what would be the best way and cheapest way to put a 2.0l mondeo lump in my car its a 1.4 focus 2001 ( x ) i already have st springs wheels trim ect ect just under the hood is all satanded ... so what type of enging would be he best and do i need to change the gearbox and mount i no i need to change brakes ...

 

do a st170 change there is a place in b'ham that will sell i every thing u need engine gearbox loom ecu shafts mounts the lot for Ł990 i think thay are on ebay

i would say that would be the best way

cause then u get 170bhp 6 speed and its all focus stuff so bolt in and away u go

i hignly recommend the ford centre big andy there supplied and fitted everything i did engine and loom wise. my car went form a 1.6 to a FRS engine. you need a full loom etc for a swap but tehy will provide everything. the st stuff will go straight in too.

 

its not an st lump i want in its just a 2l zetec just to spice thing up a lil

 

still the same bits needed fella.
think what we meant was for the cost you could do an st lump for similar money.

 

i could get the parts for mondeo for next to nothing and i would kill myself in a st

 

no you wouldnt lol im ok with an rs
interms of a mondeo engine again youd still need the loom ecu etc. however id imagine the loom would be alot of work to modify.

 

so if i got the rs lump and loom ct ect. how mutch is it to get it in and running . where abouts is ford centre as im in sunderland

 

do you mean RS or ST mate?
there based in birmingham by villa ground get intouch with them

 

st or an rs just sumthing to kill these 2l corsas .. see i have a to put money into it just not enough where it out values my car .. and a bonus is cheap insurance

 

an RS conversion will setyou back alot more a full set up will cost 3 times an ST. best bet if your after performance is the ST engine the 2.0l mondeo engine isnt as quick could be but with more pennies spent. IMO the ST 170 is the best option wont cost stupid money

 

see i could get a st lump no bother i live about 2 mile of a salvage yard and i get on with the boss . i could take the car for less than a grand it might be a case of strippin mine and replacing with st stuff

 

just make sur eyou get the ecu full loom etc aswell basically you need a donor car

 

lol am foooked haha harder than i thought like

 

when mine was done the full interior loom was changed and modified the whole car was stripped ecu. all has to be done.

you can pick up an st170 for around 4500 now anyways so maybe more worth doing? cost wise makes sense

 

true mate ... cheers

 

no worries

 

i will back you up on that mate

 

worth it in the end thought mate as youll know love mine lol

 

im sorry but I dont understand what is 2.0l lump?can anubody tell me?

 

its a 2 liter engine

 

its a 2 liter engine

 

its a 2 liter engine

 

thanks man

 

an st170 would not kill a 2 litre corsa.


It would be far easier and cheaper to sell your car and buy an st170 if thats what you wanted.

 

A redtop corsa aint that fast..... my st170 easyily passes them! lol

 

a fous st is faster i think just not alot faster

 

corsas are 130 bhp

 

my mate has a red top corsa not much done and its very fast would easily pass your st..

 

dont know about that lol

 

A 2lt swap would be much easyer then a st170, Trsut me i have now done both as my focus did start as a 1.6 then went to a 2lt and now just finishing the st170 swap. with the st swap you will have to change much more parts liek the dash loom all the engine bay looms clock's gear changer, and loads more bits like fuel lines as well.


With the 2lt you will only need the engine bay loom and ecu and you will be able to use you old dash loom and speedo. i do have a 2lt engine and loom and ecu for sale soon as well.
