Default efi turbo conversion

hi people im new here and hoping someone will be able to help with some stuff

i got a fiesta zetec turbo on ofab managment and am going to be swapping all the running gear over to a mint mk4 escort i pick up

im fine doing all the mechanical side of things as i built my fiesta from scratch but am unsure on the wiring part
as the escort is a carb model

do i fit the fiesta turbo loom and some how match it up or use the efi xr3i loom

cheers

Yes you will need the ECU and associated loom, you may also need to sort the fuel side out, more specifically the delivery, as the Escort is carb you will need a pump as the current one is likely to be mechanical, the fuel lines may also need to be uprated and you will also require a return fuel line if not already fitted.

The standard rev counter may need to be changed.
