I'm putting a zetec turbo engine in a rwd fiesta, i'm considering what turbo to use. I have a T3 off an escort, but obviously to mount this would mean that either the inlet side would point to the bulkhead or, if mounted upside down, the exhaust elbow would be pointing upwards.
I cannot just spin the exhaust elbow around due to the shape of the fixing points, so i think i will need to get a different turbo.

Which turbo might suit? Would a cosworth T3 give me the same problems? Or a SAAB turbo? any suggestions, i have seen AustenWs westfield had a turbo mounted in a similar manner with a different exhaust, would it be easy enough to get this made up?

Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks a lot

 

I'm selling my turbo and manifold if your interested?

 

pm me a price and spec please

 

Just use the wastegate housing from a Saab/Volvo/etc... T3 and then you don't have the elbow problem...
