Default Mk4 rst van

My brother has just bought a mint mk4 escort diesel van which we are going to convert to rs turbo spec. I've managed to source a brand new tank for it but what needs modifying for it to run injection?

You'll need to get a turbo tank and take all the swirl pot out and weld it into the van tank Or iv Hurd u can use a turbo one fitted side on. My tank has been modified with the rst internals.

or do it properly and fit an external swirl pot, lift pump, and main pump. Then will have no issues and can use std tank without cutting it open etc.
