if you change the turbo you will need a chip to sute also if you fit the turbo from an escort you will need the T-pice from the back of the block the oil feed pipe the manifold and the oil drain in the block will need to be changed as its different on the efi lumps compaired to the mfi engines

also a custom down pipe will need to be made up.

as for the cam stick with the standared set up

fit the t3 m8,they'r cheaper,your need the turbo escort manifold and down pipe,your need to uprate your intercooler if you havent already,fit a 31 actuator too for more boost.........if you click fiesta turbo.com they will go though it in great detail,you need a few more bits,carnt think what they are tho.....cam wise i have a k cvh 35..
not bad cam imo.....but your choice......
