Hello,

I currently have a fiesta xr2i and am looking to pull some more horses out of it. I have been looking at the twin 40's option, but what parts do I need to carry out the whole conversion. Or is there a more cost effective way to get more bhp such as an engine conversion, but I do like the cvh motors as they are very simple (pretty much all ford motors are though).

I'm not looking for a monster of a car such as 300bhp. Max 200bhp as it will be my daily runner till I save for a sierra cossie !!

As much information would be great guys.

Thanks

 

XR2i 8V or 16V?

TBH I'd keep it standard and save ALL the money for the Cosworth. 105 hp isn't so bad after all.

 

As above. Or just get something already converted to a turbo and save for the cossie

 

Shes an 8v

 

Keep it standard and save your money.

With a 16V engine it would be easy and cheap to get 25 extra hp by using 130 hp spec camshafts, tb and ecu.

 

Well Ive got some twin 40's so gonna stick them on and gonna give her a tidy up. Then shes going to get sprayed in nautical blue (new mk7 fiesta colour). I'll put some pics up as shes geting done.

Thanks for the replies

 

NOS - that could give you an extra spurt of power as and when you need it, it is instant to! no lag press the button and you are off! - Intend fitting it to mine shortly and been in a fiesta with it in and it was fun! very good for the overtake!
