Just some ECU with non-PATS is required and a little re-wiring the pins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonfe Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 zetec is easier but is also not that great for a stardard 2l engine when compared to the rs. the weight diference isnt as much as people really think either, i mean you make it sound like its the weight of a V8! also they have better torque than zetecs, and its not the most common thing you see about either so if he wants to be different.....?
