Default mk3 mondeo 2.3 duratec on TB's (ebay)

what do you guys make of this:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-MONDEO-01...QQcmdZViewItem

looks nicely done, but i'm surprised to see its not properly mapped. and the emissions could be a worry for the old mot man?

from my reading of the 2.3 duratec, it is very underpowered for what it should be? makes something stupid like 150bhp in standard form or something? and it comes in either with a normal head or VVT head I think. Shitloads of power to extract from that though

both mate have been fitted to fiesta st's one with the standard 2.0 and one with the 2.3 and soon one with a 2.5!!

2.0s did over 270bhp on the rollers the other day IIRC

2.3 not sure

the 2.5 is hoping for 400bhp IIRC!!!

ah right on the US focus forums they keep moaning about the duratec not having a SC kit available, i suppose they wouldnt consider any kits from the UK cos of the prices here lol
