ok guys need some advice here,

after phoning around asking mates mates etc,

i have 2 choices, which would u say is the best to go for guys for turboing my zetec,

option 1:

Ford 1.9 Zetec Engine Block and Pistons,
block is 1.9 with forge piston, the conrod are design with floating gudgen pins,
the pistons need new rings and it also needs a new mains and big end bearing.

option 2:

2 litre zetec bottom end, complete with 1.8 sump,
set of used mahle forged pistons from a vauxhall xe, apparently told they will make it low comp, however i was told needs will need reboring to suit to give around 2050cc.

what do u think guys is best option?
thanks
