more power on small turbo escos

scott-cos · 08-03-2010, 11:46 PM

hi guys my small turbo escos is off the road at the moment due to head gasket being blown and radiator leaking and thought now would be a good time to up the power. car already has full ss exhaust with de cat, induction kit and rs500 spec intercooler. ive ordered a reinz group A headgasket set. ive been keeping my eye on msd 350 bhp conversion and liking the sound of this. what headbolts fuel pump and other bits would you recomend.

thanks scott

It`s not so easy on st escos, eec4 ecu is more complicate to map for bigger injectors, i think msd still working on it, it`s another tread about it here some place

Interesting. What limits the power out of curiousity? How do they differ to a t34 head?

ECOS95 · 14-03-2010, 11:05 AM

Can the ST head be improved upon or is it just its not as good as a BT head as standard ??

It can be improved - the ports are just smaller than a BT head, so it becomes restrictive beyond 350bhp.
