Efi conversion what's needed
 
It's a mk3 carb escort I'm looking to covert.

First off do I have to have a efi tank? Or will a mfi injection tank work

What's needed in the conversion, and can I use a mfi engine with the efi. With an inlet adaptor.

And if I do use the Rs turbo mfi engine what else is needed efi flywheel?

How easy is the engine look

Just seen the tread at the top but need to know about fuel tank,
Also if the xr3i loom is used do you need to add anything to run the map sensor for the turbo

which efi system are you planning on using?

Use a mfi tank.
About £100 new

Ofab as I would want to run around 1.5bar on a t3 with beige injectors. And 195 chip

So I need a s1 tank fuel pump and lines and filter with efi fuel line to rail for fuel system

nigel b Aug 6, 2011 11:05 PM

s1 or s2 fuel tank
make sure you use the right filler as well
standard rst lines will do you to the engine bay

you sure beige injectors will flow enough?
they arent that big

I'm only after 180bhp when I think about it,

Ive just been offered a big valve full race n/a head and as I already have a 1800 zetec bottom end, so with my carbs burtons recon it will be 160bhp just with n/a
