Fitting an Audi RS3 engine into a Puma for less than a Duratec? Just an image to offer a clue that you may not know what you're talking about. Oh and by the way, its an in-line 5 cylinder. The block alone cost over £4K. Maybe you could post something of relevance sometime?
Need more power !

This reminds me,
Recently there was a fiesta MK5 fitted with a VAG 1.8T engine for sale on eBay,
Looked pretty smart, just shows what can be done.

I know that type of engine quite well, the stock 5 valve head is hard to work on but responds well to flowing.
With a good turbo and a decent exhaust your mapping options are significant.

Im fitting a 1.8tsi engine and golf r turbo.
Engine complete weights the same as 1.7 engine and gearbox combined.
Extra weight up front will be gearbox so about 50-55kg. i kept hearing bad things about the gearbox options from ford. So didn't go with Ecoboost or duratec.
Just my 2c on the topic. However puma nose is very short. So even the TSI engine is tight on space.

Slightly off topic, 1.8 BAM engine running 430bhp in a Ford Ka, if it fits in a Ka.....
