Default rs turbo piston rings

Are the genuine ford piston rings for an escort rs turbo the same as the piston rings for the fiesta rs turbo (will they fit).

And is it usefull top replace the piston rings with STANDARD SIZED ones when rebuilding a fiesta rs turbo engine (don't know the exact milage)

the size (std or not) will be stamped on the top face of the old rings and probably the piston too if they're oversized.

frst and erst should be the same as internally it's still a cvh with same bores etc so dont see why they wnt work?

at least the N/A efi engines had different rings to the MFI engines.
