jp Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 that is so unfair id love to have it, id have that any day over the nitrous but i dont think my engine will take any more horse power.... gutted!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cossiecab Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 Thats not a bad price allthough far from complete. If the hybrid is in good nick its worth the asking price alone, but wouldnt bother with that manifold.Makes you wonder why he's selling it on e-bay when he could flog the turbo elsewhere, other parts arent worth much either, the modded sump wouildnt cost much to do and there not a lot else to it, as I said far from complete.

Orion Si Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 how hard is it to put an RS turbo lump either and fiesta or an escort one in an Mk2 orion 1.6i Ghia, some one said its basically a straight swap, cos the engine mounts are the same etc also which one would be better, the fiesta one or the escort one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furry Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 i did a turbo convertion in my old CABBY did it in 6 weekends from scratch in a council lock up with no electric etc best to go with the escort lump as it's allready mfi fueled so no need to swap the fuel tank/lines, engine mounts all meet up as it is the same engine just internally different.

It is fairly straight forward but would be much better to get both cars side by side and swap it all bit by bit. Get it all from an escort RST if poss cus then you'll have a slip diff and it should pull the car better than the fiesta RST (cus onions quite heavy) due to the bigger turbo. If you want it to last though I would be inclined to have a rebuild with neccasary parts as all RST's have had a hard life! Hope this helps, cossiecab.
