Default Cvh efi turbo engine what car to fit it too ?

Evening all I am getting a Efi fiesta turbo engine in a few months and I'm undecided as to what car to fit it to. I have a engine mount set up for a mk6 escort so that would be a wiser option, but Id like to move away from them and try something else.

What car would you lot suggest I put it into ?

If you are very careful ( and may be a little crafty) you can have slightly wider steelies on it than standard to aid getting down the power with the ORIGIONAL hub caps on them. This means that it will still look totally standard.

Also shorten the exhaust by 6" and angle it down towards the road a bit so a 4" custom pipe is not poking out the back to give it away!

After this you have to practice to keep a straight face as you embarrass people off the lights, then ask them if that are compensating for something..........
