hello.was reading the HOW TO MODIFY THE XR2I on fast ford,and it states that all you need to get is low comp pistons,turbo and manifold from a S2 escort turbo,injectors from a fiesta rs turbo,and intercooler and to fit a fiesta rs turbo ecu with some additianol wireing mods to get it running.and also a gear box from a escort rs turbo for the lsd.

just wounderin if this is true?if so has anyone done this

Thanks,Andy

 

Makes it sound so simple.

 

why not just source a turbo engine, loom & box... it would be ALOT simpler, rather than the full re-build you have just described with a new loom and g/box...

 

why not just buy a s2

 

Or just buy a Fiesta RST??

 

it does make it sound simlpe but does it make it sound cheaper?

 

no.

but a rotten one for 6-700 quid and then you've got ALL the parts you need, then parts to sell on once your done, you'll always make back 150ish quid from bits and pieces

 

cheers,not a bad idea buyin a rotten one

thanks
