Something around that area, its on a GT30, so not expecting too much on pump fuel.

Big valve head, Jenvey throttle bodys, mis inlet, which bolted straight onto the throttle bodys, just had to elongate the holes ever so slightly. Inconel exhaust manifold with Indy car external wategate.
He will be happy with a drivable 500bhp with good torque figures. Its going to be running on a Life Racing top of the range F88 ecu. with traction control, launch control. 6 Speed sequential gearbox with flappy paddle steering wheel gear change. And plenty more little trick bits.
Should be fun to drive

Not this year fella, he has taken 5 or 6 years to get to this stage, he is in no rush lol. But i can say he is in no debt over the car, and that in itself is quite and acheivement on its own, considering the spec and him only being a Diesel fitter working on lorrys all day.
He is talking about bladed front and rear anti roll bars now, he is going to speak to Steve Scott about them at the weekend.
It will be running soon with a temporary loom, just to try it whilst he is waiting for the car loom to be made, so i will get a video clip done of it.

Maybe, but you would probably find it would be just as quick around a twisty track, cant beat atmo power in an escort, plus the sound

It can be expensive, all depends how you want to do it and how neatly, braided hoses etc

I can't argue with you on that point, Bret from our group (dorset RS) has an orange mk2 mex with a NA yb. The noise and throttle responce.
