What the hell have you built dude!! This is a different level of engine. Is your dad Harvey?

Your car looks epic. I'd love my car to look like yours!!

Look at Sparx & Big Al's cars for decals. Best I've seen!

I'd recommend leaving the MAF next to the air filter. The MAF will struggle with the heat from a the boost once you exceed a boost and heat threshold. I'm sure I read on here that someone had problems moving the MAF next to the throttle body.

I'd agree good quality oil is essential. Cheap oil thins out a lot with heat and oil is the main thing that protects wear in an an engine.

Makes sense that you should get warranty with a new part. If russv is right then where do you stand if you win something?if I won a washing machine do I get no warranty because I've not paid cash?or if I get a buy one get one free, so I only get warranty on one?or if its half price do I only...

I have to agree with the Noob. When i had a faulty coil pack the engine ran like crap even on acceleration & the idle was rubbish, but you dont mention idle in your problems. As said above when you accelerate the car goes into open loop mode so uses the ecu configuration to fuel the car, so...

Love the FRK seats ,but i think once you have had an FRP a standard puma just wont cut it, i think id spend all my time and money trying to get it like an FRP, but it would never quite be there!! Good luck with the sale.

Awesome looking car matey! 8-)

They might be expensive, but sometimes its worth it taking your car there if you only need to take it there once!! Taking it elswhere for even half the price isnt worth it if you have to take it there twice!! Nice to hear you have 'possibly' sorted your problems out.

looking good matey :grin: Will be good to see it running

Nice upgrades,what size speakers did you use, and are they a straight swap, or do you need adapters with them? The wheels arent my favourite,but each to their own, i prefer a racing type wheel like comps or superleggeras. The seats look well smart though,what colour did you go for,or is there...

Man you post some garbage, what was the point of this??? :evil: Do you sometimes have nothing to do and just post random crap like your beat up old jigsaw? :lol:

Any updates? Any chance you would make a mount and turbo manifold kit to make the conversion easier for other people? £260 for 2 mounts sounds way overpriced IMHO. Even if i buy the cast turbo manifold and you make the mounts.

No shit sherlock!! :lol: It did say in a post above that it would make no difference!! Im not sure if it makes a difference,but my pipes to the HCV are the other way around, the pipe to the water outlet on the engine goes to the right on the HCV, and the pipe to the inlet above the thermostat...

does anybody know if any of the zetec range, from the 1.25 up to the 2.0 have the same ecu pin-out? If so, surely you could keep the loom and just swap ECU and transponder?

So you decided on gold in the end then? Where did you get the new seal kit from mate?

Any more updates on this, looking forward to some results on this, im tempted to go the same route with my puma if this all works out! Waiting for you to iron out the creases though!!

Looking good,shouldn't be too long now before the big switch on!! :-P Quite suprising that the engines are the same size,hopefully the weight isnt too much different either.I suppose they are both ali block, so there cant be too much difference!
