Turbo converting a xr3i EFI cabriolet???
right got a xr3i 90spec cabriolet and its EFI from factory.
How hard would it be to make the car efi turbo using fiesta turbo running gear?
Is it simply a case of just replacing the ecu, map sensor, edis for the frst items and plugging the frst engine bay loom in aswell?
Then put the FRST engine and turbo etc in? or have i missed other important things?
cheers, hope u can help
