I have a few ideas for my fezzy van i can get a cossie lump but whats the cheapest price to have fitted or a zetec 2.0 turbo or turbo my rs1800 and suggestions and prices would be a help,cheers.

2.0 Zetec - £350

Turbo Conv - £1500 - £4000 depending on whether u do the work urself or not. I've seen someone turbo a 1.8 Zetec for £900.

Yeah zetec turbo is only for people who have a lot of money and can pay someone to do it, or if u are handy at engine building then you could probably considerably reduce the costs by having a go yourself but at some point expensive management setup is needed. I know people on here have done it so somebody must know more?

chum tony uses a compression plate

ask sunny what he thinks of using standard zetec cast pistons in a turbo engine.



BANG will be your answer

turbo zetec will turn out to be alot of money considering u have to modify the engine to accept the turbo, then modify it even more to get more power out of it...once all thats done, u have to make sure all the fuelling is up to spec...and more than likly gonna have to spend mega money just for the fuelling and a correct map. To find out how much just for the map, ask Sunny howmuch he has to pay for a mapping session!

howmuch can u do the cossie conversion for?? im sure the zetec turbo option will be cheaper than that??

Sunny's original 2.0ZVH motor that he had for ages used to run std zetec cast pistons, and ran for 90k miles i believe 100% reliably. And at even 10psi, it was a weapon (videos confirm this).

For a 16v engine, cast pistons are not an option, as std ones will have a CR that is FAR FAR too high for turbo usage (9.8:1).

Yea i know Craig and Phil.

I'm lazy, i just set the post ball rolling...
