Default Zetec Turbo in S1

Hi,

Thinking about building a full zetec turbo using a 2.0 16v lump, probably from a mondeo with T3 turbo from my car to fit in to my Escort RS Turbo Series 1.

I think I'm just about up to date on how to build the engine itself but I'm hoping you guys can help me out with the other stuff.

Does anyone know what gearbox and clutch should be used> can the engine go straight onto a S1 gearbox?

Is there any issues with physically fitting the engine in the bay?

What management is best to use? I hear FRST's the best, does this go straight onto the S1?

Also I'd be really interested in hearing from people who have built these or drive a car with one of these engines. How do you find they drive compared to the cvh turbo??

Currently running original cvh with 190bhp and 189lb/ft torque but want to go faster!!

Thanks for any help, it'll be appreciated.

CheeRS,

Luke
