I personally consider Christian the oracle on anything CVH based. IMO, there is not a better prepared ERST in the country and as I keep telling him, his talents are wasted on a bean-tin Wink

On that note - does anyone know if he is still "on the scene" or has he decided to give the RS thing a pass nowadays? I have a few select questions before i start blowing the GDP of a small africian nation on engine parts.....

I told you to do the Zetec you lemon Tongue

He went all funny and bought a Renault for some reason. He does pop onto passionford now and again I think!

Its not always about speed and power - its about doing something thats never been done before. I'd just like a few answers!

I'll prob do both - one is likely to break on a track day Crying

It'll only break if you strap the head to the block with bailing string Crying

Build it properly and it'll stick together thumbsup

You say about doing something different, but to be fair, there's not much that hasn't been done. There's (sadly) been YB powered Fiestas, Zetec turbo Fiestas, XE Fiestas, Scooby Fiestas, and I'm pretty sure I've seen a V6 Fiesta. Not seen a V8 Fiesta though...

Go on...Fiesta RS2000 has a ring to it...

Well if i told you all the things i had planned, it wouldnt be so special, but last month's newsletter article was a hint. Trust me, this's not been done before.

ANYWAY - NOT THE THREAD FOR THIS!!!

Exactly

As said in your main thread, forget the Zetec and stick with the original plan Steve Wink

In regards to APT, i sent through a message about setting up my Fiesta when i first got it and never even got a reply.......... therefore, that seemed to back up what i'd heard about not being interested in Fords anymore!

Think you'll find the Ford element of APT (Christian) has moved on, and Gary's only interested in Evos and the like, so that might explain it Steve...
