Nice car m8
one of mine is a turbo at the moment
, cant knock a turbo'd xr2, weigh fuck all and also go like fook
one thing m8, who did the conversion, because they went the long and hard way about it by using the full escort wiring loom, and the ecu's are still in the engine bay which always makes it cramped and are prone to failing being so close to the hot engine, were behind the airbox on the escort.
all in all m8, lovely car and i also like the escort clocks

Mossy - nice car
Rab - It's actually a RS500 intercooler off a 3 door. I had fitted it to a friends 3 door cossie when the twat put it in a ditch
Mashed the front bumper/cooler/radiator. So he got new stuff and i replaced the damaged items. only the bottom 9-10"of the cooler was damaged/bent...The rest was fine...So he had it chopped n welded back together...o.........and it was free aswell

Stevie - Your will never get it done. Only 5 weeks till me show mate. How'd you get on with the missus Sunday. Ya didn't look a happy bunny when Me/Cooper/Talbot gave you a lift home early Sunday morning. Hope u sorted it
Doug - PMSL
LPS oil slick me up
Ross - Errrrrrrrrrrrr is your done?

smit you cheeky mofo
I'll never get it done eh? the engine is in the bay and it fits!!!!! (only f*&king just!)
I've just got to "make" (Bodge in other words) an alternator bracket up and a downpipe and that should be about it. Gonna drop the engine back out tonight and paint the bay as I aint gotta cut or weld anything else. So all should be sorted by the weekend and hopefully running next week.......
As for Sat nite, no I wasn't in a good way, but its all sorted now
Cheers mate, Stevie
