stevmo3691 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Had an idea for a 2.0 turbo engine swap with a difference. was thinking the 2.0 duratorq turbo diesel as modern diesels are clean running, good economy, easy tuning and smooth. be a bitch with wiring but should be worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoney Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 or just buy a mondeo wich is more modern more comfy and looks better imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchkev Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 agreed, all that hastle will set you back more than the actual mondeo its self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamGTR Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 By all means go for it if you have the money, modding is all about being different, you could ask why people spend thousands on a Corsa when they coulr have bought the top spec for the money they have put into their bottom specs, but if its what they want to do...

JC Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 I wouldn't bother, and that's from some one who had an engine swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevmo3691 Posted February 2, 2010 Author Share Posted February 2, 2010 its not something i intend to do very soon. just spitballing ideas. really give people a shock though as i would put a TDCi badge on it. also i dont want a mondeo as i dont have a need for car that size. had a p reg as a temp. nice car but no use to me. escort is just right and mine is very comfy thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 I'll give you £500 cash if you do it successfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevmo3691 Posted February 4, 2010 Author Share Posted February 4, 2010 I'll give you £500 cash if you do it successfully.i'll hold you to that when i get round to it - prob 2 or so years away as being 19 and an insurance claim of 20K against you means i have to be careful with the mods for now. when its cheaper and i can afford to have another car as a run around whilst escort gets rebuilt then i def will do it. just seems like a fun idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
