power steering on a mk4?? 5?? fiesta.. can it be used on a fiesta rs turbo? dunno if this has been done?

[xrsi]

all of the power steering parts of a 1.4pte Si can be used on the 1.6 cvh to give power steering

[GrahamRS]

pte? the one before the zetec model? have many people done this then?? woo power steering

[edders]

pte is what the 1.4 cvh was called. if you want power steering on an rs turbo you will have to get all the gubbins off either an xr2i, si, or anything else that had a cvh and power steering. im unsure if the 1.6 pump is the same as the 1.4 but thats something youll have to find out

[allinking]

and if you need a 1.4si cvh power steering system let me know

[GrahamRS]

ohh yes please.. how much.. just thought it would be something different to do.. have a little bit of power steering hehe.

[JayC]

1.4 si parts are what you need, rack, hoses, other bits n bobs, the front mount is what your after and i belive these would only have been fitted to the 1.4 si, maybe some cvh ghias if there was any?

but its been done, jay on here and ford-force has done it.

but, im a jay, hes a jay, and theres loads of other jays..

im sure hell be along to contribute

[Ollybee]

Surely all you would need is the pump and the mount, the rack and piping ect can come from any pas fiesta can't it?

[JayC]

yeah.. but why go looking for it on other cars when its all one a 1.4 si?

[Oranoco]

Parts from the 1.4 Si can be used.

You need to think whether this is a good idea or not as the PAS really does deaden the feel and feedback from the car and the FRST steering isn't exactly heavy.

The PAS will also sap power from the car (up to 15bhp) as the pump needs powering

[jayrs]

if your running a T2 forget it, there isnt room for the pump, there is if you run a T3 though.

unless you use a electric pump set up
