Escort_DL

Hey,

I have an M reg. Escort LX, with a 1.4 CVH (I presume) EFi in it. Looking to see if I can get any better performance out of it for use primarily in road rallying. Unfortunately can't get a bigger engine due to being a 19-year-old student with only 1yr NCB. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Not the most tuneable of engines mate, however a cone filter, 4 branch manifold and full stainless would make a decent difference

Not worth it IMO. You could chuck a couple of hundred quid at it and see only a couple of extra bhp.

Agree with this. Just dont bother declairing it, the car would be worth nowt if you crash anyway

lots can be done your need money to get results but thats tuning for you for a NA engine its all about flow and max filling of each pot so its, filter ,gas flowing ,high comp pistons or head skimming ,valves size valve angles ie back cuts ,cam lift and duration , flywheel weight reduction ,manafold tune , timing and fueling ect.....lots to it dude !!!!!!!!
