While it's not Challenge budget friendly, for about $2k here's a plug-n-play stand-alone setup for it.

HPtuners lists the fiesta ST as one of the supported vehicles too.

There's a guy in the UK that's supposedly cracked the factory ecm for way cheaper, like a few hundered bucks... or pounds anyway. I have a link to him somewhere. The UK guys have dove way deeper into modifying the STs than the US, that seems to be where the wealth of knowledge is

I'm interested in this. How much would it be for freight to zip code 90241 or any shipping hub near it? Also interested in the seats too but not the car. Would you happen to be interested in a 323 GTX with a bpt swap by any chance?

In reply to ef89 :

Hello. That GTX sounds cool but it kinda defeats the effort to reduce my project heap lol. I can check on shipping and get back to you

In reply to Aeromoto :

I really didn't need to know that...

In reply to Pete Gossett (Forum Supporter) :

Haha yep. I really wanted to put all this together myself, but sigh.... the hits keep coming. My Ortho doctor just told me neck surgery might be added to my list of repairs. i guess I have to face reality and scale back my hobbies 

In reply to Aeromoto :

Sounds good. I'm actually intending on trying my hand at swapping this one into a 2 since it'll physically bolt in. Only hurdle will be getting the canbus to play nicely unless I swap the entire body harness as well

In reply to ef89 :

The best quote I've gotten is $435.80 via Southeastern Freight, that's with $25 for insurance, into the terminal in Montebello, Ca.

I'm estimating 48x60x48 crate at 1000lbs. Let me know what you think. My # is 228-563-4959, feel free to text or call. Thanks  

Plugging all this stuff into a mazda2 would be sick!

Call it the "boost 2st"

I'm even more tempted now. Just gotta figure out if I go with swapping over the entire body harness or finding a stand alone and adapting the engine side to the body side. If anyone has a lead or possible solution on this, I'm all ears now.
