Default converting CVH turbo to zetec turbo

hi I own a frst on OFAC I am contemplating going to the zetec turbo engine as opposed to the CVH for reliability , I am wondering if people could tell me what parts I can use of the car now and what parts I would have to buy to get running a basic 2-250 BHP

Do you already have the zetec engine? Manifolds, turbo etc with adapters plates i beleive. To be honest if your going for 2-250 the the cvh will easily handle that
