thats the route i was thinking of taking mate next door has a zvh rst fiesta and i want to leave him sitting
plus my other mate over the road had a tall block 1.9 cvh running around 360bhp and he knows what he is doing when it comes to zvh/cvh/zetecs so il have him here to help me just want some more info so i can get stuck in when he's not around
im not saying im not mechanically minded because how many people do you now that can build a redtop nova in a few hours lol
as stated im very much a vauxhall man and im wanting a change to a different genre of car
never really built a turbo engine but im very clued up in the building of a c20xe into a c20let and it cant be much different really

any info fingers pointing in directions of info parts will be appreciated

Ooooh ...well i do cos there are enough billy bullshiters with rsts who all think there knocking on 300hp. Least cossie owners dont all go around saying there all 500hp and thats what gives rs turbos a bad name cos they go through the hands of idiots.
Oh and either silver or black top is good, mines silver.. but what would i know seems american tallblock is the way forward according to the 'mate over the road' if it makes 360hp, fook it i might rip my lump out and go 1.9 lol.
