Ford Fiesta ST MK8/Ford Puma ST Induction Kit

The FMINDK38 is the  cold air induction system for Ford’ s latest generation 1.5-liter 3-cylinder ST engine. A large amount of knowledge and knowhow from past development with all Ford models was available to us, however this is a totally new power unit and we needed to spend an extensive amount of testing time to ensure we ended up with a product that gives genuine improvements over the standard air box.      The choice of filter was decided after weeks of real-world testing and hours on the dyno experimenting with different filter options. We found that our Forge pleated filter worked best with an increase in power and torque while maintaining the best filtration properties, the build quality of the filter is  superb and carries a limited lifetime warranty. This performance filter has been designed with a high quality silicone coupling and W2 Stainless Steel hose clamps to join the anodized black machined billet velocity stack. The  filter is made using a high quality, high flow, synthetic nanofiber filtration media which is pleated to maximise surface area and in turn increase air flow. You can find a replacement filter for this kit here. The use of the velocity stack MAF  sensor housing maximises as much smooth air flow as possible. Our skilled CAD engineers have simulated different MAF  sensor housing models to create the best design for this kit. With the combination of both the filter and MAF sensor housing we saw total gains of 4bhp however this only tells half the story, if you study the data from the dyno graph you can see the increase in torque from 1500-3000 RPM and again at 4500 until the red line,   in fact at 2200 RPM gains of 20NM are achieved. This is also the same with the BHP power figures, you are seeing gains sooner and at the latter stages of the rev range, making the engine perform stronger when you need it to.    On a tuned vehicle this combination is an essential purchase as the OEM air box is found to be too restrictive to achieve the
