Default XR2 Turbo which drive shafts?

Ive put a couple of posts about this Im doing an xr2 turbo project, but I didnt get a deffinate answer on what shafts to use.

Do anyone know weather fiesta rs turbo ones fit straight to the car? or which shafts are the easiest and will withstand 200bhp

cheeRS folks

Fiesta RS Turbo will not fit.

Just use standard XR2 shafts, preferably with an ERST (LSD) box, or just use any BC box. With a half-decent clutch, any of the boxes will cope with 200bhp.

I am running a turbo'd track fiesta with serious torque, and never had any issues with using XR2 driveshafts.
