ok it's not in a fiesta but it's still a ford - a escort to be exact. it's just my run around cos I want to keep the miles off my FRST.
it's got a 1.8 diesel engine, anyone got any tips on getting a little more performance out of it?

Is it a 90bhp turbo or the 70? Anyway u could start with a Airfilter & exhaust. Also Superchips may do a chip, Therse a box called JTBOX power boost kit which Demon tweeks sells which increases bhp & torque. :wink:

it's a 92 k plate (pre-facelift) 1.8l - the 70bhp NON turbo.
Cheers.
