Remind you of anyone?

(Sorry mate, if its someone else. Stupid joke.)

[Nick 2i]

ba_rave - its the same dude from malta that was posting last time

[MadcatCraig]

injectors ???

how do you intend to manage and mount these

please correct me if im wrong but doesnt the zetec use side fed injectors

i "presume" u are reffering to cosworth greens these are top fed

you would have a lot of modification to do infact a whole new inlet manifold sytem to run this.

what ecu is running this setup ?


Scattacks

[Ian C70T5]

FRST Intercooler.

Why you using one of these, they are crap

[chumkila]

Ian its really down to personal budget.

[Ian C70T5]

Personal budget mate..

He is going for stainless steel valves
ARP bolts
Green Injectors
Porting and polishing

Not worth doing some of these if the cooling wont be up to scratch..

no point having huge injectors if you cant run the boost to go with the fuel.


What mangement are you using mate?

7.2 is low too

[zetec16]

i think i will use, FRST ECU or a Cossie ECU.
what u think?

just tell me which is the best.

and yes frst intercooler are crap, and i think i change for something GRS Intercoolers or Pace?

i want is some help from you guys, which is the best parts to tune my 1.6L

[chumkila]

I personally think this is Adrian.

[Ian C70T5]

Yeah, this bloke is a muppet

[AdrianFRST]

I swear to god this is not me. I may be a joker but I can tell when a wind up is wearing thin.

His IP tracks back to Malta so I can only assume that he is a real person but incapable of taking any advice whatsoever.

*sigh* Oh well, one last try:

THE VALVES ON THE ZETEC 1.6 ARE TOO SMALL TO GET ANY DECENT POWER OUT OF THE ENGINE. SELL IT AND GET A 1.8 OR A 2.0!!!!!

[zetec16]

that's what i'm going to do, i'm going to sell the 1.6l zetec engine and get a 2.0L Zetec, couse that's the best option i think.

[zetec16]

but now i need your help please!

what's the best modifications do i need to get about 280bhp+ from a turbocharged 2.0L Zetec?

your help would make me happy

valves are too small on a 1.6 ehh??? then why not just but new larger valves?? problem solved!

[Ian C70T5]

Because it is dead money.. why modify something to be as good as something else standard that is very easy to get hold of..

[zetec16]

i was told that a larger valves, will be safe to turbocharge my 1.6l zetec

Assuming it's even possible, the cost of modifying the head for bigger valves would be much larger than buying a complete 1.8 or 2L which has adequate valve sizes.
