go and have a ponder on passionford..

as said above, they do rot quite bad (like most fords) and there alottt of shitters about so if you do buy one make sure you give it a good look over, so you know its all ok and genuine..

i had a efi cvh turbo engine in my mk4 escort (fiesta rst engine) and it was fine, no leaks at all, run well, and awsome sound!!)

all i can say is shop about abit first before you jump at one, make sure its sound and genuine...

Fiesta turbo's are EFI escort turbo's are not, Any1 who puts a dumpvalve on a Fiesta turbo wants shootin, Stick and inductionkit on and they chatter like mad, its the future, and before any1 says it, No it wont kill the turbo, Ford didnt put dumpvalves on as standard did they

Oh did i mention, i have owned a white fez turbo, And yes i want another

it is but its not, If you think about it, chatter is the air slappinf the turbo blades, But putting a inductionkit on lets the air move back away from the turbo easier as its not trapped in a airbox, So if a fiesta turbo can do 80-90k on the standard turbo then surely it will do more without the airbox, + it sounds ace

basically concourse 151bhp efi turbo..





made 151bhp @ 6psi with t3 conversion, straight through scorpion exhaust and pipercross filter..

then i fitted a stage 2 t3 hyrbrid, GRS fmic and upped the boost to 10psi, only had it setup, never knew what bhp it was in the end..
