ASR valve control

Hi all Eagerly awaiting my ST170 (w STHP) delivery tomorrow and have been eyeing up a few tasteful oem+ upgrades. One such upgrade would be to have full control over the exhaust valve, if it’s anything like my old 1.5 the sport button really doesn’t do a whole lot, only opens the valve at idle and a...

Re: ST Handling pack optional extra

https://youtu.be/yr1JmTK9DfU First proper in depth review of a Handling Pack equipped car i’ve seen! My main take aways: - Car actually sounds pretty good for a 1L and retains the naughty soundtrack of the 1.5 (albeit without the pops and bangs) - STHP KW suspension (in standard setup) is indeed a ...

Re: Ordered a new Puma in May

IMG_5671.jpeg The first modern car I remember seeing with this style of wheel was the C8 Corvette from across the pond.

Re: Facelift exhaust sound

Would you say the engine / exhaust note is reasonably loud on the inside? Obviously never going to be shouty as it is a one litre but is does it sound sporty? Honestly hard to tell on YouTube. Although once I take delivery of mine, I'm sure it won't be too long before I start looking at miltek or mo...

Re: ST Handling pack optional extra

Out of interest, have any owners picked up their handling pack equipped models? The only ones ive seen so far in the UK haven't had this specced. Ive got a handling pack model on order and looking forward to trying out the KW setup to see if it makes a big difference over the standard ST which ive t...
