It is a Cosworth YB. It's been mounted transversly rather than in line which may be what's confusing you.

that looks identical to the Puma that was a Mountune WRC spec'd Cossie engine running T6, T34 anti lag, air to air, coil packs etc...


also runs 4x4 through a mitsi Evo box , diffs and custom prop

made by DJ motorsport

not sure wether this is exactly the same

The Ka looks a bit of a dodgy conversion if you ask me!! Look at how the turbo is resting on the roll cage brace, and there is no front panel or anything in the car..

Steve Scotts conversion could almost be factory fitted and puts the Ka to shame if you as me!

2 points here--

A)- 11k to put a FocusRS engine in a Mk6 fiesta! FPMSL! Proper ripoff

B)- Thats NOTHING like whats being done to that fiesta at all, Focus into Fester is just putting 1 FWD lump into another FWD car, that Festers having a fookin mega power cossie engine installed AND all the 4wd, so totaly different floorpan, suspension turrets, the lot.
