Adam is the man! I've been telling you to go to him since you got the car! Super happy for you man, saw the numbers he posted up a few days ago, that car is gonna be an absolute beast on the track!

I had my s280 professionally installed and dyno tuned for similar reasons and overall had a great experience. I was able to drive away and enjoy the car immediately….only later on I noticed it had a funny little blip/surge while cruising at highway speeds. I decided I wanted to add a bit more power and added injectors (Adams recommendation if I wanted to run e30) and also got a tune from Adam as well to hopefully address my weird surge. After doing some datalogging he recommended I adjust my preload because it was only hitting 10psi on the base map….so I I adjusted preload a couple of times and got it right and finalized tuning, and now my car runs perfectly! No weird surge now and my hpfp should ship any day allowing some more awesome power from Adam at tune+ 🤘

Love all of your videos. Looking forward to the Ranger walk around!

planning to this mod on my fist real soon, thanks for the heads up will def hit up Adam for my tuning :)

Nice video!! Thanks for explaining things the way you do. That’s what makes your videos awesome. I need to get my fusion sport on e30… but I’m so scared. Never done that before lol I’ve got the tune and bigger intercooler so I’m ready for the e30

God that mustang looks nutty. Thanks for recommending Tune+

Thanks for this video, I just bought the s280 recently and was doing research on a tuner and I’m definitely going with tuneplus. Was thinking about sticking with stratified but tuneplus seems more reliable

Dizzy flash tunes are great and they worked awesome for me, but when it was time to get an S280 I got dizzy as well because I didn’t truly research tuners before. I just went with him because I had my flash tunes. When I got to my 3rd revision he told me I reached my knock threshold and left it there, CA gas quality is trash, but I was about 250 whp and wasn’t what I was expecting. When we went to E30 the car pulled hard and noticed no corrections, on my second revision cylinder one was pulling some timing and when I looked at the logs AFR was in the 12’s at WOT and went to the 13’s at redline. I was like holy crap. Boost was at 29 PSI. I get he was trying to get me to about 300WHP but the tune didn’t feel safe. Too much stress on the engine. But anyways, since cylinder one was pulling some timing he told me to check the plug gap, and then after I said the plugs were fine he told me if I did a compression check. I wasn’t going to chase a phantom problem. So I just stopped tuning and went with tune+. On my second revision he got me to 270WHP on 91. Not once did he tell me I was knocking or chase issues that I think was related to the tune than the actual health of the engine. I’m about 300+ WHP with 30% injectors now and the car runs great. Definitely recommend Adam.

please make more video about the fiesta. really like your video. i own fiesta 1.0 ecoboost planning to swap the engine to fiesta st 1.6 turbo. now still want to know about the engine. a lot have say that this engine is very strong. i from malaysia.

I've made the same mistake with that oil line, luckily i only drove 3 meters out of the garage before the line blew off

I've been trying to sort out my S280 for 9 months. Just started tuning with Adam at tune+ now, so hopefully we can figure out what's going on. Its bleeding boost up top even on the base tune. Have pressure tested everything, new wastegate, new boost solenoid, pre load triple checked, have had 3 separate mechanics look at it as well. No one has been able to figure out what is going on with it. Honestly I just gave up on it for a few months over the summer because I was fed up with tearing it apart over and over again. Only thing I can think of at this point is the turbo itself which I hope isn't the case.

I have an S280 turbo on my fiesta tuned by dizzy. 1k miles after my final tune revision I broke the ring lands on number 2 piston doing a 1-2 pull. I’m running 29psi on a 93 tune with the stock fuel system. The car ran like a bat out of hell. I’m pulling the motor apart and hopefully I can put a set of pistons in it. I’m gonna go with Adam when I get it back running. What fuel system are you running? Auxiliary kit? Or the upgraded high pressure pump with the Bosch high flow injectors?? I want to go with the pump and injectors instead of aux kit. I want to run straight E85 once I upgrade the fuel system..but that’s down the road..right now I need to see if I can repair the damage or else I guess I’m buying a short block or long block from somewhere.. anyways thanks for the video good luck with the car. Would appreciate knowing what type of fuel system you’re using Thanks man

That sounds scary. I only changed my air filter with a K&N and a normal sports exhaust. Then I put a custom stage 1 tune. My Ford Fiesta went from 100 to 143 HP. I believe that's generous enough since I am scared of breaking my car XD

Hey I am building an fiesta st and I'm still on stock turbo and I have a stratified e30 tune on my car now and it runs good but he won't max out thr stock turbo fir me plus I am going with an s280 soon any advice where to get one?

I got tuned by both dizzy and adam. Adam seemed safer, he backed off way sooner and told me to upgrade the fuel system before pushing it any more. (i used both tuners because i got impatient with revisions and wanted to see who was quicker lol) with my dizzy tune, he cranked the boost at least 4-5psi more than adam. On the logs I noticed I was creeping into the 13's AFR, and I said wtf?? back off. So he agreed and backed off a little, But I still felt the tune was unsafe. I noticed under part throttle, like 12-14psi, Adams AFR would go much richer, like high 11s. meanwhile the dizzy tune barely hit high 13 AFR. Needless to say, I have been riding with Adams tune since.

S280 going on mine soon.

DId you perform a boost leak test?

how you get your datalogs like that

Hi.

Hey man, can i ask if you recommend upgrading the wastegate on the S280 turbo? To 14psi wastegate? Or can i use the wastegate that comes with the turbo?
