AIRTEC Motorsport Turbo Exhaust Manifold/Header for Ford Fiesta ST180 1.6 EcoBoost Mk7/Mk7.5 - High-Flow Tubular Hot-Side Upgrade - Stage 3, Hybrid & Big Turbo Ready

AIRTEC Motorsport High-Flow Turbo Header for Ford Fiesta ST180 Mk7 and Mk7.5

Unlock stronger boost response and effortless gas flow on your Ford Fiesta ST 1.6 EcoBoost with this AIRTEC Motorsport high-flow turbo header. Replacing the restrictive factory cast unit, this performance hot-side upgrade improves exhaust pulse energy to the turbine, helping the turbo spin up quicker and giving your tuned ST180 more headroom for power on fast road and track builds.

Why this upgrade is a winner

• High-flow tubular design that reduces back pressure and improves gas velocity compared to the stock cast item
• Noticeably sharper boost response and quicker spool for a more eager, flexible powerband
• Ideal hardware for Stage 3 calibrations and perfectly suited to hybrid and larger-frame turbocharger setups
• Great choice for spirited road driving, track days and time-attack style builds seeking reliable performance gains
• Direct replacement hot-side component for the ST180 that supports higher power levels

Tuning guidance

• Stage 1: The OE part copes well. Swapping to the high-flow header can improve response, but peak gains are typically small at this level.
• Stage 2: Expect faster turbo spool and a modest uplift in power, often in the region of 3 to 5 bhp, though this can be hard to validate on every dyno.
• Stage 3: Strongly recommended. As manifold pressure climbs, the cast unit becomes a bottleneck. The AIRTEC Motorsport tubular construction frees up flow for significant improvements, especially with hybrid or bigger turbo conversions.
