Question advice for changing my brakes

hi. i have a mk1 orion ghia 1.6 and modified engine, running about 120hp and now realise my brakes are struggling. i have been told that series 1 rs turbo calipers, dics and pads will drop straight on. do i need to change servo, hoses, master cylinder etc????? would appreciate any help/advice. thanks

they drop straight on do the rs calipers/discs/pads, the orion is basically an escort with a boot.
no need to change brake lines and servo etc.
perhaps you may want to look at upgrading further with cossie parts instead?

Your brakes are identical to series 1 brakes as standard.
