Deadmeat Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 can it be modified to fit an escort? i know the engines are slightly different but basically the same. these superchargers sell for just under £1500 in the states and i may be able to get one imported here cheap instead of paying £3000 for the privilege of buying the exact same thing here in the uk from what i've read they don't need intercooling and there's no need for uprated internals as it's very low boost (5 psi). the only thing i reckon it may need is a dastek unichip which would be around £800 fitted and tuned. fitting of the supercharger is normally around £500 but in this case should be a little more since it'll need modifying to fit. am i just dreaming or this realistically possible?

foxdie Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I briefly looked at this, techincally the older focus' and later escorts use extremely similiar components and is based on the same technology. So it should work with minium customisation, but i think your best talking to a garage willing to carry this kinda work out!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
