Difficulty level of frst

Postby BlueFiesta85 on Mon Feb 06, 2006 12:07 pm

how difficult is it to change a 1.6 twin carb conversion to a rs turbo. what am i looking at changing for diffo? the base model was a 1.6s engine so no looms were changed when i put the carbs on.
can anyone give me a list of things that i have to change and what parts i can keep.and overall is it a difficult task?
cheers all.

You'll need roughly;

EFi fuel tank
FRST Loom + ECU
Radiator + Intercooler
Turbo
FRST engine
Specific fuelling and cooling pipework.

You can keep your running gear, and the gearbox, but thats about it.
