Hi
right ive got a new project car a 92 escort with full cosworth body kit and interior, its the best rep ive seen and has had a 5 page spread in fast ford for being such a good look aliky.
Its running a fiesta rs1800 engine atm with 150bhp now the car is in bad shape so needs alot of work doing to her and hopefully she will get a refeature if i get her mint again but im going to have to do something different.
Im going to transplant a ST170 engine and the 6speed gearbox. But what do i do? Turbo or throttle bodies? I cannont decide which is the best choice, turbo will be more expensive and more complicated but throttle bodies will be easier and more usable.
What sort of bhp could i get out of each? has anyone tuned a ST170 engine like this before?
If i turbo it i will use this inlet
