zetec turbo - thinking about breaking for parts- see last post
Hi everyone im building a black top zetec turbo and thought i would share it with you guys.
first of i must apologise for my bad spelling lol
So far i have got the engine out of the car (1.8 silver top) and ditched it for a 2.0 black top!
got the engine stripped down to a bare block ready to be acid dipped and decked/ refaced for new head gasket.
Pretty happy with the engine its running standard bearings and had only done 48k
bought loads of goodies....
T35 turbo of a lancia delta evo
Crazy cage inlet and exhaust manifolds
Focus rs exhaust
ACL bearings
Cat cams/ devil developments valve springs
Brand new focus rs pistons
New forge conrods with 22mm gudgeon pins
Omex 600 management
focus Rs AP clutch and gearbox
The Car
The 2.0 engine
engine stripped
Exhaust manifold
Inlet
Turbo next to a t3
Valve springs
bearings
Pistons
Con rods
Next to standard pistons and rods
Dont have any pictures of management... its just a big bag full of wires and ecu lol
gonna get the engine to engineering company on Monday for dipping and a reface, hopefully get it back for next weekend to start building!
This is my first zetec turbo build (built cosworth, cvh, and zvh before)
Any advice or things i might have forgot???
Cheers
Danny

Was aiming for 400 to start with (chasing figures) then spec changed slightly and thought 300bhp is more then enough in fwd car... Hard to lay the power down!
So will be happy to hit 300!
What sort of power do you guys think this spec would make realistically?... Not really interested in pub talk about false bhp figures!

It's going to be a road car with few track days etc... Hoping to get it done and all the teething problems sorted before ford fair (depending on funds)
Got the most expensive parts out of the way but its all the little parts that's add up!
Go 4wd???? Never seen that done other then using cosworth running gear

I hope so.... My 2.0 ZVH fiesta turbo was running 240bhp and 280 ft torque on ib5 gearbox and quaife diff, 16" wheels and just wheel span constantly... Even up Santa pod on slicks!
Will be running 17" on focus plus equal length drive shafts which is meant to help!

The rs2k 4x4 drivetrain is strong enough. it needs its own oil cooler with catch tank to make it last at higher power outputs.

not a good idea mate, get some decent new 400cc+ injectors not worth building a strong motor then risking melt down for the sake of a set of injectors.

who ever is doing your mapping should spec you some really, and make sure there compatible with omex.
your call, but I would not mess around with small injectors low boost or not.
