246bhp? would you fancy racing it? you needen't bother as i could tell you the result now <img border="0" alt="[laff my ass off]" title="" src="graemlins/cwemotions042.gif" />

2.0L in a fiesta is quick already due to the massive gain in torque, as well as bhp, an to attatch a turbo is just plain madness

there's a guy who's engine spec list is this...

Sunny's 1991 RS Turbo

Engine:
2.0L 16v Mondeo Zetec block, CVH Stage 3 head, T4 hybrid turbo with 360 degree thrust bearing, Low compression pistons, K&N Induction kit, - 34 actuator, HKS dump valve, Power Engineering cam, Superchip, Samco coolant and turbo hoses, braided hosing, lightened and balanced bottom end, Pace chargecooler, alloy radiator, high-pressure header tank, swirl pot, Baileys breather system, Bosch black injectors, Cosworth fuel pump, Optmia battery, 150 amp alternator, HKS electronic boost conrtol, various chrome parts, vernier pulley, 3bar MAP sensor.

since these pics have been taken he has pulled his engine out and is replacing parts with higher performance ones, for more power

this figures from above show that this fiesta's only 50brake up on the one for sale, so if you still think the fiesta for sale isn't a muscle car, then your gonna look rather silly if you ever raced one

I've often wondered if its safe to have all that power in such a small car. Im not saying it wouldnt be great fun, cos it would be! But, how does a car so small cope with the power. Surely the chassis can only take so much strain. After all, the FRST only had 130bhp as standard and this has almost double!

That would be rapid mate and it is fine to have 246bhp in that as the reccomended bhp for a front wheel drive car is about 320bhp!

I thought it was 230bhp :rolleyes:

Its more likely to be 230 bhp coz isnt there gunna be a Focus Cosworth out in a couple of years and that will be 4WD to handle the increased power. Its now gunna be around 280 bhp i believe.

The mk3.5 is a stronger car than the Mk3 so will cope easily.
Saab reakon that 250 brake is the maximum useable power in a fwd car, so they build a 270brake 9-5 something or other lmao!

oh yea that is awsome wished i could afford it itd b well ace pissing all over scoobys and evos!!!!!!

1.8, 2.0 into a 1.6 is easy, from what i've seen/heard/read putting a turbo in there as well isn't to easy or cheap, fecking fast though
