has any one turbo'd an frp?

[fluke]

i have seen kits for the zetec S ect to fit turbo's, just curious if any body has done this with an frp or considered it?

People have done it with standard 1.7s and I imagine you'd probably need to lose the FRP manifold anyway so it'd not be any different except from the cams.

Thats wat i thought, just wanted to know if there was a way around that

yep, it wouldn't be an FRP anymore...but i'm sure with the right budget and quality work it could be a pretty awesome drive...

My dream FRP would be a turbo and a progressive Wizards of NOS kit to spin it up quicker...

can't see it hapnin tho...

I was at Santa Pod a few years ago chatting to a chap with a RS200 powered Mk 1 Escort drag racer
He was getting about 800BHP out of the evolution engine but with massive Turbo lag.
So was using a progressive NOS set up to eliminate it.
Very Very clever
As the Boost came up the NOS went down.

I forget the fellas name, big in hill climb/time attack he used a gas turbine engine to prevent turbo lag (or something like that) will see if i can find a video sometime!
