on stock rods and pistons 😎
either your tune is off or your engine is at minimum health. you should be pulllinnggggg on that ST. Watch my video i race a focus ST with a healthy k20z3 only intake and exhaust i ended ahead by a bumper by 4th gear
My boy gerb hit her with the "how you doin 😏" lmaoo
lmaoooooo
Damn, that was a good race. Looks like the longer gears helped in the FG2
Cool dude in the Ford that was one hell of a run y’all definitely need to do another race when homeboy gets his other mods on his Ford

That fiesta moves about twice as much as i expected 🤯
You guys, I’m proud of your build. 😏 I was so happy Gerb got to leave us with another episode today, was really looking forward to it. 😎🔥
That dude in the fiesta looks like a Tweaker lol.. Just playing.. good race brother. I love seeing fun races.
It’s what I said when I saw him lol
K24 is strong 💪
ST might be stronger lol

Gerb your gear roll on this race was too low. Take advantage of each rpm range! Nonetheless good runs!
Yeah 4th gear at a 60 roll?
Facts lol
I was just the same thing how this guy race so much and still not understand what gear he should be in.
as a fiesta st owner i gotta say they are one of a kind. best sub 20k car to buy
They are definitely up there.. Loved driving this one, felt like a go-cart
Hey man, I just bought a civic si 2008. This thing rips! its has some mods but still NA. Kinda curious what it makes on the dyno. Anyway, I think my K20Z3 would test your K24. Its is also a coupe but red.
Very accurate butt dyno on that fiesta dude.
Shocked the shit outta me....sti owner stage 1 pro tune 300 whp very nice
Everything good , i like it when the camera was recording inside the fiesta... seeing the fg2
That was my favorite angle too 💪🏼
Damn boi your civic sounds like a beast 🔥🔥🔥🔥I can’t wait for more mods and of course videos 💯😎
You made me laugh when you called out every one I got hyped Let's Go Gerb

(Like if you want to see that folks.)
Edit: ( Still waiting to hear back from Gerb)
They weight about the same, 15 inch aluminium wheels or magnesium will be alot better for acceleration and less rotation weight
@@allanalfaro1384 I'm taking about the Ford Fiesta. It is on steel wheels.
@@johnnyturbo8460 yeah the 17 inch stock wheels and the 15 steel wheels weight about the same, I weighted them before changing it on my fiesta
@@allanalfaro1384 cool. Do you remember the exact weight of them? I never weighed mine.
Gerb can you try and race a Scion FR-S, Toyota 86, Subaru BRZ, or some of the other main competitors. I got myself a Jetta sport, I'm planning on getting a tune sometime soon where it gives me 70+ hp and around 100TQ+. Great videos bro!
Gerb said “how you doing “😅😂
Your k24 needs a pro tune now. It’ll be way quicker and take advantage of your new bolt ons
Little Ford turbo was like noooooooooooooo monicaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
That little Ford was pretty quick
Good races bro! It’s neck and neck, and the gearing does the rest.
K24 is beast. If you put a turbo on it it would be insane.
That BOV sounds dope
I said the same thing haha 🤙🏼
Idk how late u shift but in my opinion It sounds like u shift a bit too early shift around 7800 rpm
My phones gonna die, I’ll watch the rest of this video later haha
He can run e30 tune without the aftermarket intercooler. I was dizzy tuned e30 with stock intercooler. Set catalogs back to Jason at dizzy and he said my car was running flawlessly. He’s the one that told me stock IC is fine
Gerb any thoughts on turbo? I have the K24 in my '08 but not anything else. Suggestions?
Oh yeah, but I just don't want to drop the money on a kit right now. Maybe in the future.
@@TheGerbsteve Is there any you recommend or like?

yeeeee gerbachino get it !!!
I want to see you race focus st ate my b20v up on top end .
I’ll try too, but they make insane torque
Hey man what gearbox you using for your k24?
He's using the original factory transmission of the 8gen SI with the K24 motor
What’s done to the si?

10-20 roll is where the fiesta shines. It’ll hang with the focus until about 60 lol
I’d say 30-40. I’m all spin on 20 rolls. I’m tuned on e30 though.
U should race a mk6 gti id race u myself but I’m all the way up In Canada lol sick car though I used to have an fg2
I’m racing a stage 1 gti Sunday 😎... thanks man. I love my fg2 & k24, but there is definitely wayyyyy faster cars out there
K24!!
I think I recognize that location. Is it Newtown? Exit 10?
It sure is! 😎
Dang, that was a good race!
Try my focus
Your civic is sounding really good dude
Not bad for a back yard build lol 🙏🏼
Pulling DUBS again! Nice shifts Gerb!
1.6 vs 2.4 lol when he shifts tho he dies a bit every time until he regains boost pressure you would eat him with the little amount of boost lol

I’m selling mine 😁
@@TheGerbsteve how much you want bro
Shoot me an offer. Full longblock, higher miles, just needs accessories.
