Hi guys Has anyone on here done a turbo conversion on a 1.8 zetec ? If so what was the cost and what parts where required

I just wanted honest opinions on what i could achieve with a ponto. There are 2 mks on the market, one with pinto standard. The other with a 1.8 zetec on bike carbs, equal money. But the pinto car is a much nicer car. But this is why i ask. Do i get a cleaner car but standard engine, or a car that needs a tidy up but with the zetec. Dont want to make the wrong choice

I dont want to throw £1000's at a pinto just to sruggle to get close to 200bhp. From what ive seen a decent ported head with cams cam be £1000 alone. Then carbs on top of that St170 with bike carbs and a me100 will be £1000 ish

The chances of finding a mk with a duratec in is minimal

Nelmo, If i were to buy a mk running a 1.8 zetec on bike carbs. Would it be possible to part that out for duratec or st170 engine ? Will it still fit onto the gearbox allready in the car ? Do you also think the ecu/electrics would still be the same ?

Cant find cars for sale ? How do you search for them ?

Pref mk with a 2.0 duratec

How do you search for cars for sale on this group ? Thanks

Thanks

Do i look for the likes of a zetec ? Wiil the engine fit on a type 9 box ?

Hi guys, looking to buy an mk indy with a pinto 205 in. Is this engine capable of around 200bhp with mods ? Or should i be looking for a different vehicle and engine ? Thanks Matt
