The head is shaped differently on the inlet side to allow the positioning of the injectors.

As J7aoc says you can buy an adapter to allow the EFI inlet to be used on the MFi head. This can cause problems with clearance (which is tight in the Fiesta bay anyway. Probably do better to source a repalcement EFi head. Any FRST/XR2i item will suffice as they are the same, probably be cheaper than the plate as well.

The FRST item is absolutely the same as the standard XR2i item.

I can't guarantee however that a worked XR2i head will work properly though. What works on a normally aspirated engine to help things along won't necessarily help on a turbo engine.
