We have now finished the 1st 2.3 conversion in a fiesta st.

The car was dropped off, 1 week later the engine was built and fitted.

Engine was built up to the following spec:

high comp pistons from cosworth
forged con rods from cosworth
cosworth 2.3 duratec block
cosworth 250+ spec cams
Jamsport ported head
uprated cylinder head components
injectors and fuel rail changed
cosworth inlet
quaiffe atb
paddle clutch

plus many more parts

the car is running with the aid of a re-map on and the dreamscience product, however due to wanting more power from the car and fitting more components this will be removed in order to fit a standalone system we supply called gotech MFI Pro X

we have no power figures as yet due to the engine being run in, but it will be fully maped in the new year.

proof:


soon ready for fitting




Its in:


and running:






Happy Christmas.
