You can hide it in the heater box.

Wazzzer · 03-11-2008, 10:12 PM

on the fuelling side you need the engine bay loom and injector/fuel pump relays (yellow ones) from the rs turbo and plumb the loom in like this...

Pic coutesy of Rab from when I did mine all those years ago

I can't remember how to wire in the ECU off the top of my head but I think it's on this same loom...

hi guys i'm doin a zvh convertion using fiesta turbo efi manifold to my s2 do u know what throttle cable to us as the connection to the throttle body is different if you have any ideas would be a great help

Wazzzer · 07-11-2008, 10:20 PM

you need the throttle cable and the pedal from the Mk4 EFi XR3

ive done this conversion to my estate and my combi and both times ive used an efi xr3i loom and its actually easier than you might think,easily done in a day and as said already will be neater and ecu will have its own cradle in the car behind the heater so nice and neat and not seen either

Wazzzer · 08-11-2008, 10:13 PM

I would have used the EFi loom too if I had a garage to do it in

i converted the gfs mfi cab to efi using an efi loom aswell and as said its alot neater althou the prob i had was fixing wireing probs as it was from a breakers and whoever crashed it before it got scrapped decided to cut alot of wires up!!

A mate had an mfi cab he fitted an efi turbo engine in and all they did was wire in a fez turbo loom by just connecting certain wires to the batt and 1 of them to the ignition live!! they were the wires on the multi plug u disconnect the loom from.

vroooom ptssssh · 23-07-2009, 11:29 PM

all very well using the XR3i loom, but what if you have an S1

robgee32 · 30-05-2010, 03:23 AM

is it the later mk5 xr3i loom that was efi not the mk4 one

Chris69 · 20-06-2010, 11:57 AM

90 spec mk4 xr3i's had the efi engines- thats the loom you want

its a straight swap then a few little changes and your car is efi turbo ready.

robgee32 · 20-06-2010, 07:56 PM

the loom i have in already is simular to the fiesta rs turbo ofac loom it is the later zetec xr3i loom can anyone explain the differance between the 2 and carnt i just unplug that part of the loom and plug in the injector loom and car loom i think it has the same connectors
