I am not sure, but the WRC turbo cars have a similiar sound. The Gymkhana Fiesta may use a spring loaded plate mounted on the intake manifold that protects the engine from overboost conditions. The Pikes Peak Fiesta's used that, and Ken's car is based on that. Check out Olsberg MSE's website for more technical data.

All forms of the Fiesta rally cars are sweet, too bad USA doesnt have a really big rally, Ive heard of Rally America but thats it...just "heard" of it never seen anything about it. Anyone have any info? Besides all the fun is in the WRC!!!! cant wait for the duel between the DS3 Citroen and the Fiesta! Go Ford!
