Yes it can be done to the XR2i, I had them on my Orion when it had is old 1.6EFI engine the same as the XR2i.
The good thing is that you don't have to change much, knowone does a kit for the CVH but they do do one for a zetec that will fit but the only thing you need to change in the kit is the inlet manifold and would be looking at 25bhp gain and more with head and cam work but the only problm is the price at £1800+ for kits.

probably easier to ditch the efi, blank off the fuel reg take off and fit some 40s, much much cheaper than throttle bodies and will give practically the same out put

leave throttle bodies for a zetec

Could get a whole engine, throttle bodies & management for £2200

If anyone has the cash i would say to buy it for that price

My engine cost a bit more than that

would abe a lot of trouble to fit though cheers for all your info and advice might have to get rid of my car soon though due to certain circumstances but hoepfully not.
