Default Ben's Ecoboost 1.0 Build

Just picked up an almost new Fiesta Ecoboost 1.0 (ex-demo had 4000k's).
My wife has a company car (Kuga) which we use 99% of the time (free gas).
I'm starting a new job, so I've given back my trusty company car and since I haven't paid for gas for the past 7 years and I'm only driving it to work and back I wanted something cheap to run, hence the 1.0L

I never imagined such a little car could make me smile so much every time I put my foot down. They're hilarious!

Starting to put together a shopping list and doing some of the basics.
The goal is to embarrass the father in-law's VE Commodore with a 1.0.
I think if I can get to 180hp it should give it a scare...

The first and easiest upgrade were the wheels. The stock car spun up the factory continentals waaaay to easy (even the wife said so). So these are 17x7 215's with some sticky rubber, much better!
