Lots of home tuners on here?

For those who tried a 1.7 tb etc why? All you do is gain a tiny bit at WOT and lose power and torque through the range

The 1.6se is much better for na tuning IMO that the 1.8/2.0 zetec-E

on the 1.6 se the head and valves will fow enough for nearly 200bhp, it's the cams, manifolding and management that are CRITICAL

The super1600 fiesta runs 220 bhp from a n/a zetec-se
Shawspeed do hundreds of them for kit cars

You will need to think about clutch and gearbox tho as the ib5 as standard is only happy up to about 150lbft
