Hi!
I'm planning to convert my T25 EECIV(small turbo) Escort Cossie to a T34 Weber Marelli type (big turbo).
Is there anyone who has done this already? .
I could use some tips wheather to use L6, L8 or P8 ECU and engine loom, type for this conversion, and what parts need to be replaced (eg. loom, sensors..?)

regards
Daniel

I haven't done this myself, but i do remember one of the Ford magazines over here having an artcle all about it, showing all the parts you'll need as the process of how to go about doing it.

I'll see if i can find it for you.

 

get on the phone to simon at sec's hes done a couple of these conversions using after market management t34 manifold etc and it works out alot cheaper too than doing it the old fashioned way of complete management head swap etc

 

i have had mine done using pectel management, speak to harvey gibbs @ scs on 01733 576614........he has done quite a few and knows his stuff

 

thanks

 

Can you tell what was the rough cost of Pectel + loom?

 

Ive found the magazine article.

Performance Ford October 2002.

If you are not in an immediate hurry i could scan it and send it to you.

It'll mean having to find my scanner.

Let me know...

 

Hi thanks COSRUSH
A friend has performance ford books. asks it him tomorrow OCT 2002
I have the bad books (fast-ford )
bhut there is probably now S.E.C.S ECU on the market that works with already the standard sencors and loom of T25

Hears someone all what of heard of this ECU ??,because but in Belgium is not this way news for cosworth is there a couple cosworth here
ps My englisch is not so good sorry
Greetings Daniel

 

secs ecus are very good and very compatible

 

Roughly how much are you talkin ŁŁŁ for this conversion?

 

all in all to totally rebuild my engine to low compression, greys, gt28 roller turbo, big wing sump, ported head, cams, etc etc.......the total conversion from my small turbo to this and a few other little bits and bobs like uprated fuel pump, new fuel line, and a few unexpected parts was

Ł8600 cash

it has transformed the car though

 

ive heard harvey say its about 4000 just for the conversion. so 8600 isnt too bad considering what you are getting!

 

Isnt that a bit fookin steep tho...

For a few grand more you could have yourself another escort cosworth surely...

 

yeh i could, but it wouldnt be running a brand spanking new 400 horse power engine...............i've spent a lot more on the car and there isnt one thing on my car that hasnt been renewed or refurbed, so to me, she is like a brand new car

 

If only it was possible to buy new interior parts for LHD :-(

 

Fair point buddy - Fairplay to you for putting so much time and money into your RS...
