Re: MK1 Zetec turbo/carb
thanks, maxwell the oil cooler is actually the water cooler for the charge cooler!! but there will b a oil cooler making its way close to it!!!! plans for it are a new set of coilovers, oil cooler and a baffeld sump or dry sump! new fuel tank an relocate it to the boot, new seats an harnesses, a quaife diff (got an escort rs turbo lsd in atm an doesnt feel like its got one lol) and the obvs, new wheels, all this makes it harder as my RS will b goin in the spray booth in the next few months an then il b rippin the engine out of her for a full rebuild, (thats another thread) an at some point i will b doin a little bit of body work on this one, but all in all she is solid!

Re: MK1 Zetec turbo/carb
ok so since iv had the mk1 iv had to do a few thngs like change the turbo as it blew, so i swaped it with the same one gt25, altho the other one was a gt25r (ball bearing type) also a little job but a massive diff is iv put a BaM shifter on,
iv got a list the size of my arm of [ERRR] i want to do to her in order to make her better an futher more quicker, i would like to try and get her into the 11's

Re: MK1 Zetec turbo/su carb UPDATE 20/01/13
Oh look who it is
I think the carb will do 300 at a push tbh, although the car doesnt really need it, honestly man just take it out on track and you will see the straight line stuff isnt where its at
I do miss it, kinda regret selling it but hey ho, hopefully the next car will fill the empty hole in my life, as that s**t mk1 escort really didnt LOL!
