Thanks for all the input so far. Really appreciate it.

My Cosworth has been stowed away for over 3 years now... Have just regained an interest in it and am currently doing a little bit here and there. Nothing major at the moment. Plan is to slowly do some repair and fit and finish work on it over the winter.

It wont, and probably never will, be a show car but I want to have it in a good and reliable mechanical state and also to take care of the minimal rust damage that it has at the moment.

The engine and gearbox was overhauled 3,5 years ago, but since the car has been stored it's hardly been driven after that.

The turbo is the std. T3 at the moment and basically either needs to be overhauled or exchanged for a new or upgraded version. At the moment I'm still trying to figure out if I'm going for the NMS Gunship conversion (which I'm thinking about at the moment) or to go a little bit further and get a hybrid turbo, new injectors etc. Some of the specs on here sounds very good and I'm relly tempted about having a T34 .48, siemens 55lb or light blue injectors etc. and get a really driveable and powerful engine. I allready have a Escort Cosworth EEC-IV intake manifold fitted so the airflow capabilities should be adequate.

Even though maybe not the ideal solution, but would MSD, NMS etc have off the shelf chips for such a setup or would it have to be a live mapping session?
