Default EFi

i have a mk3 escort going to be turbo'd, the engine i have is MFi but i want to run Efi for reliabilty, better cold starting and i want to run around 250 horse

right i know its probabley been discussed a million times before on this board, but i'm still not 100% clear on what i need and what are the best bits to use.

so really, what management is best? will i benefit much from aftermarket management, if so what do you recommend? car will be running pretty much stage 3

do i use a fiesta turbo flywheel and get the crank pickup from there?

do i need to ge a cam sensor bracket made up and what cam sensor do i need?

i have a fiesta turbo head there with full EFI inlet and a fiesta turbo loom. what else will i need

and also if i need a custom loom making who is the best person for the job?

thanks for the help chaps.

imo if your after 250+ bhp fiesta ofab/ofac managment would not be the way for you to go due to it needing a custom map/chip made up which can be expensive, go aftermarket

it all depends what you want for the managment and how much you have to spend?

autronic works well

find a local mapper/someone you trust to map the car and then decide on the management

i think the only person i would let map my car would be MSD or that ahmed bahjoo guy.

how much is this omex or autronic management?

sorry to seem really blunt and stupid but i've never looked into EFi before in all honesty.

if you want to use stu or ahmed found out what they prefer to map

omex/autronic is probably £1500 upwards
