ST170 turbo some help needed
Hi all,
So my focus started of as a 1.6 petrol I decided after some time to put an ST170 engine with turbo into it. Finally after many months of work the car is up and running to some point.
Couple of problems that I bumped into and would be good to get some concrete information if possible:
1) I have the 1.6 ECU still in there suppose to take care of the inside like aircon, speedo etc. The other ecu DTA is taking care of the engine. When revving all is fine but once the car starts moving the RPM's get lost when going over 2000 RPM and the speedometer shows speeds of over 220kmh in second gear closing the scale. Is the ST170 ECU a direct exchange fit compared to the 1.6 maybe the whole speedometer should be exchanged for the ST170 one only??
2) I'm using the stock ST170 radiator but this seems not to cope with the temperatures at all. Taking time and looking into other posts people use this radiator without any issues so I don't understand my situation and the speedo also shows the temperature as normal but the DTA ECU and 1.6 ECU would show on the computer around 101 Celsius. When would the speedo temperature indicator show warning signs? What aftermarket radiator should I be looking for?
3) Turbo timer: when turning the car of the turbo timer kicks in however I cannot lock the car by the remote so when I turn the lock it is closed but once the turbo timer stops and engine shuts down the central lock opens the car again. This makes the turbo timer useless. Any ideas how to get round this?
That would be all for now...any help will be appreciated.
