ok was at my local meet last night,

a guy has a 2.0L Zetec 16v engine for sale, just want to know your opinions really,

2.0L Zetec engine that had a Turbo. he said all of the work has been done on the engine.
he said he had a T3 mounted to an Turbo manifold, with Ofab ECU,

i did ask him did he chnage pistons to low compression concidering he said hes had the work done to run a turbo on this engine and he said , he used stanadrd pistons, with decompresion plate approx 7.5:1 compression ratio, with a 5th injector and it all worked ok.

anyone comment? sound good? or would it be worth buying it and fittng it into my xr3i and upgrading to the turbo later? as i think he used that for his new car.
