n/a zetec to turbo conversions...

CVH and Zetec tuning, suspension and braking mods.

I was wondering....

Can anyone throw some names at me of people doing lower pressure turbo conversions on zetecs these days?

Nothing wild, std compression running about 4-6 psi on my 1.8 16v. Failing that route what do you think around 700ish notes could do to said engine? Bearing in mind it's also daily driver, don't really need an 8K redline!

Cheers mark sort of.

Thanks for the advice but I'm dropping this idea now, it was only a last resort really to keep me interested in the fiesta. I had a drive in a v6 probe and as I've been looking for something a bit bigger for a while... not to everyone's taste, but seemed a nice car. So if anyone fancy's mine, 2100ono, check the 'for sale' :smile:
