Hi lads n lases.

Im in the process of getting my hands on an MPS at the moment but I need to shift my fiesta RS turbo first so cant wait to get my hands on a nice modern car

There are some nice and very nice examples of MPS's around.

Problem is its like starting again, I spent so much time and money on my RS turbo I know the car inside out and with rebuilding the engine and other RS turbo engines I know them very well also, so it would be hard to get used to something that is not ford. well ford do steel a lot of Mazda engienes I suppose.

ill add some pics to get some feedback, be nice

The car made 207bhp ( print out to prove )with out the new head and with only 18psi

Im now running the new head and 23psi ( and holds ) so maybe 220 ? +

So yeah, hello guys :)

Run this place costs a bloody fortune. Welcome along and you could stay standard with 250+ and enjoy the motor but if you add a few tweaks this car is exceptionally rewarding.
I have had nearly every fast ford up to the ST and I loved them but the mps is a whole new ball game real power and masses of torque you will be glad you changed honest.
Good luck and welcome.

cheers fellas, really looking forward to moving up to a nice new car , well for me anyway. ive been living in the early 90's for a while now with having a couple Nissan gti-r's sapphiore cosworth , mk2 gti golf and a couple RS turbo's including my current car .
Well actually ive got a T reg ford escort estate turbo diesel for a daily drive

The car im after will have to be the mk1 3 mps in red, defo red as that is within budget and I think the mk2 mps has a errrr mmmmmmmmmmm a strange bonnet lol

yea ill update all my stats

The worst thing about me coming to a car make that ive never had is ill be "THAT LAD" who will be asking the boring usual questions like , how much power can this take , whats needed to get this power , how do you do this.

I apologise in advice for this, i was the one who hated the new lads on passionford.com asking the simple questions about how do i get more power .lol

Ben

I think on behalf of :mpsoc: I will apologize to you on behalf of all of us if any of your newbie threads inevitably get turned into an the usual awesome/childish banter debate on if the 3 or 6 is better (this question answers itself depending on if you draw a pension) or anything that involves a reacharound :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well done that man.
Red is the best colour for an mps and any other colour is such a waste on such a great car.
