Lol cool.

If it's a Zetec one it'll be a lot easier than doing a CVH

[sam-si]

hows it getting on? any underside winter prep yet?

Not had the time now I'm back at work mate, and having a knee op on 25th so will be out of action for a good few weeks

[jonyb4]

i like this, dunno why but 2i's seem the worst effected by rot to me

[Moony69]

Cheers bud.

Nowt doing at moment, last thing was the RS1800 Inlet manifold and Mondeo fuel rail and injectors that were fitted couple weeks back.

Goes very well, just need the ECU sorting

[jonyb4]

i got a pair of 2.0 cams for sale if the mods will allow me to sell you them, if your interested ill see what i can do,

Nice one mate but it's got 2 lire Mondeo lump in there anyway

[jonyb4]

oh christ sorry i missed that

[Moony69]

oh christ sorry i missed that

Lol no worries buddy

[Moony69]

No updates really apart from an RS1800 ECU gone in today and pulls like a monster

Thanks to DANIELP1991 for that, good price and very speedy delivery

It needs time to settle in but I can feel some difference already lol

Got a chance of a superchip as well that was run on a 2fdc RS1800 ECU, would this be ok to use? The code on it is 4824.

Steve.

[jonyb4]

ha thought dan sold you it soon as you said got one, he ticked it off his list a few days ago


the ecu you bought is a 2fCD or what its called, so should be fine

[Moony69]

The ECU I got off Dan is a 2FBC, the chip is worth a punt when I have stopped paying for Christmas pressies? lol

[jonyb4]

you should try and get a H.O inlet and injector plate from the RS1800i or escort Xr3i 130ps, i noticed a nice step in power and alot more torque

Hi mate,

I have got the H.O. inlet and using the Mondeo 2 litre injector rail and injectors

[jonyb4]

aah sorry missed that, only thing your missing then is a pair of cams and a 4 branch and it be kicking well above 130

[Moony69]

aah sorry missed that, only thing your missing then is a pair of cams and a 4 branch and it be kicking well above 130

Well I would hope it's above that already with it being a 2 litre with the mods I have on it lol

[jonyb4]

ah yes looking back i can now see the 2.0 part

it wont be making more than 160 though mate, not with the RS1800i inlet, they top out at 160bhp as its commonly known

[Moony69]

Aye have heard that before lol

What's the best inlet to have?

[jonyb4]

its hard to say, theres not many out there either, unless you adapt another manufactures one to fit

areasix make some, mostly for use on a turbo'd zetec, other than that carbs or throttle bodies are best

[Moony69]

Will have to look into this I think lol

[jonyb4]

tbh mate seing as its K reg, you might as well slap some carbs on it, the emissions wont really matter as its before '92 theyre far more acceptable

[Moony69]

Have thought about that but don't really wanna do too much more messing really lol

Will see what I can get out of it the way it is, maybe a few more tweaks but nothing else so major

[DANIELP1991]

glad its going better for you mate!

[Moony69]

glad its going better for you mate!

Cheers pal

Hoping to get a power run in before Christmas, then see where I can go from there. Maybe a de-cat or sports cat and then a remap.

We shall see

[DANIELP1991]

cool you havent got a de-cat have you.

i got a de-cat pipe for sale.

[jonyb4]

i was gonna say sod the sports cat unless your not keen on swapping around for mot's

be better going for a decat, just simpler and faaar cheaper

[Moony69]

De-cat is so the best option money wise lol

Daniel, pm me a price for the pipe mate

[jonyb4]

hes got it up for £20 mate

[Moony69]

hes got it up for £20 mate

Oh cool, cheers lol

[Moony69]

Ok, thanks to DANIELP1991, I have now got and fitted the Superchip he had for sale.

Pulls like a bloody train now

Tried to do a rough 0-60 but with the front wheels spinning up for a couple of seconds I only managed about 7.5 seconds, so with no wheel spin I reckon I could do it in under 6

Next thing is to get it wired up and remapped, then the power run and see what I am looking at before deciding to take it further.

Bodywork will be getting done this year though.

Bring it on.

[DANIELP1991]

Glad it made a difference mate!

be better when you got it mapped to the spec of your car. as at the moments is mapped for 2fdc rs1800 ecu and yours is a 2fbc ecu. thats why i wasnt sure if it would work.

de-cat would make a good difference now as i said by text.. much less restriction in the exhaust then.

you still looking for coilovers? as im selling my avos..

[Moony69]

Nah mate, am happy with my set up it handles really well ta

Thinking about the texts, the 2 litre engine is 136bhp standard yeah? Surely with the mods I have, mine should be pushing more then 145 ish?

Just a thought lol

[- Danny Boy -]

What mods have you got?

[jonyb4]

how are you judging this 0-60 time? most home done efforts are completely inaccurate


i really dont want to burst your bubble mate, bt it has happend to me, and you should get fair warning as i did

i really doubt you'd be making over 140bhp mate

a ported blah blah blah maf and tb is cannon fodder and it wont change a thing on a zetec, they dont respond particually well to breathing mods as it is

it wouldnt have been 136bhp when you dropped it in due to age, mileage and the smaller exhaust on your fiesta compared to the mondeo it was rated in etc etc



just need to lower your expectations a bit, i was expecting 140 on my 1.8 only made 126bhp, and i have a full exhaust and good induction set up (a blow in the exhaust and overfueling have hampered me yes, but goes to show)


the best most dramatic changes on a zetec (most engines tbh) can be made using a new sportier set of cams
but dont bother with phase 1 cams theyre crap, was really dissipointed with mine

[Moony69]

I know what you're saying mate, and you defo know more than me lol

The engine had only done 56,000 when I got it and was an atuo as well so it hadn't had much stress.

Still, what ever it is running at, it's bloody fast and a lot of fun lol
