Default P19 COS Escort Cosworth

Hi Gents,

I am the owner of the above car,today i have been talking with GGR about their 305bhp conversion. Now due to my car having the ANTI ecu i cannot have this conversion. In the future i will be having a new loom and bigger turbo instead.
What Graham Goode did tell me is that their chip wont mate with the ANTI ecu.

Now my car has apparently got a MSD Chip fitted to it. If the GGR chip doesnt mate with the ANTI ecu then will a MSD one be the same?

Also im looking to speak to a few previousn owners;
Craig Thomas from Mountain Ash in Mid Glamorgan
and
Dave Taylor from Barrow In Furness

I have spoken to a few previous owners already

Have Pm'd you will. Also got some other bits....

Just looking forward to taking it back to standard,has a MSD Chip and Mongoose exhaust on it currently.
Have so many receipts for it and all MOT's Becuase its an August 1996 model i cant really justify changing the loom/management on it...

Back to standard, but talking about chipping? You mean standard looks?

It looks lush on those rondells, wouldnt change a thing about it myself

Leave it man, it looks a pearler. they always look a little "under wheeled" when you see stabdard next to rondells.

Rip that loom out and fit a mahoosive turbo instead. You know you want to

I'd leave it as it is, perfect Escos that is usable. I like std wheels, but the 122's are THE best wheel ever on an Escos, they make the car!
