you can go the frst route, then it's only a few little mods to the loom then, if you go megasquirt, then it's even simpler, just chop the wires on the ecu plug and use what you need from the inputs.

We don't have fiesta rst here in Norway so can't just buy one and drop in the engine. Have all the other bits from an escort rst so that is no problem..
