volvo 2.5 turbo 5 pot lump :cool1:

Lukeus101 06-08-12 08:53 PM

Makes an almost as good noise as a KV6...almost

Ritchy 06-08-12 08:57 PM

make an amazing noise, the rumbles and pops are awesome, also theres a pipe that goes from the intake into the cabin....just so you can hear the engine better

Lukeus101 06-08-12 08:59 PM

Ha, really? Thats awesome

My missus wants one of them, same colour too! However I prefer the sound of the 5 pot in the old Audi Quattro better ;)

Ritchy 06-08-12 09:15 PM

they spent a lot of money on the exhaust system as well just to get it to sound right, i love them, right enough wouldnt have a orange one, not that i dont like them just not the colour for me, very reliable too very few issues on them, spark plugs can be a mare to do if you havent done them before but once you know how its just a bit of a strip, might be worthwhile having the pollen filter changed at some point too, its meant to be done yearly on ford servicing, but some techs seem to find them too hard to do and dont do them, personally find them a **** case and have never not changed one, but changed plenty of bogging ones that clearly havent been done.
if you get any knocking from the rear its likely the ARB links, apart from that enjoy the noise and the torque:D mega unit, love the engine
got the new ST in now, only got 2 litre 4 cylinder though:/

Very nice ... and I love Orange ...

archermav 06-08-12 09:22 PM

Nice, only colour to have as well.

daytona365 06-08-12 09:26 PM

Not too bad, like said previous, the pollen filter a ****** to replace and basically never gets done. I see its a ST3, which means that you cant fit a baby seat or a 3rd passenger in the back, as it has "2" rear seats, and they are sculptered...............

Not bad for a FORD, Id nver touch one :yucky::yucky:
