I've got it on my XR2 turbo, but i'm running a SECS S8 ECU so all i needed to buy new was the loom which was'nt that much, well worth it though, and really easy to do.

if you do as i did get the zetec coil pack from the breakers and the mount to the engine make it look factory fitted
then you need the secound ing amp
and a loom for it
you dont have to use the phase senor as you can have a cam sesor fittted to do the job !! i think it looks better

A LOT of extra expense for absolutely no gain whatsoever though.
