What happens when you massage the turbocharger on the Ford Fiesta ST to take it from 197bhp to approximately 285bhp - or more than you'll find in its bigger brother, the Focus ST? Turbo Technics Fiesta ST 285 first drive review
It feels quite content to headbutt its 7000rpm limiter, too, at no point feeling strained, while also remaining perfectly tractable at low revs, with no hesitation or roughness.
While the turbo conversion is brutally effective, it’s right at the limit of what the chassis can handle. On the cold winter’s day we drive it, it's well over it. Things improve as the road dries out, and the traction control actually does a good job of managing things if you just want to get from A to B, but it’s always going to be a raucous experience with plenty of torque-steer and one that will be frustrating during the colder months.Turbo Technics sells the kit through tuners such as Collins Performance, who bundle the turbo with all the required supporting modifications in one package for just over £3000, excluding fitting.
