mk5 rs turbo
hi, im looking into putting an rs turbo engine into my mk5 zetec s. i was wondering which engine would be the better option, the fiesta or the escort engine?
which gearbox, the rs turbo or do i use my current box abd get it welded for the starter motor?
and finally, ill the fuel tank from the frst fit the mk5 as they are basically the same chassis?
any help wll be greatly appreciated, thanks alot craig

the fiesta one, its EFI so its tones easier to set up and not only that, will start in the cold..
dunno if you can use the box you have or not tbh... i think you should be able to unless its MTX, but even so im sure you can use that.
your tank on the mk5 should be good enought for the turbo transplant, its got a fuel pump and return and thats all you need.
