Guest hightower Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Hi everyone After much thinking I`m looking to convert my mk4 to a turbo beast sleeper car. Unfortunatly I`m not having any luck spoke to a few company`s not been called back, But I spoke to jam sport northampton for a 2100cc turbo it`s roughly £3000 to £4000. also spoke to rsturbos in bournemouth i think a ford spares and breakers from £2000 to roughly £3000 they can fit a full focus st170 conversion or a full focus rs conversion. (which from the cheeky email they seriously want to do!! ) I`m seriously thinking about the rsturbo conversion or does anyone know of someone relatively close to sheffield who can do this full conversion with everything in. the reason is i want it doing properly if you know what I mean I`m mechanically minded but doing the engine myself maybe a bit tricky. PLEASE HELP THIS IS DRIVING ME NUTS :taz: CHEERS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest markeyboy Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 go for the focus rs mate, that will be a seriously one of a kind car then, poss even worth a feature in fast ford or performance ford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hightower Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 cheers for the reply markeyboy I`m not after a mag slot just a sleeper car one that looks slightly altered on the outside to the untrained eye a xr3i cabby with stickers. But underneath a complete animal ready to shock unsuspecting people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escortcabrioletclub Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 hi there ... well it you can get a focus rs conversion done for 2k i would recomend you go with it ..... a st170 is a nice conversion but seeing as a 1.8 zetec thats been played with a little will put out 170bhp i thing a st enginge would be a wast of cash .......but would look good things you need to ask your self ...... do you want a turbo ?? how much do you want to spend .... on engine brakes and suspention ........ is the car used everyday ? do you drive on high rpm ie hold the gears ... to 6k on most gear changes ? theres a lot of people on that will give advice on engine conversions lol ......... have you thought about the new 2.5 5 cilinder turbo engine out the focus ........ that would also be a nice conversion good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
