Hi there, I'm doing a restoration on a s2 rs turbo, I have a cvh engine, can I only use a cvh wire loom or can u use other looms aswell, I need the full loom for my car , engine, inside, lights , everywhere, if anyone has any ideas thanks.

 

If using stand alone management then you will want a non injection car loom.

If using mfi turbo then you will need a s2 loom

 

Thanks for that, what do u think the best thing would be to do,put a mfi engine in or cvh

 

CVH is the engine mate, MFI is the management (What controls the fuelling and spark timing).
But you will at least need a car loom to run the lights etc unless you want to make one up from scratch, then the engine loom will be determined by whatever type of management you choose.

 

Thanks for that mate, this is the first restoration Iv done and I'm not that clued up with the engine side of things and sometimes it's s little confusing wen I see engines for sale on eBay and some of them say cvh and others say mfi or efi so wasn't sure wat I needed, I want to keep it standard so if I get the mfi loom and a engine that came from a s2 mk4 that will be ok will it.

 

If your looking to have it standard than yes you need a mfi cvh rst turbo engine and loom for an escort.

 

Thanks very much for the info it's starting to come clear to me now.
Cheers

 

For a totally standard resto then yes mate an MFI loom and accompanying parts with a CVH turbo engine (Series 1 or 2 Escort RS Turbo)
