Hi mate

 

If you are already running efi the loom you have is ok, you can just bolt on a turbo but you have to keep the boot right down, put the oil return in to the sump, use the fez turbo ecu and MAP sensor. I would not recommend this though.

 

The best thing to do if you havent got a big budget is to either get a a fez turbo lump and just do a engine swap, you will still need the fez ecu and MAP sensor, inter cooler. Or you can can come low comp pistons from a turbo and fit them but you will need to fit the oil return in to the sump as the stared block does not have the oil return.

 

Bits you need no matter what way you go are the ecu, MAP sensor, exhaust and inter cooler.

I know what you mean, that';s why i am building one from scratch and at my owne pase, already got an efi turbo block and crank, just need to get the block bored out and the crank leightened and balanced. Also got a t3 and the RS gera box with LSD just need to recon them all.

Seeing as your car is already efi you can use fiesta rs turbo ofac ecu and map sensor which plugs straight in :smile: next is to either use you original engine and fit rs turbo pistons to it then fit an oil return to the sump or use a fiesta turbo bottom end you can use your head and inlet manifold t3 turbo then its all the little bits and pieces radiator intercooler boost hoses :tongue:

 

it took me 3 months searching on ebay to get everything together only to change my mind on the spec i wanted to go lol
