When did i ever say a 58BHP escort was poweful?

a)my old escort was 74BHP (RRd at 71 IIRC)
b)i never "stage 1" tuned my 1.4 just bolted on a cone filter and an exhaust for looks and sound,not performance
c)i dont think any standard escort (other than the cossie) is powerful,that includes the RS2k

im 19. and by the way my "not up to much" 88bhp engine has done 125mph in 4th gear, its raced and beat xr2i's, xr3i's, corsa sports, saxo furios, clios and a lot of other hatch backs. the stage one tuning package comprises of a tenzo r cold air induction kit and a performance manifold (cant remember the manufacturer at the minute). oh and im sorry to say this scoop but my little 1.4 has pretty much the same power as most ford 1.6 engines.

your best bet would be to get of a b16a engine and chuck it in, you will get it done for £1500 and it will see your car up to 160bhp. and before you strat going on about insurance etc, well lets just say that with that tunning kit etc etc and all the other mods you have your presant insurance is more than likely void so why not chuck the engine in.

fair point. its just a lot of money to spend in one go but i suppose it could work out cheaper in the long run. might get in touch with adrian flux or somethin if i swap the engine for the insurance. maybe i should go all out and wedge a h22 engine in it hahaha.
