you have tell the insurance lot, aswell as the dvla, cops can do for that!

good conversion to do thou, how much bhp is 2.0 16v mondeo 150 or 160
not to sure

by **wywywywy** on Sat Jul 10, 2004 1:57 pm

Mondeo 2.0L Zetec = 130bhp
Insurance = Group 9 if you use HIC
Brakes = optional but you really need them!
Rear discs = for look only, if no money then don't bother
Performance = should be slightly faster than a RS1800
Cost = 275.00GBP from MMOgenius, labour only

nice 1 guys. i knew you had to tell dvla, jus wasny sure bout insurance company. the si is insurance group 8, so if the mondeo is only 9, it shdny go up to much. c the extra 40 bhp, is it realy noticable? can you get a 2litre turbo that fits in the fiesta?

Damn new I forgot to do some think lol I better send my log book off then! Told the insurance but forgot to tell the DVLA! :lol:

by **bryan.clements** on Sun Jul 11, 2004 7:37 pm

how much did your insurance company put your insurance up by wen you told them about the 2 ltr conversion?

Wot actual engine did you use, like wot year and spec?

Bryan.

by **unknown_user** on Sun Jul 11, 2004 10:35 pm

I used a Mondeo one. Didn’t go up much at all
They class it as group 8 I think

HIC

by **Fiestasi-Andy** on Mon Jul 12, 2004 9:54 am

I'd recommend getting a 2.0L mondeo engine & ECU the same year as your si

by **luke eversham** on Mon Jul 12, 2004 8:23 pm

ive got an 8v xr2i group 14 on insurance, would it go down if i put the mondie engine in do you think? :bonkers:

by **Fiestasi-Andy** on Tue Jul 13, 2004 9:30 am

it woudl be harder to stick a Zetec were you CVH is now

by **DanW** on Tue Jul 13, 2004 5:08 pm

if a mondie engine is only 130bhp then why do so many ppl do it why not just buy a frst???isnt there a 2l engine with more power that u can fit in??for all the effort of changing engines id want more then 130bhp.

by **scotty_boy** on Wed Jul 14, 2004 1:18 pm

because with a fiesta turbo comes a little RS badge on the back spanking your insurance right up to group 15. ouch! where as by sticking a 2.0 Zetec in you'll be sitting in group9 with similar performance figures.

130brakes not bad youth...i'd happily take it rather than my 90brake on the old si.

now where did i leave that spare £500?!

by **chumkila** on Wed Jul 14, 2004 1:30 pm

you also do not need a rear disk conversion to run a 2.0 in ur fiesta although it would be a little help if u uprated ur fronts.

The effort and money is much lower than getting a FRST... especially a reliable FRST.

And if you've got aload of cash then you can always mod the engine, even convert it to a turbo which my mate has done, but it does cost!
thats gona b my next step, 2.1 zetec turbo in my xr2i wohoo!

by **DanW** on Thu Jul 22, 2004 3:41 pm

well that put me straight lol

ive been thinking of doing this myself but i might just tune my xr2i altho a 2.1 zetec turbo would be nice :aviator:

i need to do something to beat my mate in his calibra!!

by **scotty_boy** on Thu Jul 22, 2004 4:45 pm

knife. tyres. goodbye crappy vauxhall.

by **18rs** on Sat Jul 31, 2004 10:49 pm

the newer mondie engine ,black top kicks out 155 bhp ,the focus 130bhp but the tourqe is i think 148 mondie/126 focus

by **wywywywy** on Sat Jul 31, 2004 10:59 pm

But they are not as easy to fit nor as cheap as the Zetec-E from Mondeo 93-00.

some parts on here

by **escortbreakers.co.uk** on Thu Aug 05, 2004 5:56 pm

mondeo 2.0 are 137bhp but have good torque.
basically with a chip and exhaust and induction kit you would have about 150bhp and big tourque which would throw a fiesta along brill,
theres no turbo lag either so it makes a good drivers car.
i have a 2.0 head for sale here http://www.escortbreakers.co.uk/mk5/engine.htm

by **Sunil_FiestaRS_16V** on Fri Aug 06, 2004 2:57 pm

the 2.0 is a wicked conversion , and if u tune it like i have u can show quite a few cars up

STFA!

by **DanW** on Thu Aug 12, 2004 4:08 pm

sounds like a good plan after all! is it harder to fit it into an xr2i 8v then say an si or xr2i 16v??altho i might be looking to buy a corrado or mr2 soon so it might not matter!!

by **winterracer** on Sun Aug 22, 2004 10:09 am

wasn't there a mk5 escort rs2000 which had a 2.0 150bhp engine, would that still be a straight forwardish swap?

by **AndyRS1800** on Sun Aug 22, 2004 10:18 am

Yes/No...

If you want to get in contact with him, you would be better off PM'ind his other half, Xr2i Chick as he doesnt check on here very often.
