2014 Ford EcoBoost Powered Fiesta ST Turbo Street Legal K&N Performance Intake
- Oct 9, 2015
The Ford Fiesta is one of the best-selling global cars from the Ford Motor Company. In 2010 Ford released the sixth generation Fiesta and brought the Fiesta stateside for the first time since 1980. In 2013 Ford announced it was going to spice things up by adding a 1.6-liter EcoBoost turbocharged Fiesta ST to its lineup. The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST EcoBoost features overboost allowing the 1.6L turbocharged engine to make a claimed 197 horsepower when using premium unleaded fuel. A sub-compact car, like the 2014 Ford Fiesta, with 197 horsepower may seem like overkill, however the electronic traction, and stability control combined with race inspired suspension make this a fun car to drive.
