1800 Zetec Turbo
Been thinking about this (long term project. Very long term!!)
Any idea how much it would cost to do a low boost conversion?
I wanna keep it reliable and with laodsa torque!

Excursion aka Mark Stewart is the man to have a word with on this or visit his very informative site http://www.fiestaprojects.com as he as u may well know did this conversion and is also selling it now sadly.
The price would depend on who is gona do the work and if you'll be paying an engineer to do it.

urgh! Mr Stewart. Be best to email him then Si. I'll hopefully contact him and see wots up with the site unless he's closed it for good! It'd be such a waste of resource tho.

The domain name has expired
It's technically mine but Mark is the admin contact so the renewal notices will prob have gone to him.
Even though the site is on Titan's servers the domain is still managed by my old hosting co.
I'll get onto them tommorrow and renew it.

Simon,
I've mailed you over the shopping list I've put together for my conversion.
If you're going very low boost you might be able to strap on a turbo charger, etc, and limit yourself to around 6psi, but why?

cheers al - ill see what i can do without!
Im not after monster boost.........who am I kidding?!?! llama!!
N/A Tuning is expensive for anything over 150bhp IMHO.
I think Turbo is the only way to go. Who knows, I might be happy with my 130ps conversion!
Just have to wait and see (and beg my dad big time for help!!)
