think i may got for a 4" inward either side, as i'll need a custom exhaust for the turbo

Looks smart. I think slightly smaller splitter. Other than that, its different and looks good. Oh and zetec turbo as opposed to 15 yr old rs turbo.

well if i keep it... which is looking likely, i'll be after a 4x4 mondeo or escort to donate its running gear and bild a zetec turbo, but for now i just wanted 200bhp and the easiest/cheapest way was to buy a crappy cvh

cvh are not crappy, imo they are twice the engine over any zvh
the cvh is a fundamentally poor engine design - honda had this and the i16 1.6i / vtec and they suprising sold there dodgy cvh to ford and carried on with the vtec
the zetec lump is far superior to the cvh, the only difference being the zetec turbo engines (found in the focus RS) are as cheap or as readily available as the old cvh rst lumps

p.s. the ZVH is just a bodge - nowhere did i mention a zvh
