Try Mark @ BSW motorsport - you should be looking for around £2K

Cheers Paul. BSW Motorsport?? do u have an address, tel or website? sorry to be a pain! :smile:

Cost you £2k if you want to get ripped off! What engine and parts have you got and what do you want to produce in respect to power and torque? I've seen a well tuned escort rst with just a chip and skimmed pistons fudge an escort cossie off in a straght line and off the speedo! :lol:

Sorry gents, didn't mean to sound like a right (or left) tit there. Just being a numpty...

Would a 2.0L Turbo be a better bet anyway???

by **chumkila** on Mon Nov 26, 2001 4:41 pm

Yep Al a 2.0L turbo would be better. But whats the monetary difference between the two jobs??

by **Excursion** on Mon Nov 26, 2001 5:33 pm

well not strictly

2000 has siamesed bores as apposed to the 1800's full water jacket.

thers sod all difference in power between the 2 litre and 1800 (40bhp+-) untill you start to go over 250.

1800's more readily avaialable

kool! nice1. so what are the opinions - good to do or not??

by **Excursion** on Mon Nov 26, 2001 6:25 pm

yeah good to do, but the only trouble on the zetec is the management side of things as you need to retain emmissions regs.

Its a programmable efi setup you need and the the final setup wants programming my Ahmed

by **chumkila** on Mon Nov 26, 2001 6:43 pm

ic. thats not a real prob. how about recommendations of reliable people to carry out the same? do you know how reliable this set-up is? i take it practically the same as doing a 2.0L? how many ppl have acutally run a turbo'd zetec w/o many probs?

Sorry for the questions ppl, i got loads more, just wanna get answers and feedback.

by **Excursion** on Tue Nov 27, 2001 8:28 am

Its as reliable as a standard zetec engine if done properly - Ian howell does a proper job of it

by **chumkila** on Tue Nov 27, 2001 9:34 am

looks like a lil word with Ian H. is in order! :smile:

SUNNY - have you got that GTiR manifold on yet? and who did the headwork on your cvh head?

Chum - Yeah ring Ian at Lincoln if you are enlisting someone else to do it. If your doing it yourself its possible as I am but you need to research lots first.
