Ford’s Sixth Generation Fiesta ST was announced at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2012. When the facelifted Fiesta ST was introduced into North America for the 2014 model year it became part of Ford’s Global B-car program.
The ST’s 1.6-litre EcoBoost turbocharged engine puts out 182 PS (134 kW; 180 hp) with 177 lb⋅ft (240 N⋅m) of torque and up to 200 PS on overboost for a maximum of 15 seconds. That’s a lot of power for a small car, but there’s even more availble by changing to a Fidanza Aluminium Flywheel.
A Fidanza lightweight flywheel is simple to install when the clutch is replaced and will bring the following benefits:
• Faster throttle response and quicker acceleration
• Additional horsepower to the wheels (reduced parasitic losses)
• Smoother, faster shifting
• Easier braking, better slowing (due to reduced rotational mass)
• Reduced clutch wear and improved efficiency (from better heat dissipation)
• Cost savings and longevity (thanks to Fidanza’s replaceable green friction plate – there is no need
to replace the entire flywheel when worn)
• Potential for increased fuel economy (if you can keep your foot off the gas!)
• Quality and reliability (made in the USA from top grade materials)
A Fidanza lightweight flywheel for the Ford Focus ST can be ordered as part number 186161 and retails at USD$434.27 plus shipping and tax.
