Default 3i to Turbo

My 3i is mfi on a 89 plate and i have the chance of some fiesta turbo pistons, just wondering if its possible to use these and turbo inlet etc from a mfi turbo?

I cant decide to go n/a 2.0 Zetec (to start) or Turbo CVH aim is for 150 - 200 BHP

Cheers

If you are going turbo CVH then it's FAR easier to transplant an entire lump and loom than mess about with parts...

thought that would be the answer and thanks for replying but im still curious to find out if the heads are same etc and what else needs to be changed. Mate (of a mate)reckons he can change the pistons for me and i think he has a few other bits and peices i have seen a zvh he built and it went well

Off top of my head i guessed at inlet, turbo, pistons, oil feed, cooler, plugs? but i have probably forgot loads of stuff???

EDIT:Keep thinking of other stuff to add
