Default Turbo Technics

Would a Turbo Technics Kit run rubbish on my car fiesta mk3 1600 sport CVH, TLD, Standard Cam , Flowed Head. but the problem is i had a 30tho skim to increase compresstion. would it run propally or would the skim bugger it up cheers BAZ and how much HP would i be looking at about 20 -25hp

might be easier just going for an rst lump as finding a complete tt kit is very rare and even if you do it'll need a full referb. might be worth keeping your eye on ebay for a complete xr2-tt then you can swap all the bits over you need as its all there and you can sell the bits you dont need.

there cool little kits though deffernatly an option if you want to try something different.

oil return is easy, you ust makea hole in the sump (altho on CVHes there may already be a hole inthe block you can use!

as for turbo play, on any TT kit you buy, budget for a rebuild of the turbo, most of them have seen better days


i'd also advise going the RST route, it'll be cheaper, give more power, more tuning potential, and a lot lot safer. you can do thw ehole swap in a day, maybe 2 if you're lazy and not done it before.
