At the moment Jake finding it to be considerably better than my golf, but there is a couple of things and one of them is in fact has what JHTrophy said, the steering wheel, it doesn't feel big and it does have a good feel but its bloody ugly as sin :grin: also the seats have no tilt or lower back adjustment, although they are very comfortable. other than that its a massive improvement over previous Fords.

What kind of power are you getting from the ST on Supperchips?

The Bluefin is quoted has 280bhp and 330lbft torq, but the big thing is there is no torq limiter in 1st and 2nd :evilgrin: bit like the turbo hot hatch's of yesteryear :rolleye: the ESC has 3 settings and can be turned completely off which is good, the handling is brilliant and you can feel the rear end tuck itself in on quick corners. I've not felt much oversteer

Yes 320mm on the new ST and yes the calipers have changed and did used to be the same calipers has per R32/S3 but they look more like a normal type caliper now :confused:

I found it had a lot of torque steer though. Was great fun to drive though.
