zep Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 Apparantly it's not all that easy aye man, I have seen one rotor escort, fucking mean tho. An auto one might help you bit, but i guess you don't have that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerm Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 yeha apparently its quite hard you need to mount the engine on a mega angle cos of the steering shit... its do-able though there is a badrotor one... look on te site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dattohoe Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 lets not forget the turbo exhaust manfold which with twin turbs will definitly not fit in that narrow engine bay next to and past the steering rack etc... fully custom manifold is what might be called for my friend.

mattmarrx3 Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 its not that hard it takes time and some $$ you dont mount the enginge on a angle other wise the box will be pissed as well and drive sharft change the front cover to a 12a turbo or 12a make a hole for the turbo return hose make a turbo maniflod mont the turbo up and forward get a new computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerm Posted March 24, 2004 Share Posted March 24, 2004 check the badrotor site their is a green one on there... they have a rough outline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridgeport Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 the engine is mounted on an angle to clear the steering box and you need to make a new zorst manifold to fit the turbo in there somewhere check my site http://www.ROTOR.tk i did a basic write up on a 12a n/a conversion some of which might help very good idea tho it would be original (sorta) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
