Default FIESTA TURBO

can anyone tell me how much power would you expect from a fiesta 2.1 16v doch zetec turbo running on on two bar of boost?

i have just bought a lovely fiesta turbo, the car is currently running on 1.3 bar of boost and is pumping out 274 bhp and am just wondering wat kind of power would she pump out if it was running on 2 bar.
the guys at frankinstein motors sport said that the engine is capable of 2 bar of boost. they did the work on this car.


so tell me your thoughts......

Have you got a graph to prove that power?

As for your question.....it all depends whether the engine standard or modified, the type of management it runs and how good the map is.

not really a question that you can put an easy answer to unfortunately.

YES I HAVE A GRAPH TO PROVE THE POWER. 274.1 BHP AND 299LBS OF TORQUE HERE IS THE SPEC ON THE ENGINE.

2.1 16v with Arias pistons, ARP bolts all round and lightened and balance flywheel, engine has probably covered no more than 2.5k including the running in period.
*Stage 2 plus gearbox with Quaife diff, short peened internals and LSD running standard ratios.
*DTA management with 2 stage boost control. ( includes many other functions such as lauch control, etc... if you want them).
*FSE fuel regulator.
*Cosworth Breather System.
*Cosworth Fuel pump with external swirl pot in the boot along with Fuel Cooler rad - located underneath the boot.
*T34 stage 3 with 0.48 exhaust housing, cut back blades.
*Scorpion exhaust.
*GRS intercooler and Pace Modified series 2 radiator which made a massive difference to the cooling ( came off Paul Ripley's car ).

ah right if its got a T34 then that seems more realistic

if you have such exact details of this Zetec engine surely that has been run up in a car and should have a power figure to go with it?
