Re: LX and GT

Depends on the year. There are 3 generations of escorts, they dont all have the same motor.

Re: LX and GT

So where do you get a turbo for a 1.9L or should I not even bother and just swap engines?

I already have a booster fuel pump and an FMU(Fuel Management Unit...increases fuel pressure under boost to make the injectors spay more fuel in to keep the air/fuel ratio happy under boost conditions).

I have friends that can weld and make me a manifold and I was just going to get a turbo off of a WRX or STi *al la people sellig their stock turbos on Ebay* and slap on there. That and the oil lines/fittings..might cost me 1000.00 since I can do all the work other then making the manifold.
