I have got a 2i and there is a possible escort rst engine on the way but not sure about the transplant. I no it will bolt in but what about wiring, exhaust, and rad and intercooler placement. Please help as I need a turbo. :???: :???:

Done it in mine....

You will need to -
1: - Re locate the battery to the boot/behind the front seats.
2: - Use a FRST Radiator
3: - Use the front half of an ERST exhaust and rear from a FRST.
4: - Change the FRST petrol tank to have a pick up from the bottom of the swirl pot.
5: - Mount the ERST pump/accumulator under your Fiesta.
6: - Mount the ERST metering head where your battery used to be.

errmmmmmm probably more stuff.....

If you want a look @ how its done my ill be @ Doncaster in April.
