Wouldn't it just be easier and a hell of a lot cheaper to fit the Ecoboost 2 litre from the ST to make the Fiesta RS, rather than go to work modifying the 1.6?
Does the 2 litre fit? Makes a lot more sense. |

probably has something to do with homologation for the super 1600 or wrc cars.

Would be awesome to see.
Although with Ford Aus's inability to get anywhere with the Mountune upgrade I doubt we will ever see this locally, even if it did get the green light to be built.

Would no doubt be an awesome car but in some ways hope they don't make it having just bought a Fiesta ST myself... |

With the customer base that exists in Australia, I seriously doubt Ford OZ will be able to mount a business case. |

With the FiST at $28,990 and the FoST at $38,990, it will be interesting to see what sort of price they would want to put on the "FiRS"
